Description

- US use of terrorism to advance foreign policy objectives is based on decades of evidence and includes support for militants in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union, Chechen separatists inside Russia in the 1990s and 2000s, and Al Qaeda and ISIS in Syria from against Syrian, Iranian, and Russian forces; - More recently, US foreign policymakers have laid out plans to use listed terrorist organizations as proxies to carry out attacks in targeted nations like Iran and Pakistan; - Ukraine has already carried out an extensive terror campaign aimed at Russian civilians deep within Russian territory including in Belgorod, St. Petersburg, and Moscow; - US media admits collaboration between US intelligence and Ukrainian intelligence from 2014 onward while also admitting Ukraine has carried out a number of attacks on civilians inside Russia including Darya Dugina and Vladen Tatarsky; - US media also admits that despite the US claiming to have warned Russia of an impending terrorist attack, information was withheld due to the “adversarial relationship” between the US and Russia; - Leading up to the deadly Moscow attack, US foreign policymakers had repeatedly stated the need to make ordinary Russians “feel the pinch” of the conflict; References: NYT - Why Russia’s Vast Security Services Fell Short on Deadly Attack (March 28, 2024): https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/28/world/europe/russia-concert-attack-security-failures.html RAND Corporation - Extending Russia (2019): https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_reports/RR3063.html The New Yorker - The Redirection, by Seymour Hersh (2007): https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/03/05/the-redirection NYT - C.I.A.

When America claims to be one nation under God, nothing could be further from the truth.

The U.S. is the prime suspect because of the cookie crumbles all over the place.

1. The U.S. supported the Shah of Iran for its large oil reserves; 2. The U.S. supported Saddam Hussein and encouraged Iraq to attack Iran; 3. The U.S. supported and trained Al-Qaeda to fight Soviet troops in Afghanistan; 4. The U.S. supported and trained rebels to fight government forces in Syria... In short, the U.S. is the mother of all terrorists and they don't care about fallouts, however destructive, as long as they fit American purposes. Everybody knows the U.S. uses Ukrainians as cannon fodder in its war against archenemy Russia. The terror attack in Moscow is but a personal assault on Vladimir Putin right after his election victory.

UK has not been innocent of these same methods. Their involvement is indisputable.

Professor Mohammad Marandi pointed out how curious it is that all the attacks by al Qaeda, ISIS and it's affiliates/offshoots just happen to be in countries the US doesn't like and Israel is the only country ISIS apologized to for attacking them? Doesn't that beg some questions about 9/11 as well?

Saying US never funds terrorism is like saying NATO is a defensive alliance.
