Western values on display once again. Reminder, that Vicky the witch promised for asymmetrical warfare and “nasty surprises. These are the surprises.
This is a ridiculous accusation. The West had warned Russia and Russia chose to brush off the warning. ISIS has claimed responsibility. Face it, Putin is just trying to spread conspiracy theories to cover up his failure as a leader.
So why would ISIS attack Russia? What is their motive? It's easy to "claim responsibility." It's an entirely different story to use a great deal of resources to actually plan and carry out a terrorist attack of this scale. And for what reason? To provoke another world powe?? I call bullshit.
They have been fighting each other as part of the ongoing Syrian civil war for about the past decade. I'd say that's motive enough.
