Did you see her statement sitting on the garden bench? I could have cried for her, she looks devastated. William must be going through hell, his father and wife fighting cancer at the same time.

As somebody else posted - cancer is the ultimate leveller - wealth and rank may mean you get better treatment, but it doesn't guarantee you anything in terms of the outcome ... thought her broadcast was both dignified and moving - particularly in light of the more lurid conspiracy claims ricocheting around social media that must have been particularly tough for her and the family, given the truth behind everything... respect girl - fair play to you <ok>
 
Listening to some of the news this morning, and more so Russia's reaction, it feels like they will use the Moscow terrorrist attack as an excuse to commit some sort of atrocity on Ukraine. Hope I'm wrong.

Yep, Ukraine, a traditional hub of activity for the Islamic State of Iraq.

Couldn't possibly be that Russia has morphed into an alt right fascist cult of personality that targets all minorities.

I've also read reports that Russians are now called by Ukrainian based hackers who have convinced old ladies to throw molotovs at voting booths <laugh>

It's a bizarre response ... logistically it would be virtually impossible to get through the Russian special forces / patrols all along the front line ... and then Ukraine is hardly the most friendly Jihadist destination in the world now, is it?

Putin can say whatever he wants, the Russian loyalists he commands are serfs.

Its in their DNA, like, genuinely.

Generations upon generations of indentured servitude which made Victorian Britain look like a Liberal paradise.

ISIS or Russia, hm, difficult choice.

It would like you say be virtually impossible for this to be allowed .
There's plenty of convenient attacks that have happened in Russia that makes it legitimate excuse for Russia to further escalate

I thought exactly this too. Bit worrying that this could be used to justify a further escalation.

The idea that these attackers were heading to Ukraine afterwards is just beyond mental. Hardly like that's a border you can just go and cross with ease at this point in time is it

No doubt the captured terrorists will now be shown on TV admitting how they were cooperating with the Ukrainians who were helping them…

Anyone who is a fair man will know that once Islamic state take credit for anything then it is by default a scumbag act in the eyes of the everyday Muslim

and in the month of Ramadan too with the message this month preaches us, just further proves to us that these low lives do not represent the faith of Islam in any way shape or form, they are a stain on the faith by association

Anyone who is a fair man knows that these animals don’t represent what Islam stands for and they’re out to cause division.

Inshallah the Russians will give them the punishment they deserve for slaughtering innocent men, women and children.

Hope Ramadan is going well for you bro.

I think the way Putin will play it will be to try to galvanise public support by saying "look we're being attacked from all sides".

I doubt he'll try and link IS to Ukraine, but he'll use it to say back me bcos I need to protect you from everyone who's out to get us (his main purpose of course will be to use that to continue his invasion of Ukraine).

Yeah that last bit is what I think. He’s already played the they were heading to Ukraine line.

I expect to see another mobilisation in a week or so to protect the Motherland.

I've not watched the news since early morning so not up to date with things. My thoughts are it would be ridiculous to link IS to Ukraine. For one thing, U.S. intelligence would blow it right out of the water bcos they warned him well in advance.

What Putin could get away with though is saying Ukraine are fascists and IS are fascist terrorists. Mother Russia is under threat from fascists, we must stay strong blah blah bollox.
