because anything that makes Russia look bad must be untrue
/sarc
Imagine you are a Russian Intelligence operative on salary and doing your duty each day.
There is a gathering of other operatives and their bosses at a party at Lubyanka Square. The vodka is flowing and the caviar on Russian bread circulating on trays.
Then comes the big moment.
“Please share with us your greatest accomplishment of the past fiscal quarter.”
The Estonia Centre guy steps forward and announces:
“I had some car windows broken!! That’s what the Russian taxpayer got from me the past 3 months!”
Who believes these stories? Who would believe the FSB would pay for this?
They also broke off all the car FM radio antennas. The proof being that no estonian government official’s car has an intact antenna on it.
