    Russia vs NATO is not to be feared, but should be understood as extremely dangerous for all parties.

    I would understand it as the beginning of the end of Putinism and the neo KGB regime in Russia.

    Solovyov was squawking about hitting NATO targets ....as in US bases in Poland, Romania, Czech Republic.

    Desperation?....or worse to come?

    Russia is proving once again that no one is safe in a police state -- not even the police.

    They do seem determined to blame anyone but ISIS so far.

    Probably because if the Orcs try to go after ISIS hard....the entire South Caucasus will burn like a Roman candle.

    ISIS is America’s enemy too but the war in Gaza has turned that around. Our enemies now occupy government positions in Washington.

    23 Mar: GAME OF ELIMINATION. RUSSIANS JOIN THE BATTLE IN THE AIR. | War in Ukraine Explained


    A good explanation of naZi attacks on Ukraine's power grid and how it relates to their battlefield objectives. It comes down to how Ukraine manages its air defenses. The fascists want them to move those away from the front lines so that they can achieve local air superiority to help them break through Ukrainian defensive lines more quickly than they can build them.

    The Russians' alternate propaganda reality hinders their ability to confront real world problems.
    Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, March 23, 2024
    Mar 23, 2024 - ISW Press
    [​IMG]


    Russian authorities claimed to have arrested the four attackers and seven others involved in the March 22 “Crocus City Hall” concert venue attack, which Russian authorities reported killed at least 133 civilians. ISW assesses that the Islamic State (IS) is very likely responsible for the Crocus City Hall attack. The Kremlin nevertheless and without evidence quickly attempted to tie Ukrainian actors to the Crocus City Hall attack but has yet to formally accuse Ukraine of involvement in the attack. Russian ultranationalists responded to the attack by reiterating typically xenophobic calls for anti-migrant policies, reflecting the growing tension in Russian society over the mistreatment of migrants and the impacts migrant disenfranchisement could have on expanding a viable recruitment base in Russia for Salafi-Jihadi groups.

    I figure they're not even interested in dealing with the reality of it when they can just use such attacks to drum up more anti-US and anti-Ukraine sentiment at home to support their war of aggression. Better in their view to turn that anger toward their enemy and war of choice than to divert limited military resources to deal with ISIS-K.

    The number one national security risk for Russia and Russians is V. Putin.

    "A week ago, President Vladimir Putin swaggered triumphantly onstage at a post-election event surrounded by young people in T-shirts reading “Putin — Russia — Victory,” and he confidently shrugged off Western criticism of the vote as neither free nor fair.

    This weekend, a very different Vladimir Putin addressed a nation shocked by a massacre at a rock concert on Moscow’s outskirts. His image as a tough leader was badly dented by gunmen who mowed down dozens of victims, unchecked by police or security.

    Appearing on TV on Saturday, hours after the attack that killed 137 people and wounded over 100, he sought to make it serve his political goals by alleging a link between the gunmen and Ukraine, saying the assailants planned to flee there. He made no mention of the Islamic State group, which claimed responsibility, or of Kyiv's denial of involvement."

    With what?.....90% of the Mafiosi "military" directly/indirectly involved in Ukraine.

    45% of that 90% is already destroyed....the other 45% is AWOL, injured, MIA....the remaining 10% is to suppress insurrection back home.

    They can mobilize more, and maybe the Moscow attack was false flag to justify massive mobilization.

    Considering how they're exploiting it, it might as well have been a false flag.

    One of the attackers had his ear cut off and then they made him eat it, and another was carted around unconscious. They are probably not going to survive the interrogations, and then Russians can invent any story about the attack that suites the narrative. They are ISIS, but not Arabs, but Tajikistan citizens. Tajikistan is a muslim country, but not Arab.
