I'm just going on the record for a moment re: the Italian journalist

[DS1]

I've argued in the past that this was too incredibly stupid to be a "hit". Since then, Negroponte's name popped up, and I'm now in full :tinfoilhat: mode.

That is all.

1. I'll join you.

2. You mean, just because he's known to have done this sort of thing before..

...you suspect him of having had 'wet work' done again?

I guess that's reasonable enough.

Hand me that Reynolds Wrap when you're done with it. :tinfoilhat:

3. Remember, shiny side out, otherwise it acts like a magnifier

:D

4. The moment I heard his name mentioned this morning I had no doubt.

Murderous thug that he is.

7. Since Negroponte's Name Has Been Invoked

I've considered the possibility that it wasn't necessarily a 'hit,' but a stern warning. I'm sure that if she was marked for elimination, she wouldn't be alive today.

Then there's the question...was Nicola Calipari the target of the hit?
