The Moscow terror attacks: Are ISIS back? | The News Agents

The bombing of a Moscow concert hall left at least 137 dead and even more wounded.
The regrouped ISIS - now ISIS K- have claimed responsibility even though Putin is insisting on blaming Ukraine.
Why has ISIS come for Putin? What does it tell us about the strategic alignments now dominating the Middle East, and does this act of terror bring the threat of more closer to home?
Also - another by-election looms in the marginal seat of Blackpool South as Tory MP Scott Benton resigns. And Donald Trump wins a golf course. Organised by Donald Trump.

Professor Pete was superb. Learnt more in 5 mins than a lifetime of trying to understand Putins' mind. Great insight.

José Maria Aznar while president of Spain tried to blame Islamic terrorist attacks on ETA in order to evade the fact that it was his war-mongering with Bush and Blair which was the real cause. He lost the election due to the mass disgust which this manipulation caused.

Were they ever gone?

The US would've liked the world to believe that the evil ISIS was dead.... Trump thought that fairytale was going to live on.... Sadly, those evil people have been biding their time to add to the chaos and tragedy 😢

Yes! They wanted a territory, they had one and they lost it.

[@oscarking4891]

@@hus390the concept has never disappeared. On top of that, they still control territory in Afghanistan and disputably in Pakistan. In both a conceptual and physical sense you are incorrect I’m afraid

"Are" ISIS back? Not is?

48% of Tory voters state that would prefer an autocracy in the UK. Plenty of Farage fans adore Putin, often stating that they would love him to be our leader. Now, consider that Reform state in their manifesto that they would begin by calling a state of emergency. We shoud understand exactly what they intend by this. ISIS are brutal and merciless. Let's not pretend that people here in the UK would not be as bad, if given the chance. And by 'people' here, I don't mean people who might have sympathies to terror organisations, just to be clear.

48%? Where'd you hear that then?

Putins in trouble.

Didnt the American govt sell a war against Afghanistan and Iraq after Saudi Arabians attacked the WTC.

[@toriesdontgettazered7464]

Nice conspiracy theory 😢

Pretty serious message control going on in this channel.

Stop sponsoring HSBC. Whose side are you on? Us, or the 1%?

[@joelapiazza4176]

The condition of the ISIS gunmen when wheeled into the Moscow courtroom is irrelevant. ISIS terrorists engage on suicide missions expecting to 'meet their maker' either while carrying out the atrocities or at the end of their mission.

[@badgertheskinnycow]

You're nice.

[@buzzukfiftythree]

That presumes that those wheeled into court were the terrorists. I’m no conspiracy theorist but I do have some suspicions that they weren’t. It has some echoes of the German Reichstag arson back in the early 1930s.

Psalmid (Laulud)91:Kõigekõrgema kaitse all 1 Kes Kõigekõrgema kaitse all elab ja alati Kõigeväelise varju all viibib, 2 see ütleb Issandale: „Sina oled mu varjupaik ja mu kindel mäelinnus, mu Jumal, kelle peale ma loodan!” 3 Sest tema kisub su välja linnupüüdja paelust, hukkava katku käest. 4 Oma tiivasulgedega kaitseb ta sind ja tema tiibade all sa leiad varju; tema tõde on kilp ja kaitsevall. 5 Ei sa siis karda öö hirmu ega noolt, mis päeval lendab, 6 ei katku, mis rändab pilkases pimedas, ega tõbe, mis laastab lõunaajal. 7 Langegu tuhat su kõrvalt ja kümme tuhat su paremalt poolt, sinu külge see ei puutu. 8 Aga sa vaatad oma silmaga ja näed, kuidas kätte makstakse õelatele. 9 Sest sina, Issand, oled mu varjupaik! Kõigekõrgema oled sina, mu hing, võtnud oma eluasemeks. 10 Ei taba õnnetus sind ega lähene häda su telgile. 11 Sest tema annab oma inglitele sinu pärast käsu sind hoida kõigil su teedel. 12 Kätel nad kannavad sind, et sa oma jalga ei lööks vastu kivi. 13 Sa astud üle lõvide ja rästikute, noored lõvid ja lohed sa lömastad. 14 „Et ta minusse on kiindunud, siis ma päästan tema; ma ülendan tema, sest ta tunneb minu nime. 15 Ta hüüab mind appi ja ma vastan temale; mina olen ta juures, kui ta on kitsikuses, ma vabastan tema ning teen ta auliseks. 16 Pika eaga ma täidan tema ja annan temale näha oma päästet.”
