There are a lot of theories floating around about various intelligence agencies’ involvement in the Crocus terrorist attack. A shrinking minority believe the U.S. government’s explanation, because it doesn’t comport with the known facts very well and it was announced too shortly after the incident. From Andrew Korybko at korybko.substack.com:
This accounts for why the US only passed along vague information to Russia since it assumed that the GUR wouldn’t go through with the Crocus plot after ordering them to call it off, but Washington still wanted to discredit its rival’s government and security services, ergo its embassy’s provocative warning at the time.
The New York Times (NYT) cited unnamed sources on Thursday to report that “The adversarial relationship between Washington and Moscow prevented U.S. officials from sharing any information about the (Crocus terrorist attack) plot beyond what was necessary, out of fear Russian authorities might learn their intelligence sources or methods.” This vindicates President Putin, who the West hitherto claimed had downplayed terrorist threats in the run-up to one of the worst attacks in Russian history.
Without actionable intelligence and informed only of the US’ vague warning that large gatherings like concerts could soon be targeted, his security services were unable to stop the plotters, thus meaning that Washington is partially responsible for what happened by withholding specific information about it. Just as scandalously, this bombshell also prompted speculation about the exact sources and methods that America employed to first catch wind of this attack.
While it’s possible that the US learned about this from spying on the radical Telegram channel whose curators reportedly recruited the culprits, such as if the CIA had a mole inside that preacher’s team, the case can compellingly be made that this might have actually been brought to its attention by spying on Kiev. Last spring’s Pentagon leaks confirmed that the US has been spying on Zelensky, which Ukrainian officials told CNN was “unsurprising” but still left them “deeply frustrated”.
Read that the patsies were high as kites on something and the warning from FUSA is why the false flag was aborted on March 7, increased security at the venue.
In wartime there ain’t no foolin’ around and the Germans found out at Stalingrad that playtime was over.
Before that they were still making peacetime goods, cities lit up with no blackout, no logistical support for important items such as cold weather gear for the troops who got caught in the coldest Russian winter in 100 years, they had to take in clothing donations from the public at first.
When you are at WAR, act like it and be on alert for anything.
