NATO marching towards Vladivostok?
Because Putin has forsworn his nukes?

Just trying to introduce a little pro Ukraine style hyperbole.
Just goes to show how people are "triggered" by somewhat flippant comments yet pay little regard to more significant ideas that have not been canvassed to death in the "look here, don't look there" general media.

Commit war crimes around the world as a matter of business, someone's going to return the favour.

Ukraine's new defence minister is a muslim. I am no expert on propaganda however I would assume it is rather simple to connect a muslim defence minster and an ISIS terrorist attack to help ones own cause. Apparently America had been warning Russia of an imminent attack and the police took over an hour to respond. Incompetence? Using this as a tool to rally support? Who knows but it is interesting.
In regards to your "Commit war crimes around the world" comment. What country does not commit so called war crimes? Australia is no princess in that regard.

The Queens Council barrister I used once taught me in regards to crime "cui bono". It is a latin word that means "who benefits". More often than not there is a high probability that those responsible for a certain event are the ones who have the most to gain from it.

That's quite true, alexjones.
However, the Russians are almost as good at maskirovka, deception and misdirection, as the Chinese.
Putin has finally called his war, war.
They're planning another mobilisation, Russian governments have very scant regard for life and liberty, even of their own kind, they've been heavily conscripting from the Muslim regions and using them as de-mining drones, even conning people from places like Nepal into coming to Russia for "work" then putting them in mine "clearing" units.

Russia was instrumental in changing the course of the war in Syria against IS, they've brutalised the Muslim Chechens for decades, then we have the Afghans with their Pashtun blood fued mentality, plenty of Muslims would love to do a Beirut unload into a crowd of Russians.
Cui bono indeed, alexjones, in relation to this attack.
Putin, I'd guess.
I'm mot suggesting, mchughcb, that it was of Russian origin, I am suggesting that it would be uncharacteristic of Putin to not try to pin it on the people he's been murdering for the last 10yrs.

I saw a report this morning by a British intel specialist who suggested that Putin ignored the warning, no doubt thinking that it was the Yanks trying to stir the Russian pot.
The reasoning was that he thought that because it's exactly what he would do.
People who bullsh!t as a matter of course always expect others do so

I am pretty sure it was old Joseph Goebbels who said "Accuse the other of that you are guilty.”
So when you are in deep it is hard to tell what is the reality.
