Well. That’s one way for Putin to get out of the conscription conundrum.
Guess he had to wait for his “election” to be over.
If Russians want a different future, they are going to need to find some courage to change things.
FSB will blame the attack on Ukrainians and Russians will believe this.
It's the same script that Putin used to invade Chechnya.
I am no fan of Putin but come on. Chechnya is and was part of Russia. Ukraine was given independence in 1991. I beg to differ!
Russia colonized Chechnya in the 1800s. They still speak their own language and have their own customs and traditions and religion.
What a ridiculous response.
It’s been part of Russia since, duh! It’s like saying the U.S. invaded TX
Well, more like if the U.S. had broken up in 1991 and we let California, Arizona and New Mexico go but then pulled Texas back in via a bloody war and an installed strongman despot governor. And if Texas primarily spoke a different language, practiced a different religion and was viewed as different race from the eastern U.S. then it would be more like that. Have you ever heard Muscovites talk about chechens? It is not nice. When I went to Russia, I was expecting anti semitism. The vast majority of Muscovite’s had no problem with Jews (and really envied the right of return as it was an easy way to leave Russia) but if they got started on Chechens or Muslims, it was pretty awful to hear. They blamed everything on them. I don’t hear people in DC talking about Texas that way!

Yes all of the -stans are being “seduced” with Islam right now, but this whole thing seems far fetched and like some sort of pretext for something.

Soon after the attack, photos of the passports of some the alleged attackers were shared online.
The Tajik minister of the interior was quick to put out a statement saying that, in at least two cases, the men in question could not be responsible as they had been in Tajikistan for months and had credible alibis.
All of this shows that, more than 12 hours after the attack, confusion still abounds.

I have a very hard time feeling any sympathy for them.

NP here. You clearly don’t know your history to give Texas as an example!
