So Russia likes to use poison and radioactive poo poo to assassinate people.

Cancer causing poo poo.

Brain Cancer causing poo poo some might say.

That cartoon shows an ice ax. Ice picks were really common before fridges to break up the chunks of ice used to cool food. They are also handy for at-home lobotomies.

my favorite theoretical assassination weapon is a tiny bomb made of anti-matter that has the strength of a grenade but is so tiny you need a microscope to see it.

I was trying to be clever and find some round about way of saying Russia assassinated John McCain by giving him cancer and were slightly foiled when it was discovered early during the removal of a blood clot above his eye elongating the process of his inevitable demise. But no one bit and I got side tracked with Ice Pick assassinations being cooler than death by radioactive isotopes in your morning coffee.

lol

a gram of antimatter would probably cost billions to produce

much cheaper to just strap a grenade to a quadcopter drone imo

Russia. A huge leap out of communism only to immediately fall under the command of a dictator and they cant even see it.

one central tenet of marxist theory is that the material substructure shapes the societal superstructure (culture and so on). and people say the KGB was so lethal because they were communists and all, and communists are dastardly like that. but russians have been creative assassins this whole time so either:

+ marxism is wrong

+ russia is still communist

the west like to pretend its the descendants of the imperial family of Rome but Russia of course resembles best the dynasties of Roman Empire

this is because of that reported "fast acting cancer" that was rife amongst witnesses and persons of interest in the Kennedy Assassination investigation right?
