LOL on the foreign measures! Anytime I come across a recipe with them, I skip to the next one no matter how good it looks because I can't be bothered with messing around wiht the conversions!
So the spy says he was poisoned, but in actuality, he was selling the Polonium to Islamic terrorists. Like the dufus he was, he actually screwed up and exposed himself to it. Then, his buddies got exposed.
Once it became clear he was dying, he blamed Putin who he hates for crushing the Chechnyan rebellion..composed of Islamic fascist terrorists.
Dunno... not much of a punch line, but it has a punch!
Problem with that theory is he was not a 'dufus'. He was ex-KGB. They do not hire 'dufuses'. The 7 bartenders being contaminated rules Scaramella completely out of the picture. On the day he was poisoned, Litveninko visited with Scaramella who just happened to have a hit list stating a group of Russian agents/ex-agents (called Dignity and Honor) had put Litveninko and Scaramella on a hit list. Scaramella thought he was implicated because he knew something about the fact that prominent Italian Leftist politicians were double agents working for Russia. Litveninko may have already been poisoned while he was reading that email hit list. Imagine the odds of that being just happenstance.
