Major Russian TV network says US intelligence carried out the Charlie Hebdo attack http://www.vox.com/2015/1/8/7514439/charlie-hebdo-russia-cia?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=vox&utm_content=article:fixed … via @Max_FisherYou ever see something that makes you immediately say WTF! followed by what is the game being played here?
The above did it for me.
I couldn't figure out what this could be about. Russia is facing the same Islamic Terrorist Threat that the rest of the West is.
But then I took a step back in my Wayback Machine and discovered something troubling. Supposedly the Soviet Union sponsored such groups during the cold war. Could they be making a play to crush Chechen separatist at home while stirring the pot in the Middle East, while at the same time arming these groups covertly?
Yeah, it might be a step too far but I can't think of anything else. What do you think the motivation for this could be? I'm stumped.
Could Russia be getting in the terror game?
