i know they don't operate in Moscow
this is the question you need to ask.. who else could conceivably accomplish this? who but Putin could get a team of heavily armed men to a theater in Moscow, while Russia is at war? if it's too complicated for you to understand that nobody else would want to attack a Moscow theater, because there is nothing to gain..
Your suggestion is that... Russia has such an advanced counter-espionage system (in the largest country in the world, mind you) that no spies or terrorists could get in?
you seem to be unable to recognize the complexity of this little operation.. i'd like to see you get close to completing that mission without any interference from Russian security forces.. even American intelligence knew it was coming, but somehow all of Russian Intelligence and Security forces were completely ignorant, and could do nothing about it.. and now, they know only that some mysterious guy on the internet arranged it all.. it's hilarious watching you try to swallow the official story..
if you are afraid of the US, i understand, and this makes you want to blame them
There's already been an interview released with an attacker. He was paid to do it.
he was paid to give that story, so that you will believe what you want to believe.. Russians want to believe Putin, it's pathetic.. and they go die in Ukraine in their hundreds of thousands because of it..
Paid to lose an ear as well? Impressive.
Edit: content warnings on this community and all, there's videos of FSB cutting off and feeding a terrorist their own ear.
but it still doesn't amaze you that absolutely nobody in all of the Russian security apparatus saw this coming, or knew these guys were in town for some reason.. that's interesting..
Your claim is that... Russia knows where every individual in Russia is at any given time?
it's amazing your mind goes to that extreme in order to excuse Putin.. truly amazing to see..
and anyway, what good is Putin? his Army can't win on the battlefield, and he can't even keep theaters safe at home..
So your claim is that Putin is hapless, which explains Ukraine, but that he's also a mastermind, which explains the attacks in Moscow? Odd how contradicting details seems to align in favour of your worldview.
i'm saying he's only good at one thing: terrorism.. and he has all of Russia licking his boots.. like dogs..
