Notice how all of Putin’s enemies run away to the UK and get assassinated in the UK - Litvinenko, Berezovsky, Skripal?
Kinda weird don’t you think? Almost as if Mi6 has a connection to all of Putin’s enemies?

Well to be precise this isn't an unsolved case. Polonium traces were found in the hotel and also in the café(in significant amounts) where the three had a meeting earlier but couldn't do it. One of the two guys was also dying of radioactive poisoning when UK officials went to Russia to interview them. So it's a pretty straightforward case it's just that UK couldn't get the Russians to admit it and/or face charges.

The way high frequency radiation works is by destroying your genetic code and tissue. It is a form of ionising radiation which is positioned in the dangerous section of the electromagnetic spectrum. Those frequencies are short wave frequencies aka high speed, and I know it sounds like an oxymoron but it's not, as the "short wave" refers to the length of a repeating pattern in said frequency's wave. Anyway, radiation starts becoming dangerous once we've gotten to the UV section and it is a type of colour that we do not have the ability to see, but birds can, for example. While UV-A, a form of radiation from sunlight, we can handle due to our skin containing melanin (unless you're albino), higher frequencies start damaging your skin and killing the cells (sunlight), reaching further into your body at even higher frequencies that pass through matter (X-ray) or straight up completely destroying your organic form (nuclear radiation). Extremely potent nuclear radiation, such as the leak that occurred in Chernobyl, is capable of destroying inorganic substances as well. The way that radiation occurs is by the deterioration of atomic nuclei (central component of an atom), and any material that contains such unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Radioactivity is not seen as neon green or neon yellow, we can't see it at all with our eyes.

It is important to note that this harmful radiation still can be experienced and survived without any complications if the exposure time is very short and the quantities are low. Unfortunately for Aleksandr, he was exposed to this radiation for weeks and from the inside. Oftentimes, those things that are radioactive look very unassuming, until you start feeling ill, your skin starts showing redness, feels like it's burning and it starts peeling, you start vomiting, your hair falls out, your organs start failing, etc. Most radioactive minerals and individual elements are silver but there are different ores containing radioactive elements, such as Autunite, that are green because of other elements/impurities in them, such as Phosphate in Autunite, I believe. Autunite can be bought for collections and is generally safe to keep as long as it exists away from you, such as in a container, preferably made out of glass, while it also must be ventilated due to its ongoing degradation and release of Radon gas, which is radioactive. I've been planning on getting a small specimen for a while but no luck as of yet. X-rays, while both dangerous AND crucial in modern medicine, they are fine for patients to experience from time to time. As I said, quantity and exposure time.

Tl;dr - Aleksandr's died due to the accumulation of radioactive material planted in his tea which phased energy through his body, destroying his cells.

To all the people talking about how alpha radiation can't give you radiation poisoning externally, that is true, but the way we're taught in school is a bit simplified; radiation "not being able" to penetrate something just means it has a reasonable chance of getting stopped, not that it will (except by huge amounts of lead). Radiation only has to reach dividing cells to cause issues, and skin cells do divide, so while I do believe no one else died of radiation poisoning, I wonder if there was an increase in skin cancer rates around this time, and possibly mouth cancer for those who used the poisoned crockery or other items that were washed with it.

I'm not so sure the assassins were 'bumbling' as such. Couldn't it have been possible that they tracked the poison around with the intent to cause a more widespread illness amongst the public and their target would be just one of many cases? I suppose the only issue with this theory is the contamination on his airplane seat, as that would be a direct link to the conspirators.

So in an American sense this would be like a CIA agent defecting to Russia then writing a book about how the CIA did 9/11 as a pretense for war, then was mysteriously poisoned. Idk about y’all, but I think the fact he was poisoned makes me believe what he’s saying is true😂
