US backed itself into corner by blaming IS for Crocus City Hall terror attack

Via TASS

“It took them only a few hours to get to a microphone, turn on the lights, summon the press and draw a conclusion about who is to blame for this horribly bloody terrorist attack,” Maria Zakharova pointed out

MOSCOW, March 27. /TASS/. The US has backed itself into a corner by jumping the gun to lay blame on the Islamic State terrorist group (IS, outlawed in Russia) for the terrorist attack on Crocus City Hall even as the incident was still in progress, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

“The very fact that within the first 24 hours [after the attack], even before the fire was put out, the Americans started screaming that it wasn’t Ukraine, I think, is a piece of incriminating evidence. I can’t classify it otherwise; it is evidence in and of itself,” the diplomat said on air during a Sputnik radio broadcast.

“The second fact to note concerns the clamor by the US that this assuredly was the work of ISIS (former name of IS – TASS),” the spokeswoman pointed out. “Of course, the speed with which they were able to [come to such forthright conclusions] is astonishing. It took them only a few hours to get to a microphone, turn on the lights, summon the press and draw a conclusion about who is to blame for this horribly bloody terrorist attack,” Zakharova said.

“I think they’ve boxed themselves into a corner, because as soon as they started screaming that it was ISIS, all those people who work in international relations, who are political scientists and experts, recalled and reminded everyone else what ISIS really is,” the diplomat said. “You are behind all those ISIS-type structures, you – the United States, Great Britain – yourselves brought them into being,” she concluded.

Terrorist attack on Crocus City Hall

On the evening of March 22, a terrorist attack targeted the Crocus City Hall music venue in Krasnogorsk, Moscow Region, just over the Moscow city limits. The current death toll is 139, and 182 people were injured. Eleven individuals suspected of being involved in the terrorist attack have been apprehended, including four gunmen, who were detained in the Bryansk Region, southwest of Moscow, as they attempted to seek refuge by crossing the nearby Ukrainian border. President Vladimir Putin said in a televised address that, according to preliminary information, the Ukrainian side had prepared “a window” in the border especially for the terrorists to cross undetected. He promised to identify and punish all those who were behind the attack on Crocus City Hall.

It is funny how they always ignore the abomination occupying Palestine. The ones who had the most to gain and made the biggest threat. “Hamas is ISIS!” Benjamin Netanyahu repeatedly about Oct 7 2023

The stupidity of US government elected , appointed and hired is unbelievable !
Their assumptions are always blatantly idiotic ! Anything the US GOVERNMENT announces your best bet is not to believe anything they say NOTHING !
The pathetic parasites in government are not there to honor their oath at all !
The majority are self serving professional liars and the minority are merely hanger on willing to bend any direction . Only spineless assholes are capable of quietly maintaining staying power . This as they enrich themselves at the public trough like pigs in their swill

“Two centuries ago, a somewhat obscure Scotsman named Tytler made this profound observation: ‘A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship, then a monarchy.’”

Citizens must have the self discipline to resist the temptation knowing that voting themselves benefits from taxpayers is functionally stealing. We used to have that and provided reasonable benefits out of a sense of civil responsibility and charity. Thanks to the left, that ethical view has been steadily eroded by telling the masses that they deserve and are entitled to ever increasing largesse, and that the wealthy and middle class are evil for withholding it.

Our Founders were aware of the danger of democracy, and they also knew that it was a pipe dream to imagine that people in general would somehow become different than they have always been.

That’s why they designed a government that had so little power that almost no one would want to serve. In the beginning, it was generally a financial sacrifice to be a Congressman or the President.

It could still be profitable to be a mayor of a big city, or especially a Governor

We got a better class of people in Washington when the federal government didn’t have huge amounts of money to spread around, and didn’t have enough power to make it worthwhile to try to bribe them.
Becoming a Postmaster or a Port Inspector were about the only two jobs that offered opportunities for graft.

Hoping that people in general will become more moral is a fantasy. The Founders knew it wouldn’t happen, and they were right.

There is not even a level of representation that rises to your scenario. They are not buying anyone’s vote, they are implementing control measures.

There are more than a few ways to “buy” votes, but, you are correct, Congress is passing, and Biden is signing lots of unconstitutional “laws” intended to control the economy and individual Citizens.

The means to control elections are still being perfected, although, if it’s “legal” to have Two Parties that are given joint control of the electoral process, it’s probably “legal” to allow only one candidate on the ballot.

What’s the difference between Maria Zakharova and that creepy black raggaday Ann looking thing that the Biden regime uses as its press Secretary?
One uses facts and logic the other one works for Biden.

Biden has his set of “facts” and Putin has his.

You can’t expect anyone to logically explain Biden’s policies and actions. That would be impossible, especially when the “explainer” doesn’t really know the facts.

Islamist terrorists are not Muslims, they are socialists of the nastiest variety.

Perhaps they will attack Mecca on some Holy Day. Why not? Various Muslim sects have been warring with each other almost since the beginning.
