Why Russia might have carried out a false flag operation against a nationalistic icon like the Kremlin is self-evident.
The timing of the purported attack, coming just days ahead of the May 9 Victory Day parade commemorating the Soviet Union’s victory over Nazi Germany, has not gone un-noticed — nor was it meant to, analysts said.
The Kremlin said the drone attack had taken place “on the eve of Victory Day, the May 9th Parade, at which the presence of foreign guests is also planned.”
It added that “the Russian side reserves the right to take retaliatory measures where and when it sees fit” also suggesting the attack could be used to justify an escalation of its aggression against Ukraine.
Those “retaliatory measures” were hinted at by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, who called for the “elimination” of Ukraine’s government and cited Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy by name.
So what if he did? It’s still not our problem.
We’ve got an invasion going on right now along the southern border. Let’s spend our billions there.
That drone attack was staged by Putin, just like I said in another thread this morning.
No, I don’t think they’d run a false flag against the Kremlin. It makes Putin and his military look foolish and I think that was the point of hitting the top of the roof like they did. That way lots of video around Moscow would capture the event.
I’m also not thinking Ukraine did this either. It smells more like domestic opposition to Putin.
This are same people that claimed Russia blew up its own pipelines and then claimed five people rented yacht, blew it up and returned the yacht with their fake passwords still on board.
Why, too, did videos of the “attack” only appear after the incident....
Because the appearance of videos of the attack before the incident might have aroused suspicion.
What’s your evidence to backup this claim?
It was an “assassination attempt” as much as J6 was an “insurrection”.
I don’t know, nor do I care!
If there is any possibility for this democrat administratiion to manufacture another “USS MAINE” incident to turn attention away from “some darn thing”, they will.
Both sides are lying their asses off about the war.
However, from a practical perspective I kind of hope it was the Ukrainians responsible.
We destroyed the Nord Stream pipelines, which is a far more serious provocation than a few drones and the Russians have not responded in kind as far as we know.
Not to sure Putin will respond on this latest drone attack if it came from the Ukraine or other sources.
However, if this was a false flag attack, then Putin is planning on using the drones as a pretext for some pretty serious “reprisals”. This conflict needs to be ended before it escalates out of control. As far as "false flags" I'm far more concerned about the US or NATO trying a nuclear false flag event . I know that sounds crazy, but the Biden Administration is crazy.
Kinda like the Biden regime’s false flag attempt to smear Russia with blowing up its own gas pipeline? Or the false flag chemical warfare claims to smear Russian ally Syria?
Does it matter? Both sides are playing this “war” as Kabuki theater with histrionics and drama and ignoring Sun Tzu altogether.
You don’t need “false flags” on either side - you crush the enemy forces and destroy their ability to wage war and neither side is doing that!! They’re both angling for political alliances more than they are to achieve their military goals.
Very bizarre.
Without taking sides in th his stupid war, why the noise about a Ukie drone attack on the Kremlin? Russia invades Ukraine. It sends a strike force to capture Kiev which is repulsed and then Russia complains when the Ukies send a drone strike at Moscow. Kind of like the Japs bitching about the Dooloittle raid.
With so many liars on both sides, who knows?
Sure Russia has every reason to stage destructive explosions right next to secure buildings. The perception of them by the rest of the world is way more important than any damage that might be done by such an explosion. Same as the Nordstrom’s pipeline. Obviously they got such benefit of perception that was far more valuable than a stupid oil pipeline that cost billions to construct and repair. Heck they probably blew up their own bridge because the perception of the world was way more important than them being able to drive to and from Crimea. That means they probably sunk a few of their own ships and fired rockets at their own tanks. You just can’t underestimate the value of the world’s perception.
Oh, absolutely. Just like they bombed their own apartment buildings, shelled their own troops in Ukraine deliberately, blew up Nordstream, sunk their own shit, assassinated Dugan’s daughter with a bomb, assassinated that Wagner blogger with a bomb etc. Nothing is ever the fault of Ukraine. Just ask them. And the CIA doesn’t a system in anyway.
Sure is a whole lot of mind readers and Jean Dixon type people here.
Yes. End of story. But again DON’T UNDERESTIMATE RUSSIA!
This will make a good excuse for Putin to send in his heavy bombers for Dresden style obliteration of Kyev.
From what I saw, I doubt the exploding drone could have even put a hole in the roof......
