Could also be spot on. There is precedent, mind.Too early for this kind of stuff. Bad in taste from that account. We don't know anything yet.
In what possible way does this resemble a Call of Duty mission except for the fact that it involves terrorism in Russia?Uh oh... Is this a repeat of the 1999 Russian apartments bombing or the emulation of Call of Duty's No Russian scenario?

And yet if there's a school shooting in the US and the right calls it a false flag, we consider it disgraceful. As this is, right up until the moment when there's actually literally any evidence for it. It's not like there haven't been terrorist attacks in Russia that haven't been false flags.Could also be spot on. There is precedent, mind.
I don't understand why anyone would ever actively seek out that kind of footage, I have to admit. It can't be good for you.PM me.
We consider it disgraceful because there hasn't been precedent for it in this country (yet). It's completely conjured up out of thin air.And yet if there's a school shooting in the US and the right calls it a false flag, we consider it disgraceful.

I'm already broken dude.I don't understand why anyone would ever actively seek out that kind of footage, I have to admit. It can't be good for you.
The apartment bombings were very likely a false flag attack. There is no similarity between that situation and this one, nor is the political need for an attack there like there was for the apartment bombings. Putin already enjoys overwhelming support in Russia. It's also in bad taste for that guy to jump on that so quickly in such bad faith when videos are still rolling out of people being killed. There's really no logical argument to suggest that this is an FSB job, they simply don't need it.Tweet

In that case you definitely shouldn't seek it out.I'm already broken dude.
Has there ever been precedent for this sort of false flag op in the US in recent history though? It's not like Putin doesn't have previous...no surprise at all that peoples minds go there. Awful stuff...thoughts with all affected.And yet if there's a school shooting in the US and the right calls it a false flag, we consider it disgraceful.

I was thinking exactly the same thing.Could also be spot on. There is precedent, mind.
Disagree, Putin 'officially' enjoys overwhelming support but it's not like the polls are reliable. I think it's a pretty logical knee jerk speculation.The apartment bombings were very likely a false flag attack.

Agree with this. Sad state of the world when conspiracy theories are the first reaction to awful tragedies.And yet if there's a school shooting in the US and the right calls it a false flag, we consider it disgraceful.

But, again, there's very real precedent in Russia in living memory. In the US not so much.Agree with this. Sad state of the world when conspiracy theories are the first reaction to awful tragedies.
They warned Iran too: https://www.reuters.com/world/us-pr...threat-ahead-islamic-state-attack-2024-01-25/That death toll is going to keep rising, hostage situation too which Russia doesn't have a great track record of dealing with effectively. Hope our resident Muscovite(s) are safe.
Interesting that US intelligence forewarned it.
Nothing off the top of my head, but the CIA has to have done something at some point. If nothing else to frame the Black Panthers or something. Or murdering MLK Jr.Has there ever been precedent for this sort of false flag op in the US in recent history though?

Now THAT'S speculative conspiracy!Nothing off the top of my head, but the CIA has to have done something at some point. If nothing else to frame the Black Panthers or something. Or murdering MLK Jr.
More the FBI was a possibility with those two.Nothing off the top of my head, but the CIA has to have done something at some point. If nothing else to frame the Black Panthers or something. Or murdering MLK Jr.
Is not. In some of these cases is actually proven officially. Not CIA but other government agenciesNow THAT'S speculative conspiracy!
Yeah true, the CIA was just doing all of that in other countries (except this time it's confirmed).More the FBI was a possibility with those two.
The MLK assassination would be a pretty different conversation though, wouldn't it? Taking one, carefully chosen target out vs indiscriminate civilian casualties.More the FBI was a possibility with those two.
