The key to understanding what has happened in Russia, in terms of the “terror attack” being blamed on ISIS, lies in the fact that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a former Soviet KGB colonel and his regime is based on the remnants of the old Soviet Union, including its military and intelligence establishment.
The reorganization of the old Soviet Union has confused many in the West. Putin is in total control. Nothing happens without his orders or approval.
Thus, the ISIS attack in Russia is the work of the FSB, formerly the KGB.
In our book on
Red Jihad, we note that a 34-page ISIS manual on how to conceal communications from the NSA used former CIA/NSA analyst Edward Snowden as a source. Snowden was an agent for Russia who defected through Chinese Hong Kong and now lives in Russia and became a citizen there. Hence, ISIS is dependent on Russia for its survival as a terrorist entity.
If ISIS attacked Russia, it's because Putin ordered or approved it.
ISIS grew out of the remnants of the old Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq, supported by the Russians. So don’t believe the propaganda about ISIS being an independent enemy of Russia.
AP reports, “The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement posted on affiliated channels on social media, which couldn’t be independently verified. It wasn’t immediately clear what happened to the attackers after the raid, which state investigators were investigating as terrorism.”
Reports of at least 40 people killed and more than 100 injured when five gunmen “dressed in camouflage” opened fire at people at a concert near Moscow strike me as a KGB operation that Putin will use to blame others and make his regime stronger. Ukraine. This has happened before
In his book,
Judgment in Moscow, Vladimir Bukovsky described what happened:
- In September 1999, however, four apartment buildings were blown up in Moscow and in two other cities, killing 300 people. The bombings were blamed on Chechen terrorists. Putin was put in charge of a new enterprise—a second war in Chechnya under circumstances in which he could pose as the defender of the Russian people. The second Chechen war was even more brutal and indiscriminate than the first (1994–96). However as a result of initial success, Putin’s popularity rose and he was elected President of Russia.
- As it happened, however, a fifth bomb was discovered in the basement of an apartment building in the city of Ryazan, and the people who placed it there were captured and found to be not Chechen terrorists, but agents of the FSB. Since then, a mass of overwhelming and incontrovertible evidence has accumulated showing that not only the failed attempt to blow up a building in Ryazan, but also all four of the successful apartment bombings were the work of the FSB. The murder of hundreds of randomly chosen innocent Russian civilians who died in the blasts was the means by which the new “democratic” leadership preserved its hold on power.
Trump has described Putin as a strong leader who defends Russian interests. This is certainly true.
Remember that Russian President Vladimir Putin was deeply involved in “active measures” and espionage activities during the late 1980s when he was a KGB colonel and spy in East Germany. Later, he became head of the FSB, the KGB’s main successor.
Putin, who is divorced and is said to have a mistress, has presented himself as a defender of the Christian faith and Christian values, in contrast to the decline and decadence of the West. He is counting on conservatives to ignore the fact that he was a Soviet KGB officer and ran its successor, the FSB. One of the main specialties of the Soviet/Russian intelligence services is propaganda and disinformation.
I think the latest terrorist incident will benefit Putin. He may blame ISIS or he may blame Ukraine. In any case, it will be used to increase the bombardment of Ukraine, with Biden playing his role, as he pushes Congress to vote for aid for Ukraine, enabling Biden to “look tough.”
Meanwhile, it’s going Moscow’s way in the Middle East, the subject of my new column,
Genocide Joe Seeks Bloodbath in Israel and America.
Amazingly, some Americans are fooled by the rhetoric on both sides. Joe Biden is not standing up to Russia and has not shown any desire to give the people of Ukraine the weapons they need to win.
Deep in his heart, Biden is still committed to the “New World Order” he wrote about in the Wall Street Journal decades ago. His “slow-walking” of weapons to Ukraine is designed to force the government to negotiate with Putin. Reagan-style conservatives have demanded long-range missiles and F-16 war planes for Ukraine.
Even the left-wing actor Sean Penn, after visiting the war zone (without Putin’s approval), said the U.S. (i.e. Joe Biden) must accept “a level of shame” for not helping Ukraine with weapons more quickly.
Like other Western leaders, Biden will claim sympathy for the Russian people in the wake of the terrorist attack carried out by the KGB, without blaming Putin. Then, he will pretend to force Congress to approve more weapons shiments to Ukraine while leaving the regime and its people vulnerable to Moscow's bombs, in a position to survive only by agreeing to Putin's terms.
