Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

i’m honestly not sure if the us had an active role in this, nor do i think the us would necessarily warn their own citizens if they did. but i am curious how strong us signal intelligence is within russia. did these terrorists operate from within russia and was the us able to pick up on their activity there? did they operate from within ukraine, where us intelligence has far better access? did they eavesdrop on fsb activity? something else entirely?
just saw while typing this that islamic state claimed responsibility, i have no clue where this is going tbh
Islamic State? ISIS... Oh ... that's definitely CIA.
re: isis
in the news mega, there's a telegram post using the cyrillic alphabet saying that isis hasn't used that template in years and thus it is a fake, though cnn is running it as real so
edit: here's the thread i was referencing careful if you go digging into that megathread as there is a lot of CONTENT WARNING videos in there right now that you absolutely do not have to see
lmao i’m not surprised, they’re pretty irrelevant nowadays
Corruption was rife after the fall of the USSR. Businessmen and politicians were selling their mothers for a Mercedes Benz. A lot were purged after Putin got elected, but Russia is a big country. I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the US’ assets are still active. Especially after sanctions and oligarchs’ money were frozen or seized? They have many reasons to attack their own country
