I wouldn’t be surprised, but the evidence presented here is nonexistent lol. So far, what’s more apparent is that the US has the most involvement if anything considering they “had intelligence” on an attack and even warned Americans in Russia to avoid crowded places. I’m surprised this wasn’t mentioned in the article.
One of the Ukrainian ministers supposedly made a thinly veiled boast about “celebrating” with their “Russian brothers more” following the attack - but I’m assuming it’s fake news because that’s a pretty damning statement but the Russians never mentioned this either.
they say they have financial links with transactions. if you're going to say they are lying, that's fine but most nations don't just data dump documents during an ongoing investigation. Just say Russia is lying. But their claim is that they have evidence.
I'm not saying they're lying. Just that they haven't provided any evidence to us, while the circumstances so far has leaned towards American involvement. I believe that one or more of the attackers said they did it for money, and that it was paid to them via card, so those two things are the only public record we have so far of a non-religious entity involved. Obviously they're not going to show anything during an investigation, but I'll reserve my judgement until something more concrete is shown. Someone here made a compelling case of Ukraine going rogue and the US "warning" ahead of time because their plans are in conflict with each other.
