US had warned Russia ISIS was determined to attack

The US warned Moscow that ISIS militants were determined to target Russia in the days before assailants stormed the Crocus City Hall in an attack that killed scores of people, but President Vladimir Putin rejected the advice as “provocative.”

Gunmen stormed the concert hall near Moscow on Friday, opening fire and throwing an incendiary device in the worst terrorist attack on the Russian capital in decades.

Isis has claimed responsibility for the attack.

Not only had Russian intelligence services failed to prevent the attack, they said, but Putin had failed to heed warnings from the United States that extremists were plotting to target Moscow.

Earlier this month, the US embassy in Russia had said it was “monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow,” including concerts, and it warned US citizens to avoid such places.

US National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said the US government had “shared this information with Russian authorities in accordance with its longstanding ‘duty to warn’ policy.”

But in a speech Tuesday, Putin had blasted the American warnings as “provocative,” saying “these actions resemble outright blackmail and the intention to intimidate and destabilize our society.”

For the Putin lovers on this forum, those who like him because he's a good conservative tough with the woke and LBGTQs, look at what human life is worth to this guy.

And because Russia is a dictatorship, there will be no political repercussions for this tyrant, who has been spilling the blood of his people - and others - for 25 years.

Thoughts ?

 

There are no Putin lovers on this forum. It's the left who adored Castro and Chavez, not the right. You need to remember that.

 

I still can not understand how the GOP has become so enamored of Putin and Russia. That is until you see the connection the Orange one has to the Kremlin. Just more proof of the devotion to Trump has reached psychotic levels.

 

Trump is a Putin lover.

And you love Trump.

 

I think that is really the only reason they are so pro-Putin. Follow the leader. They say nothing when Putin targets civilians, including murder, rape and torture but when Russians are targeted, they pour out their support.

Its interesting that ISIS-K hates Russia more than US. Maybe getting out of Afghanistan also got US out of their minds, while Russian meddling in Syria continues.

 

Well, points to the CIA/NSA! Either the Russians ignored the warning as it came from the US or Putin let it happen as part of Maskrovia.

 

Why do you guys spew such nonsense when you don’t even believe it yourselves? And who’s enamored with Russia? Give us names.

 

Donald J. Trump and crew!

Could that be any more clearer?

 

Oh we told him the time and location?

 

It's too bad we're not so prescient about terror attacks in our own country.

We know they're coming over the border and our traitorous president won't close the damn border

 

Republicans voted no on closing the border. Should Biden ignore them and assume complete control?

 

No one is falling for that talking point BS.
All he had to do was not reverse all of Trump's border policies on day one

 

Everyone who supports Trump is a Putin lover by proxy.

 

Everyone who supports behind is a Xi lover by proxy. You see how that works?

 

You really should proofread before firing off your posts. Unless of course your intent is to make a funny, in which case, more power to you.

 

Oh wow you caught me making a typo by talk to text. I hope that was a good victory for your day.

 

Difference is - Biden is not a Xi lover. Relations with China are tense.

Compare that with Trump and Putin. Trump loves Putin. Admires him. Will hand him Ukraine on a platter.

If you support Trump, you support Putin.

 

And yet Putin did not attack Ukraine until he smelled the weakness in our White House.

 

Let your inner clown roar....

 

Its so silly to play these games unless you know time and a location, getting a warning as generic as "isis wants to attack you" is absolutely useless.

 

Did I miss all the terror attacks under Joe?

 

So MSNBC found three people who gave their opinions on the minor incursion Biden said wouldn't bother him. Where are the people who say they love Putin? If you want to play this game, I can provide videos, too.

And it's ironic how you played the LGB card on "Putin lovers" all while your side defends Hamas and is giving Iran billions of dollars.

 

Wrong! Republicans passed HR2 which Schumer is ignoring which means the left is trying to override the will of the people and assume complete control.

 

Don't forget Castro, Chavez, Mao and Che Guevara.
