Until someone claims responsibilty and/or irrefutable evidence.  I reckon it would be careless for anyone to align with any given position.
 
 


Cmon Mark... Russia would never claim responsibility. Putin seems to take great pleasure in taking the p***roverbial. Like the ‘unidentifiable’ troops in the Ukraine and The airliner that got blown out of the sky by a Russian SAM. How much proof do you need?

Maybe the best way to play him at his own game should be done through the one thing that Russia really values in Britain.... the financial market. Skilfully applied freezing of the financial assets and properties held in the UK by his closest associates would be a good start. Make his closest friends feel the pain by hitting them hard in the pocket.
Even in the unlikely event that he had nothing to do with it, he’s still due a straightener.

Well that makes sense.  How does one straighten a nuclear super power?

Bang on. Annex all property over say £1million that are owned by Russian citizens, Then hand them to the homeless, i.e.half of London.......... She ain't got the balls mind. Nor any other politician.

Not an easy one for sure, but should we continue rolling over and letting him have his way....


Hit him where it hurts, financially.
But do it so that it’s his mates that are getting squeezed. Do it with ruthlessness and in such a way that they start to get seriously disgruntled, then disunity sets in and his power base gets weakened. Putin isn’t an idealist, he’s just a gangster at the end of the day. Granted a pretty exceptional one but the bottom line is it’s all about money for him and his firm. The ordinary Russians love him because he’s “making Russia great again”.
Start turning the screws on Iran.
Start weakening his hold on Syria, making it harder for him to dock his ships in warm water ports.
A bit of reciprocal cyber aggression.
He’s not going to go away but us and the rest of the world are letting him get away with murder.
