Give Ukraine more money or else the ear-cutter-offers will cut off your ears, because “this is the stuff Russians do”. This is the most psychotic, xenophobic propaganda tweet I’ve seen in quite some time. What a loser.
ISIS releases graphic video they claim shows Russia concert hall attack From CNN's Kareem El Damanhoury and Paul Murphy ISIS-affiliated news agency Amaq released a graphic video on Saturday that purports to show Friday’s attack at a concert hall in suburban Moscow recorded by one of the attackers, suggesting the perpetrators had a direct link to ISIS in order to be able to send the video. CNN has geolocated it to the concert hall and notes that its identifying metadata has been erased. The video, which is about 90 seconds long, shows four attackers with their faces blurred and voices distorted in what appears to be the Crocus City Hall complex. The video shows one attacker signaling to another gunman, who then walks past a door where people are hiding and opens fire on them. Bodies and blood can be seen on the floor, with fire raging at a distance. The video also shows one of the attackers slitting the throat of a man lying on his back. The video ends with the four attackers walking away inside the building as smoke can be seen at a distance. On Friday, ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack, according to a short statement published by Amaq. On Saturday, Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested Ukraine was behind the attack, stating the perpetrators had “tried to hide and moved towards Ukraine, where, according to preliminary data, a window was prepared for them on the Ukrainian side to cross the border.” Ukraine has vehemently denied any connection to Friday's attack. I appreciate the second amendment and the ability for my family to protect themselves or others if needed too.
A lot of questions. Even though USA warned russia just a few days earlier that there might be attacks on (among others) concert venues. not even one armed guard outside the venue? No anti-terrorist spetnatz or national guard (HQ 12 minutes away) or other police arrived within an hour. This is in the center of Moscow. Somehow they find the perpetrators in a situation where they do not fight back and are easily captured? Russia either arranged this attack or allowed it to happen even though they knew about it. However, most likely this ploy will fail. People will not unite around Putin but instead will wonder why he can't keep them safe. Kasparov and Trofimov also believe this is a failure.
From what I have read, the perpetrators have not confessed to being paid by ISIS but only by unknown persons. Of course who knows what people will confess to after having their ear cut off and/or genitals electro-shocked. As the Ukrainians said. why would they flee towards the heavily guarded Ukrainian border?
@igorsushk March 24th - Russian military intelligence GRU Colonel Igor Salikov has become increasingly convinced the Crocus City Hall terror attack was a botched and poorly executed inside job by the Russian security services. Salikov defected from Russia last year.
Not sold on the inside job theory. If it was an inside job, the shooters would have been killed when they were caught. The Russians are looking for a trail, not trying to cover one up.
How do you know they weren't? You're assuming the people paraded in front of the cameras today were the same that did the shooting.
Because, if they were not the shooters. Instead of cutting off an ear to make them talk. Their tongues would be cut off to keep them quite. You only play a tough mod dog on the internet. But you do not know real life tough guy rules.
Israel has admitted to funding ISIS in the past, which is important when remembering that Israel claims Hamas is ISIS every chance it gets. No way is ISIS a legitimate organization that was formed on its own.
