9/11, October 7, and the current state of the RUSSIAN STATE TERRORISM: same: “contseptsiya”, same actors same agencies

.While Western analysts historical treated 9/11 (executed by Al-Qaeda) and October 7 (executed by Hamas) as distinct acts of non-state global jihadism, geopolitical experts increasingly argue that Russia uses the same strategic framework, identical agencies, and interlocking networks of non-state ac

#CIA #FBI #Mossad RUSSIAN STATE TERRORISM The term “Russian State Terrorism” refers to the systematic use of violence, sabotage, and assassination plots by the Russian government—primarily through its intelligence services like the Federal Security Service (FSB) and Military Intelligence (GRU)—to intimidate, destabilize, and eliminate political opponents globally. [1, 2, 3] Western intelligence and judicial bodies have increasingly elevated their language from calling these actions “hybrid warfare” or “sabotage” to explicitly labeling them as state-sponsored terrorism due to a pivot toward operations designed to cause mass civilian casualties.

RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: A former Norwegian defense attaché to Ukraine has a blunt message for the West: you’ve tried everything to stop Russia’s war except the one thing that would end it. Since 2014 there’s been diplomacy, sanctions, isolation, arms, and more than 200 rounds of talks, analyst Hans Petter Midttun writes, and Russia used all of it to buy time. “Aid without an endpoint is not a policy for ending the war; it is a policy for enduring it,” he argues. And the cost of enduring it keeps growing. This month it hit American gas pumps, with diesel at a record $5.97 a gallon, which Trump promptly blamed on Ukraine. Midttun calls it one wave of a “tsunami of ripple effects” from

Hospitals are also assessing anti-drone barriers, bulletproof glass and expanded medical stockpiles. A Cold War-era nuclear bunker beneath a hospital in Ulm, capable of sheltering 2,000 people for 90 days, is also being assessed for reactivation. Officials say the biggest challenge is personnel, as only a few hundred German doctors have experience treating wartime injuries.

Russia plotting to kill Ukraine allies in US and Europe, FBI says

from The Guardian.

Russia’s intelligence services are plotting to carry out targeted killings in the United States and in European nations supporting Ukraine, federal authorities said Tuesday as they announced charges against five people who remain at large.

An indictment unsealed in Manhattan federal court said a network of the intelligence services had paid and attempted to pay individuals in the United States and in other countries to surveil targets to be killed with plans to then kill them.

The associates recruited in the network also had been solicited to carry out acts of terrorism against civilian and military infrastructure in European countries that were perceived to be aligned with Ukraine, the indictment said.

James Barnacle Jr, head of New York’s FBI office, said the FBI disrupted the plans “through relentless work” as members of the Russian intelligence services and their affiliates “conspired to intimidate, threaten, or murder people on US soil and around the world”.

Darren Cox, head of the Washington DC office of the FBI, cited “extraordinary work by multiple FBI field offices, components, and partner agencies that collectively disrupted Russia’s attempts to conduct violent acts in our nation’s capital and throughout the United States”.

He said in a release that when the threat was first identified, the FBI’s Washington field office and its partners “moved quickly to disrupt the plot and hold the Russian government accountable for its actions”.

According to the release, a network of people working for the Russian Federation’s intelligence services had since at least 2024 conspired to conduct and had conducted attacks and murders around the world, including within the United States.

It called the Russian intelligence services network “one arm” of the Russian Federation’s apparatus designed to carry out external attacks, including murder, around the world.

Previously, the release said, the network had focused on Russian dissidents and defectors but most recently had targeted nations perceived to be allies of Ukraine.

Recently, it said, members of the network had tried to recruit multiple people in the United States.

Authorities said the network this summer recruited an individual based in the United States to surveil and murder a prominent Russian dissident it believed to be residing in the United States.

The indictment said a person identified only as “US Resident-1” had been sent to two locations associated with the targeted victim and was given “explicit instructions on how to conduct surveillance” while being promised $1,000 and $1,500 to carry out the work.

After conducting the surveillance and providing multiple photographs and videos of locations associated with the intended victim to one of the men charged in the indictment, the US resident turned down the $40,000 that was offered to “eliminate” or “disappear” the target through murder.

When the offer was rejected, the member of the intelligence services who had made it tried to recruit multiple other people within the United States to do the job by offering them substantial amounts of money, the indictment said.
