Car bombing in Moscow

Ukraine denies orchestrating the car bombing, and since all they've done so far is send drones to Crimea or just over their eastern border, it doesn't sound too plausible that they'd be able to send saboteurs to install a car bomb in a target's car in the heart of Russia.

Which begs the question: Who did it and why?

Is it a false flag operation by Putin's government to torture or execute Ukrainian POWs, or step-up attacks? But right now both armies are taking a breather because they've run out of able bodies. Is it the work of anti-war or anti-ultranationalist Russians?

Car bombings have been rare in Russia for several decades now. This is very mysterious.

I can’t think of in-Russia assassinations that were not most likely done by Russia.

They won't. They've been cowed for centuries.

Russian history isnt your strong suit.

Yes, they've had revolutionary moments. But the broad swath of their history has been strongmen leaders and acquiescent serfs. They don't have culture of bottom-up governance that is required for anything approaching modern liberal democracy. You can see it in the dramatically different trajectory of Ukrainian politics. Ukraine has a ways to go, but they are on a whole different path.

There are no cultural differences between Russians and Ukrainians politically. Whoever says otherwise is just reading talking points.

Ukrainians say otherwise, and yes those are their talking points.

Well they would say that, wouldn’t they.

Russia has plenty of intelligence operatives in Ukraine and it is fair to assume Ukraine has plenty of operatives in Russia. Ukrainians and Russians are indistinguishable in looks and accent, and the border is porous.

Interesting. The man in question was supposed to get in the car with his daughter, but at the last minute he changed his mind. There's a video circulating online supposedly showing him on the sidewalk watching the car go up in flames.

Wouldnt be stunning. The guy was a total psycho. He is behind a lot of the white nationalist stuff in the US.

If this is the work of Ukrainians, does it change anything?

Yes. People in Russia will become more concerned about their own safety.

Ukrainians are dedicated fighters, but they don't have the capacity to attack in Moscow.

And I don't think this ultranationalist guy without close ties to the Kremlin would be their first target.

He is extremely close to the Kremlin.

How much capacity does a car bomb really need?

I find the pp's statement odd. The Ukrainian military certainly has the capability to lauch attacks inside Russia. And the comment that Dugin has no close ties to the Kremlin is just false, very false. He is definitely one of the most prominent Kremlin figures in Russia.
