Timothy Snyder looks at the terrorist attack that has just occurred at Moscow, and notes that on March 7 and 19, the US warned of an impending terrorist attack in Moscow. Putin mocked US intelligence after this warning.

ISIS has taken responsibility for the attack. Russia is so intent on attacking Ukraine that its security apparatus in Moscow has failed.

Snyder predicts Russia will now try to divert blame to Ukraine and the US.

@wdlindsy They have already claimed the terrorists were apprehended while "fleeing towards Ukraine." [(sota voce) Or on the road to Belarus.]

@JamesBazan They'll definitely do all they can to push that meme, I expect.

@wdlindsy ah Snyder, famous for the stridency of his public arguments, which often see him presenting beliefs, and even speculations, as incontrovertible facts.
