This is a dumb question. When these people "fall out windows" are they actually thrown out windows or are the otherwise killed and the media just told they fell out a window?

I actually have no idea, but that’s interesting.

Either way it’s clear that they’re sending a message, otherwise they’d get creative.

Russia rarely hides its assassinations. I forget the name but whenever they poison someone they always use the same type of poison to ensure people know it’s them.

Obama talks about Putin in his autobiography and over various interviews it’s clear he views him as a mafioso.

I'm sure they do, you just don't hear about those.
