Why would Islamic State attack Russia?
Why would Islamic State attack Moscow and how will Russia respond here’s what you need to know a branch of Islamic State has claimed responsibility for the Moscow attack and it wouldn’t be the first time islamist extremists have targeted Russia there have been multiple Terror attacks throughout Putin’s presidency particularly in the early
Years and Russian forces have been fighting militant groups in the mainly Muslim North Caucasus region of Russia for decades but the question of who’s to blame for this attack is disputed the US says it does have intelligence that backs up the is claim but Russia claims otherwise it says the suspects had
Ukrainian connections and were heading to cross the border before they were caught and this gives us a sense of what Russia might do next Ukraine has denied any involvement in the attack and it fears that Moscow may use it as a pretext to escalate its war with Kev and
Discredit it internationally one thing’s for sure after failing to prevent the attack right now the Kremlin looks weak and will seek to find a way to use it to regain Authority

So the CIA or Mossad have been hard at work yet again?
Chemical weapons on Syrian civilians by Russian forces.
They wouldn't.
Islamic state was backed by the west against Assad and Syria.. they still are, clearly..
Russia are correct
This story of Isis attacking Russia is stupid and obviously a distraction. We all know this has Ukraine and western support written all over it
Or maybe the US put a fake Sheikh on Telegram and engaged some patsies to go into Russia, pretending it was for IS, in the hope they provoke a response from Russia. It was Chechens that caught the terrorists, that apparently believed they were doing the work of IS and had received half payment for their bloodshed. Think Nordstrom Pipeline. Russia didn't blow their own pipe up.
America loves a good war, or a bad war, or any war.
Why is it again that NATO have encroached on Russian borders? Why does the US think they have the right to interfere in the politics of other countries? Force regime changes, bump off leaders etc?
By the way, Julian Assange is an Australian that committed no crime in Australia or the country he was in. He embarrassed the US by releasing war crimes they committed. He is a political prisoner.
It wouldn't have anything to do with CIA training this group would it and yet again created a disaster. They are too busy taking down loyal Americans instead od DOING THEIR JOB.
Whatever the main Stream propaganda says, the opposite is true
Turkey fault 🤣🤣
Because usa and eu fund isis.
Stop lying USA and Ukraine Who is attack Russia not Islamic State
To question who's involved in playing into Putin hands. It bears all the hallmarks of Islamic terrorism. Putin is a liar
Bingo!
Putin playing games! Killing his own people as he has done for years, and blaming it on someone else
Because Obama told them to?
hi
I don't believe it's Islamic State because western intelligence can easily write the acceptance of the attack. The fact is the west has lost all creditable in the world stage…
It’s didn’t happened from a Islamic country because he clearly said Ukraine 🇺🇦 is involved in the attack
It could be anyone Russia has made plenty of enemies
ISIS = Israeli secret intelligence service
So 'Islamic State' would rather attack Russia than Israel? Make it make sense!
First, they are non islamic state
Nonsense! Like they blew up their own pipeline 😂
A "Branch" yeah a government funded one!!
Oh dear,Russia support Palestine , Islamist would do an attack, what a coincidence
Of course ISiS will claim and US knows about, USA arm them and use them, ISIS are USA branch in first place
It obvious why they would attack Russia because they want to take the pressure off them by starting world war 3
I don't think it was ISIS. I think that's a CIA cover-up.
Why? GUR/SBU paid them too with CIA and MI6 oversight.
Apparently one of the attackers was in Ukraine recently and served in an Islamist batallion allied to AFU.
I don't "need to know" any of this…
Doesn't matter. Its a false flag op, Russia will leverage it towards them politically regardless.
US, CIA, NATO allies and UKRAINE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TERRORIST ATTACK
This is crap west is pretty responsible for this I think. Assuming that they are from East Asian countries that make no sense
I don't believe thats really happened, i didn't believe that happened in Israel by so call army of Hamaz or whatever its called ether
Putin’s lies won’t help him win his personal war with Ukraine.
Russia said it isn’t an “Islamic” group?
Because Joe ama has given them orders
As if Sky will undertake serious investigative journalism 🙄😂
I doubt it 😮
Funded and Plotted by the West…. 100%
No doubt a CIA operation
Islam believes they're supposed to take everyone else out.
It was America and Israle doing.
We all know who is to blame and who funded it
Isis=israel
NO ONE IS BUYING THIS
So USA has intelligence to back up the ISIS claim? 😂😂😂 sound guilty to me.
Putins jobs
