At the end of World War II, a lot of Ukrainian Nazis moved to Canada and the US. In fact the CIA actively recruited them. In the US and Canada they became Good Americans and Good Canadians – which of course calls into question what "good" means.. I guess the Statue of Liberty needs a revised inscription: . “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled mass murderers yearning to avoid the rope, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
Have been reading Hannah Arendts views on totalitarianism. How it works and its implementation. The writings are related to the regime in Germany in late 1930s and the Stalin regime in Russia. It gives me some concerns that our agencies within our government ie the deep state are applying that approach. For example 17 intelligence agencies. Totalitarian systems use massive redundancy and it’s intentional so you don’t know who is really in charge and it’s always shifting. But under the Arendt view there is the one totalitarian leader the two well known figures from history. Everyone else is expendable and is expended. So it’s a continuous movement
Whomever actually did this,did so to inflame the war in Ukraine and I assume that is what we'll see. On thing for certain,Moscow's responce will be extreme.
Perhaps they assumed some kind of rash and impetuous retaliation – which won't happen. But after this – and after the collapse of the Ukraine – there will be no place Ukraine safe for people with Nazi affiliations.
"Rather than consolidate power among a narrow group of family and clan, the government of President Rahmon would be wise to replace Russian support with greater domestic legitimacy....
....This requires a clear commitment by the government of Tajikistan. And the international community can help. In particular, the United States and the European Union should consider extending increased economic partnership and investment opportunities to support the reform process and alleviate the pain caused by the consequences of Russia’s war in Ukraine. Yet, any new assistance package and investment initiative should be tied to progress on political and economic reforms and mechanisms that ensure accountability and transparency in the process.
There are already several hints pointing to the "usual suspects" (i.e. Ukrainians and their enablers: Americans, British and the rest of NATO). I talk about them in the article I wrote soon after the terrorist attack: https://open.substack.com/pub/geopolitiq/p/terrorist-attack-in-moscow
"Just an hour or two after the attack, the State Department assured the world that the Ukraine had nothing to do with the attack. In conversation with the Judge Napolitano and Ray McGovern, Larry Johnson points out that the Americans couldn't possibly have information to make that assessment".
Unless they know who did carry out the attack. Which would be the case if they themselves did it. As with the Nord Stream sabotage, the obvious culprits may be the actual ones.
The real perps can remain in the shadows while the front men do the dirty work. It’d hate to be in the shoes of the guy they caught, although he may not even know the ultimate boss of the operation.
They won't treat them with kid gloves; but I don't think there will be any torture or really rough stuff. The Russians are committed to due process of law, and they will want a proper trial without any appearance of brutality. Mr Putin is clever enough to understand that there is much more to be gained from being seen as law-abiidng and moral.
If the Ukie regime moves to Florida will they destroy USA?

Mind boggling
I'm hoping that NATO has signed its own death sentence.
One can hope but unlikely. The Nazi Atlantic Terror Organization.
Whomever actually did this,did so to inflame the war in Ukraine and I assume that is what we'll see. On thing for certain,Moscow's responce will be extreme.
While I appreciate that it was (probably) a typo, I love "warth"! Five letters that combined "wrath" with "war"...
Perhaps they assumed some kind of rash and impetuous retaliation – which won't happen. But after this – and after the collapse of the Ukraine – there will be no place Ukraine safe for people with Nazi affiliations.
Per Intel Slava Z, one captured terrorist is from Tajikistan, plus a Tajikistan passport was found in the abandoned suspect getaway car.
Interesting info on Tajikistan as it relates to Ukraine & US:

Watch out! Here comes democracy…

An excellent article. I hope everyone reads it
Thank you.
It's a bit "old" now, but I added a couple of updates the day after and later on posted a few additional notes here on substack.

Exactly
The real perps can remain in the shadows while the front men do the dirty work. It’d hate to be in the shoes of the guy they caught, although he may not even know the ultimate boss of the operation.
They've caught the perps & at least 7 accomplices. Intel Slava Z has videos of them being arrested & questioned.
They are paid terrorists. Half a million rubles according to 1.
Russia is looking for their cell phones. Just 1 phone could lead them to their handler.
They won't treat them with kid gloves; but I don't think there will be any torture or really rough stuff. The Russians are committed to due process of law, and they will want a proper trial without any appearance of brutality. Mr Putin is clever enough to understand that there is much more to be gained from being seen as law-abiidng and moral.
Well, I got that sensationally wrong, didn't I?
🙂
Absolutely.
