   Perhaps not at the beginning, but as the discussion went further you   
   were suggesting a lot of things - like that you just wrote.   
      
   > merely claiming that you (plural) don't.   
      
   I can't speak for the behalf of others, but I never claimed to be an   
   expert or an insider.

   That was my personal opinion - based on information that had been   
   available. Perhaps some of my assertions needed correction. I don't deny   
   that. Now that I admitted that we can move on to seek the "truth" about   
   _your_ claims.   
      
   Well David: were there threats to "kill" Finland or not?
