LOL, if the USA was going to bother attacking Moscow you'd already be dead, shit for brains.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Hm, the US has indeed used tactics like this in the past. It's not inconceivable that they could have a possible hand in this. I doubt it, and it doesn't matter. Putin is still going to use it for his propaganda.
Cringe brainrot vomit announcements by Russia again.
When your target audience is dispirited peasants with poor education and debilitating alcohol issues that's a reasonable message.
He got away with having the FSB false flag bomb apartments to blame Chechnya, despite FSB agents being arrested by local police literally planting bombs in an apartment.
That was orchestrated murder and then a lie.
This is merely a lie.
There has been talk about there being FSB agents all dressed in blue shirts and jeans in the concert crowd and the abysmal security response in the first hours. So it is possible that this is more than a lie.
War is peace, Freedom is slavery, Ignorance is strength.
Russian government doctrine 101.
ISIS must be so mad right now.
Lmao. Putin, your ass would be spread across three different oblasts if we had organized that whole thing, and you know it.
We have to go back to the room now, Grandpa. We will talk tomorrow again about Ukraine, okay?
So whatcha gonna do about it? Whine even harder and continue to attack Ukraine?
(I know it’s not true, just seriously asking what’s the point of even trying to say that?)
The point is to sell that to the Russian people to build support for continuing the war.
Which means there will a big round of mobilization. Let's hope that the ones that didn't leave the last time around do this time.
Right so, FSB instigated and facilitated IS to attack theater in Moscow in a Hail Mary to drum up support for Ukraine War escalation. Gotcha...well it worked in 1999 so why not lol
Of course they do
The FSB says whatever Putin wants them to say,
Did he just Reichstag an actual attack?
Nah, that was years ago when they shot at the parliament building with tanks. This is just a run on the mill false flag.
"All of the parties enemies are responsible for the thing they warned us about"
lol feck off
They could have said it was the aliens as well.
They can say whatever the fuck they want and it even would be funny af. But most of the people there and a significant chunk of voting people here in the west are going to believe it.
Lol of course they'd say that.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The director of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), Alexander Bortnikov, said on Tuesday that the US, UK and Ukraine were behind the Moscow concert hall attack that killed at least 139 people on Friday - despite repeated claims of responsibility by Islamic State.
Russian officials persisted in saying Ukraine and the West had a role in last week's deadly Moscow concert hall attack despite vehement denials of involvement by Kyiv and a claim of responsibility by an affiliate of the Islamic State group.
Without offering any evidence, Alexander Bortnikov, head of the Federal Security Service, or FSB, followed similar allegations by President Vladimir Putin, linked the attack to Ukraine even as he acknowledged that the suspects arrested were “radical Islamists.”
But despite the signs pointing to IS, Putin insisted on alleged Ukrainian involvement — something that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejected, accusing the Kremlin leader of trying to drum up fervor as his forces fight in Ukraine.
He repeated Putin's claim that the four gunmen were trying to escape to Ukraine when they were arrested, casting it as a proof of alleged involvement by Kyiv.
Russia is still reeling from the attack Friday in which gunmen killed 139 people in the Crocus City Hall, a concert venue on the outskirts of Moscow.
