    I’m amazed no one has pointed out the possibility that this was staged by Putin himself as a prerequisite to enforce greater surveillance, military and police presence, claim opposition and Ukraine to be terrorists, and so on. This is, besides a malfunction, much more likely than a failed assassination attempt that went this badly, doesn’t have a suspect, and got reported on.

      We can rule out a Ukrainian assassination attempt. They have a pretty good track record of success.

      We’ll know if it’s a false flag if Putin immediately freaks out and increases his personal security or suddenly relocates to one of his bitch bunkers.

        I mean, it wouldn’t do to advertise failed attempts. And honestly, even if this was a failed Ukrainian assassination attempt, the fact that they legit blew putin’s limo up is kind of huge.

        Honestly I though putin already spent 90% of his time in a bitch bunker. Ukraine has already demonstrated the capability of striking Moscow and beyond, long ago, several times over.
