10:33 pm
their spying or intelligence on russia and releasing it to partly embarrass the russians, that we know what you are up to and we�*re going to tell the world, and partly to pre—empt what the americans and some the british forces and security services have been saying, that the russian plan is to release a fake video claiming that atrocities have been happening and then using that as an excuse to invade and they are trying to prick that balloon before it is set off. lots of interesting stories coming out and also this piece in the telegraph saying that the russian ambassador to sweden, i think it was saying we don�*t give a monkeys but he used a four letter word and saying we will do what we want and many people asking
