Murder? Really? WTF?

Gilbert Doctorow: 'the main purpose of the ‘cancel Navalny’ operation was to wipe away the positive PR impact of Tucker Carlson’s interview with Putin (that garnered 1 billion ‘hits').... [and there is] '...the remarkable timing of the murder of Navalny, coming as it has in the month before Russian presidential elections, just as happened six years ago when the Skripal poisonings in Salisbury, U.K. captured global news to the detriment of Vladimir Putin....' - https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2024/02/18/after-trt-world-failed-to-post-my-interview-on-the-death-of-navalny/

It could be, except that I kind of doubt that the British "intelligence" still has assets able to perform such tasks in Russia?

I remember how I first heard about Navalny: it was on RT a video released by the FSB; Navalny's team was meeting British "intelligence" agents in a restaurant and were nonchalantly, asking them for "a few millions of dollars" (in English - of course), explaining that they would get so much more in return once they would have won the elections...

... but what to the Russians think of Navalny?

well, they put him away, didn't they....

also there's Scott Atlas: '...- Alexei Navalny's political activities were funded by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) as part of an effort to repeat US-backed 2014 Ukraine regime change inside Russia itself;

- The Western media had previously (and reluctantly) revealed Navalny as far-right, racist, and xenophobic despite efforts to pass him off as a progressive pro-democracy activist;

- US government-funded polling agencies consistently found Alexei Navalny extremely unpopular in Russia with single digit approval ratings;

- After an alleged 2020 "Novichok" poisoning, Navalny's popularity "surged" to 20% as the Western media accused Moscow of being behind the incident;

- The US is now exploiting the death of Navalny to advance its anti-Russia policy while the Western media collective omits all relevant context regarding Navalny's background and US funding .... '- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uRXkw3_0BE

George Szamuely is wrong; there is NO force on this planet able to prevent the defeat of Ukraine on the battlefield...

What exactly makes him think that the conflict would just simmer down and the Russian will just shy away?

At Avdeevka, Ukraine army was defeated; this was not a change of strategy but military defeat.

Update-- Scott Ritter talks more about the Navalny case on his Ask the Inspector show 137, today 2/20/24, first 15 minutes or so. And he alleges that Navalny's wife and lawyer visited him inprison on Feb. 14 and brought him medicine, gifts etc...... How convenient! Part 2 of Scott's article on Navalny is coming soon, beginning with a quote from Godfather II. Think of Frankie Five Angels....

of course it is "they" (at the top of the pyramid) who allow the dollar-based system to get replaced by another system, i.e. the BRICS. however, any system based on a one-size-fits-all approach will eventually either fail (look at the US'debt) or develop into another one that is different (if not "better").
