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.
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.
