Man I sure do love being an American having an opinion about another country I know nothing about. But if any of you fucking faggots from another country tries to weigh in about American politics I'm gonna lose my shit.

What's the black cock thing about, then? It's the only thing that's entirely unique to the United States of America, and not one has ever been able to explain it like a mature adult.

Pages and pages of spergout. Can you guys move to Mass Debates or something?

In relation to the actual topic, the ISIS angle makes no sense but at the same time the Russians capturing the entire cell within a little less than 24 hours also feels suspicious. No one stands to gain from doing this shit (Ukraine loses all support overnight if they did this, Putin already has all of state power consolidated he doesn’t need to fake shit to escalate, ISIS has been irrelevant for years now.)

Is it possible that this could’ve been some domestic Russian paramilitary types? I know they’ve always had some problems with people like that.

So far the explanation we have been given makes the most sense.
If it was an Ukie OP. Hiring sand niggers dumb enough to do it but not dumb enough to expose you. Have the means to contact them but without leaving a trail to yourself. And the gain from this is dead Russian civilians which in turn has increased the amount of compassion for Russia. If you fuck it up it means less people like you.
If this was a Russian OP it's even dumber. Make a false flag but never have them actually name Ukraine. After a day of advanced interrogation techniques only come up with the fact that they wanted to escape via Ukraine. If you succeed only thing you gain is pitty. If you fuck it up everyone without a doubt knows you are evil and stupid.
If it's a 3rd party without state support. Shot a bunch of Russian civilians, pay sand niggers to do it. If they succeed have no actual means of using it to further your agenda unless your agenda is dead Russians. If they fuck up and the world figures out you did then everyone will hate your guts since you are an easy target.

The biggest tell in my opinion is everyone's reactions. Russia is acting confused. US is acting conciliatory. Ukrainains are quiet. Reminds me of the JFK assassination. Where USSR was trying their best to show that they had no relation using back channels and condemning it openly. If this was US, Ukie or someone else they would act differently.

Does isis even exist anymore? And I don’t mean the little splinter groups

They’re like a franchise kinda. Right now the Taliban is fighting one of these branches of Isis. The Taliban are nice in comparison.

When it comes to twitter I'd take a screenshot over a link anymore. Those links are invalid for me on their site (probably because no account).

Terrorists aren’t protected by the Geneva convention.

Their leader was killed by the Syrian government recently. He was living in Syrian government territory and they didn't even know who he was until the group announced the death later.

It still a thing, although how big of a thing it is outside of Nigeria, Afghanistan and rural Northern Iraq is debatable.

How are you accounting for the fact that the US military were the ones to essentially collapse the main components of the ISIS global media propaganda network with operation Glowing Symphony, causing huge loss in recruitment, substantial monetary loss , & shaking the supporters confidence in their organization.. How would that not have been the most counterintuitive way for America to have conducted themselves if they were the spearheads for ISIS in the first place?

Nigger, that happened because Trump became President.

That is vital, unaligned non-state actors are not. At all. That's why we gladly waterboarded those AQ guys for info, and in the end? I bet it stopped a lot of innocent deaths.

The problem is, who wants to say you stopped something bad from happening by using extreme means? Nothing makes the news, at all, nobody cares, unless it happens. Like they say, a terrorist org can fail 999 times and succeed once and they got the goal.

Anti-terrorism has to be 100% or they fail.

ETA to add 'non-state aligned' In almost everywhere to this day, an 'illegal combatant' unless you're a europussy nation is subject to torture without any legal problems.

An unlawful combatant, illegal combatant or unprivileged combatant/belligerent is, according to United States law, a person who directly engages in armed conflict in violation of the laws of war and therefore is claimed to not be protected by the Geneva Conventions.Dec 2, 2022

You will by Russia, China, USA and so on be subjected to abject torture and death.

Rightfully so illegal stateless terrorists, if found guilty attacking civilians deserve everything. All of it.

It’s not isis at its prime. Don’t forget the Phillipines.

Isis is one of those groups that’s objectively an enemy to everyone that isn’t them. I hope the Russians catch more of them alive.

Bullshit, we carried their asses forever militarily from 1945-2024 to avoid Russian invasion and they hate us anyway. I want us to shit on them for their disregard. They owe us, eurososocialism is only possible because the US protected their ass from USSR socialism, and what did that really get us?

 

[IAmNotAlpharius]

Intel agencies are so busy worrying about white supremacy or Ukraine war that we're basically getting caught with our proverbial pants down.

The assassinations have gotten sloppy because the glowies are full of diversity hires now.

We also literally rebuilt their entire economy.

Handle your own shit then like you used to until Germany's pimp hand got too stronk

You won't so what are we supposed to do just let you toss rusting hulks of countries out on your yard, lowering global property values including ours

They owe us for the Masrsall plan and basically saying if western germany was invaded, we'd sacrifice ourselves in nuclear all out war and all die in retaliation.

You think they cared much? They never seemed to really.

South Koreans bitch and moan too, but they actually have been damn nice lately lol.

ETA and the other big one Taiwan. They need to build up their subs fleets and pay for their defense, but the USAs subs would sink any China assault in hours. If there's one thing that Ukraine proves, even a lousy Russian military (they've always had crap hardware) just can't invade and take anything.

 

[Otterly]

Semi-secretly, it supplies dying kids to pedophiles ("so that kids don't miss out on a precious experience"). They gave interviews about it to liberal rags. They employ Kristina (poon name "Kris") Pokr

That is very bizarre. Do you think it’s linked?

No one stands to gain from doing this shi

Someone does. Either from the attack itself or the aftermath of it. See what the various governments decide is the message they push afterwards and that should give some pointers.

Its really the worst part about current day politics, people are so bloodthirsty. All they see are dirty Putlers getting gunned down so they cheer it on, Reddit is going to have a field day.

This is horrific no matter what side you are on.

It is horrific. always the common people getting slaughtered, in Russia, in Palestine, in Israel, in the uk. Everywhere. Never those in power making the problems, only ever the plebs. One might ponder how many attacks that threaten real power get stopped, and why power might not even bother stopping attacks that hurt the little people. After all, such things are levers to use to gain more power.
It’s revolting.

Are you seriously claiming that there hasn't been a massive outrage in the western society every time US started another one of their conquests?

Only when Republicans are in charge.

When Obama and Clinton did it nobody cared.

Thomas Jefferson, founder of the Democrat Party, was intensely obsessed with African penises. In fact Jefferson was so enamored with negroid genitals that he developed a special table that allowed him to milk a slave like a cow!

All I can say, I can carry in these kind of places and at least fire back, and there needs to be more of that. Fuck you anti-gun places, they will shoot you there too.

I only don't carry in places with metal detectors and security like stadiums and theme parks, which is a viable situation.

It's more like a franchise nowadays, I guess. Various extremist groups band together under the ISIS brand even if there's no central leadership for the group anymore. Probably best given how unification has turned out historically.

Every time Muslims have achieved that unification under a Caliph, it has collapsed into civil war in some spectacularly retarded way.

Yes and they have been assblasted at Putin for backing Assad in Syria and playing BFF with the Taliban. They have been going after Russian targets, like embassies and planes, for years.
