By the looks of it, such a fast response, swat teams and ambulances on the scene must have used US warning.
Well....

“The Embassy is monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and US citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours,” the country’s mission in Moscow wrote on X.

But days later, on March 19, Russian President Vladimir Putin snubbed that warning about possible attacks in Moscow, and described it as “blackmail”.

A brand new, comprehensive face-recognition system across Moscow that has been widely used to identify opposition protesters also failed to stop Friday’s attack.

And it took authorities an hour and a half to deploy special forces to the site in the Moscow suburb of Krasnogorsk because of heavy traffic jams."

Some inconsistencies between official reports and eyewitness accounts of the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall.

He's a Ukrainian patriot. Let's just file this away as an example of propaganda against the enemy during a time of war.

No doubt, Russians will form their own web of conspiracy theories. That's what happens when the state controls all avenues of access to information and feeds their own people with large daily doses of disinformation.

Of course, Putin will use this to arrest anybody he wants to arrest. This isn't helpful to Ukraine's cause in the short term. Hard to say if it will destabilize Putin over time. Probably not, is my guess.

That all said, I grieve for the Russian people. They almost never get a break. No good will come from this for them.

No virtue points for me on this one...

Every day Russians kill 42 Ukrainian civilians on average, for the past years, just the civilian casualties. Potentially, millions, if not billions of people, will follow. Putin would still have won the elections if they hadn't fabricated the outcome to show massive support in order to suppress the minor opposition from potentionally growing.

...will send you all postcards from hell. :neutral:

Hate feeling like a brightfart fantasist, but it is hard to not consider the terrorist attack on Isreal taking hours to respond to (with all the info leading up to the attack we know about now too) and their current justice avoiding dictator using it as a way to amplify his war on the Palestinian people, and Putin's ignoring the warnings of this terrorist attack on his citizens that he wants to use to justify the amplification of his war with Ukraine.

What's next is China going to get hit by some bullshit terror attack that they will claim they had no idea about so they can blame Taiwan and we all take one step closer to ww3?

No Shit,ALTERNATIVE FACTS,thanks Kelley Anne Conway for rolling a snow ball down the mountain.That was a real decent gesture by the US intell. showing Putin we STILL value innocent lives,He's gonna spin what he has to,to cover his ass,but he should damn well take note that we didn't let animosity get in the way of what's right,then again his warped KGB mind might interpret it as weakness for all I know.

The Russians are saying the terrorist's were heading for Ukraine. The funny thing is that they ere close to Belarus and they had Belarus license plates. Another inconsistency was that one of the terrorist said he was paid with a bank card. One that is only good in Russia. Either they were real stupid or something does not add up.
Think I will push for the "something does not add up " theory.....tbh..

I was skimming today and there were some other interesting things. No security personnel killed, the getaway car (with Belarus plates) was detained with Belarus border guards. So much for them escaping through to Ukraine when Russia is all over the border area. There was another thing but since that was hours ago, well, it is gone.

Like i am not surprised the Russian would do this..........the finger pointing has begun, and it's not ISIS, or IS-k....even though they have claim responsibility.......

this is Putin response....


and i don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me today, but doesn't Putin's head look super imposed?

the second one is Simonyan, the head of RT and propagandist (P.s the Hague is looking for her as well)


she's basically reiterating what Putin is saying

also nother thing that weird if you've seen the vid of the people captured, do they really look like people who did this...btw there already in court, kinda quick if you ask me.....

This is an article from Julia Davis she runs the Russian Media Monitor on YT you can also catch her on Twitter as well....

Either google or twitter will not find the post for me, this is something I have been thinking off but not how they could combat the drones. This is a great step in the direction.


And something that is not always apparent. In 2014 the Russians stole Ukrainian warships.


Russians not using the Crimea bridge to transport weapons? I guess they are thinking if the bridge has no military value the Ukrainians will not target it?

Blame Canada. I mean, Ukraine, and the West.
