Drafe Hoblin:
Gotta wait for Putin to make a statement.  It should happen momentarily.  It's definitely a personal blow, since he just got elected for a 6th-term.

SVPete:
Has Biden blamed Trump and MAGA-Republicans yet?

Slightly less unseriously, apparently the US government did warn the Russians of the general threat. What the Russians did with the warning, :shrug: . Were Trump President and gave the Russians warning, DU-grade Dems would claim that proved Trump-Russia Collusion. But Biden being President, the Dems, quite reasonably, are, "Well of course Biden warned them."

Drafe Hoblin:
That so-called 'warning' needs to be investigated.

It's highly highly highly doubtful that State Department was 'warning' the Russian Government.  They were issuing a standard warning to Americans about traveling, gathering in groups, etc., which they issue several times a year. 

The UK-Government is claiming the same thing.  That is too thin to be credible, as well.

This isn't going to end well for the arrestees.  I suspect it's already ending for some of them... bloody, on camera, on their knees.  I wish we could do that to the violent criminal illegals here.

More Countries Warn About Terrorism in Russia After Moscow Plot Thwarted

Published Mar 08, 2024 at 5:57 PM EST


--- Quote ---More countries have joined the United States in warning their citizens in Russia to avoid crowds over an imminent terrorist threat, shortly after Russian officials said they thwarted an attempted attack on a Moscow synagogue.

A security alert issued on Thursday warned that the U.S. Embassy in Moscow was "monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and U.S. citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours."

The British Embassy in Moscow quickly shared the warning, while advising U.K. nationals to avoid "all travel to Russia." By Friday, at least six other nations had joined in warning their citizen about the alleged threat—including Canada, Germany, Sweden, South Korea, Latvia and the Czech Republic.
...
This week's warning prompted several Putin allies in Russia to launch evidence-free conspiracy theories claiming that the U.S. and U.K. were planning to commit terror attacks in Russia and blame the attacks on another entity.

Putin didn't listen, and it ended, poorly.

Airwolf:
Looks like the death toll went over 100 and they are claiming they have made some arrest in the case. I'm not so sure they have any of the people that made the attack but with the Russians who knows what they are up to.
