Putin links Ukraine to Moscow massacre without evidence
The suspected gunmen “tried to hide and moved toward Ukraine,” Russian president says in televised address. Kyiv denies any involvement.
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin on Saturday suggested that terrorists who killed at least 133 people in Friday night’s attack at a Moscow concert hall were helped by someone based in Ukraine, without providing evidence.
Ukrainian officials have denied any involvement in the massacre, for which Islamic State has claimed responsibility. It was one of the deadliest attacks on Russian soil in recent years.
Putin said 11 people have been detained in the killings, including the four gunmen. “They tried to hide and moved toward Ukraine, where, according to preliminary data, a window was prepared for them on the Ukrainian side to cross the border,” Putin said in a speech on Russian television Saturday.
I point to the US and the CIA
iTs a CoNsPirAcY!
Seriously though, was that really your default answer?
From the group that's never had to retract a story due to inaccuracies
The history of how ISIS formed is common knowledge. Without a doubt, the US had a part in it due to the number of years that were spent in the middle east. By the same token, you could say that many organizations in many countries "created ISIS".
Do you not comprehend that the title of that article is still click bait? If you read the paragraph immediately after, it walks back from the click-bait title almost immediately.
Also, who the fuck shares screenshots as a reference? Do you think this is Twitter or something?
The US uses their creation ISIS as a rotating villain to create the circumstances and manufacturer people's consent for war.
You got all that from a headline, eh?
It's obvious you are just on a mission to troll. That, or you are legitimately damaged.
Regardless, some self-awareness might help: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0963721417718261
Go to one of your Tankie instances. The US literally warned them a couple weeks ago.
You mean the exact same warning that Blinken is now trying to deny that they had knowledge of? In the same way that Biden threatened the Nordstrearm 2 pipeline a few weeks before it was bombed? The US is a terrorist Nation that has always projected what they were about to do
Do I have to repeat myself? Stop with the alternate reality clownery and fuck off into your Tankie bubble. The US warned Russia a couple weeks ago, and then again a couple days ago, which Putin himself, personally, called bullshit, dismissing it. And now he tries to blame Ukraine for it.
It was either Ukraine or the US, mostly likely the US.
Yeah, and Russia clearly committed 9/11 while putting Iraq's WMDs inside the planes to make the following US invasion look ridiculous.
Who let you out of lemmy.ml?
Bullet-proof arguments you bring to the table there bud. /s
Wouldnt be the first time the US staged events to trigger larger scale war. Remember when the US planned Operations to bomb civilian areas of Miami to blame Cuba in Operation Northwoods. Lied about WMD to invade other countries?
And how is that proof for this attack? You could use the same argument with Putin with his Moscow Apartment Bombings. Those weren't just some hypothetical plan.
There is nothing here pointing towards a Russian false flag. It simply seems like ISIS being the horrible terrorist organization it is.
I have no love for the CIA but why is a self-named anti-colonialist defending an autocratic, imperialistic, murderous, kleptocracy? Capitalism sucks and the USA has all sorts of horrible problems but is really Putin and his thugs really what want to get behind?
The enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
Point to where I defended anyone. I was pointing out the US has a history of false flags and pointing fingers at other groups as a precursor to a larger event.
