    I had the wrong French manufacturer. Je me dénonce.

    It seems as though the Russian security services is on par with the Russian military.

    There is sooo much propaganda flying on Twitter about the Russia attack. It was the Ukrainians. It was the CIA and the Ukrainians. There are all kinds of accounts that appear American blaming Biden. It's nuts out there. Personally, I think it was Putin doing the same shit he did during the Chechen war. In theory they have caught 14 people including the four shooters, who claim they did it for cash. Lots of accusations, very little clear truth being spoken.

    There are so many conspiracy theories flying that I don't know what to believe or not, and whether we'll ever have any idea of what's true. Whatever the prevailing wisdom becomes, no matter who takes credit for it, there will be people saying it's either a Russian false flag operation, a Ukrainian operation, or a CIA operation, or some combination of all of them, and they'll swear by it until the end of time.

    The one odd thing that's sticking out to me is the video of the interrogations being posted on various social media channels. I get that the Russians want to show they're on top of the situation, but why would they be showing these videos so soon after they caught the guys? Wouldn't OpSec 101 be to keep some of those details under wraps for at least a few days to be reasonably certain you've rounded them all up and not tip off anyone else who might be involved that you're coming for them?
    Something about that part of the aftermath smells weird.

    The Russians are launching a lot of cruise missiles and drones at Kyiv (and some other parts of Ukraine) right now.

    Likely just passing through, not targeting Poland. Still not good, though.

    What's Russia going to do about it? Invade Ukraine?

    Three of the four ISIS terrorists involved in the Moscow attack admitted their guilt in court today.
    Not hard to wrangle a confession when you chop off someone's ear and feed it to them, hook up a car battery to another suspect's balls, and just beat the ever-living shit out of a third. One guy was brought into the courtroom unconscious in a wheelchair.
