Large ongoing terrorist attack in Moscow

Inherently this is the Russian government’s fault. They have blood on their hands.

Regardless of whose fault this is, such an attack could only have been made possible thanks to Putin’s invasion creating an incredible workload for Russian security agencies.

Putin clearly was not responding well to me outing him and was busy doing damage control.

Has Putin made an official statement yet?

If either Ukraine or Israel did it, I encourage them to learn from the Provos and what was necessary to get the Brits on the table for the Good Friday Accords.

I have a feeling this was organized by Putin as a false flag operation to pin it on Ukraine.

Possible, though I think it's more likely he was warned by his own intel and others (including the US, which according to his logic are such an evil enemy they warn him of a threat against his own people) and deliberatly let it happen for the same purpose. The man doesn't value human life at all, including lives of ordinary Russians. Otherwise he wouldn't send young men to die en masse for his imperial delusions.

Has there ever been a Russian leader who valued human life? I had a friend who was an avowed Russophile but openly admitted that they are the most cruel and unsentimental people in Europe.

I mean Russia did have Gorbachev and Yeltsin and while the latter was massively incompetent he still was far better on human rights than the vast majority of Russian leaders.

If Yeltsin was a competent leader , Russia may have become at least a Japanese style democracy by now

Yeah, Yeltsin generally had a laid back, chummy attitude. Unfortunately he was also a drunk.

When he was sober Yeltsin was not any better. If anything his drunkenness prevented him from being competent enough to do more damage.

Same reason why none in the Western media bubble gave a peep about the Kerman attacks, politics reigns supreme.
