Events in Russia

There has been a number of videos and photos of what the special forces did to interrogate the perpetrators. They are pretty hard hitting and amounts to torture no matter how one looks at it, whether that be cutting off an ear or applying electric currents to the genitals of the terrorists. While there might be special reasons for doing that or putting it on display, I find it disturbing that some find a delight in such methods being applied and making jokes about it. Publishing such content might be done with the view of being a deterrent yet it could also cause a blowback as such images are spread throughout the web. So while I understand that such methods are used to get information and thus help to unravel the network involved, putting it online and for some to enjoy it, doesn't sit right with me.

Yeah, well said.

Sept 13, 2009:
A: Silence in the face of “evil” is equal to participation unless there is a good reason for the silence that serves a higher goal.

Q: (Joe) That’s really interesting because it kind of explains the whole debate over torture, and how they’ve been trying to get people to accept torture. And more and more facts coming out about the reality of the CIA having tortured and trying to twist that around to get people to accept that as something that is conscionable.

A: Acceptance of torture is the “mark of the beast.”

That's likely as true for Russians and the FSB as it is for Americans and the CIA.

Yes, I think the danger here lies in justifying the torture because it is done to the other 'team' and thus a black and white way of thinking. If one falls for that argument, then 'they' have succeeded in getting people to accept torture as being ok. When it isn't.
 
In fact, given the entire desperate panorama prior to this event, the trap to escalate the situation is quite evident... Medvedev said this now:




The main response may be limited to certain murders and thereby send a message back that they are not the only ones who can play at projecting that they have control and that they can try to get away with it... the attack is pure desperation, and that is why it is not necessary to escalate the situation on Russia's part because its plans are already working well enough in Ukraine, the escalations respond mainly to tactical needs and changes in the phases of its operation on the battlefield.
Escalation would have come either way, sooner or later because deep state would not stop and their attacks would become more brazen and would deploy more western troops to Ukraine, and Russia would respond in kind. Hubris.

Yes, it is an interesting, and contradictory aspect of Russian legalism. There is simultaneously the romantic version of the gentleman's war of the Geneva Convention, and the practical reality. I personally know a spetsnaz sniper from Transnistria who fought for Russia in Chechnya, and skinning enemies alive was the practice. The thing in me, first-world academic bourgeois aroused infinite vomit at the time. But in time, even if the infinite vomit continues, you realize where appearances stop.

Agreed and hasn't Putin already acknowledged that the West wants to exterminate Russia - it's a war of survival! "They" are going for all the marbles not only with Russia, but in the US against Trump. The clock is ticking and their desperation is escalating. One can only guess what the new "program" change will be or when it will be activated.
 
It could also be an attempt to set a trap for Russia. To encourage them to take action that would ignite a wider NATO war, which is precisely what the deep state wants, another war in Europe, from which they alone emerge as the real victors, just like WW2.
Yes, I think this is likely. The Nulands and Grahams of the US are safe, thousands of miles away. What would they care if millions of people would die in Europe and Russia. So, as they’ve done previously, they think that by creating a grave tragedy like this will make Putin and Russia react emotionally and do something reckless and stupid, which will ignite a war in Europe and also cause a regime change in Russia. Perfect plan! Except that it has never worked, and never will. But that’s the Neocon doctrine: when losing, double down!
 
I noticed some interesting analysis in Russian TG.

First there is this:

FSB reserve colonel Andrei Prispeshkin - about the strangeness of the perpetrators of the terrorist attack in Crocus and who was the customer:
✔️ Based on international and my own experience, I would say that a large team, at least 20-25 people, worked. In the news we can only see the performers. But there were many more people involved in this monstrous event. Some conducted reconnaissance of the area, others studied the technical documentation of "Krokus", others equipped weapons, etc.
✔️ In my opinion, the preparations for this terrorist attack were thorough and took place well in advance. Everything could not have caught fire instantly from a single grenade or Molotov cocktail. There must have been additional combustible materials in some rooms, and arson was set in different places of the building. It does not happen that such a man-made impact was from something small. Everything was carefully prepared. Those who committed the heinous crime are cogs in the machine, who performed their task.
✔️ They definitely had some kind of training beforehand. Perhaps they had already participated in some kind of military action. Maybe in Ukraine, Central Asia, Palestine. From scratch, not fired upon, cannot behave so cold-bloodedly, even under the influence of some psychotropic drugs.
✔️ It seems to me that the goal was set: as many victims as possible and as terrible a terrorist attack as possible. To make the whole world shudder. The fire was set so that the visitors who were suffocating in smoke would panic and scream in terror. On the one hand, it doesn't matter how a person died - from a bullet or from smoke. The more horrific the footage, the greater the effect.
✔️ The detainees' affiliation with ISIS has never been heard anywhere - neither from our investigators nor from them themselves. As far as I have encountered members of this terrorist organization, I can judge: if they commit something and get caught, the first thing they do is admit their involvement. In addition, ISIS most often operates in a different way - shahid belts, explosions, hostage-taking. Here the tactics are completely different.
✔️ I think that the terrorist attack was developed, sponsored, and carried out by one of the Western intelligence agencies. There have always been two strongest intelligence services in the world - British and Russian. Talks that now the CIA has allegedly come to the forefront do not correspond to reality. MI6 has always been engaged in Central Asia, the southeast, that is, the Arab world. Now the task is to sway and split society, to divide Orthodox Christians from Muslims, Russians from Tajiks, etc.

Then the following analysis was released on Airborne Force "Archangel Spetsnaz" TG channel at midnight Moscow time, just several hours after the attack. Notice the first impression of Spetsnaz soldiers:

THE TERRORIST ATTACK AT CROCUS. Our view.

The following conclusions can be drawn from the nature of the actions of the members of the terrorist group that committed the mass murder in the Crocus shopping center:

- the individuals have a history of combat experience;
- the terrorists were well-trained in a training camp;
- skillful with weapons, namely fire transfer on the move, plus refined reloading of weapons;
- the enemy has practiced all the timed elements of a terrorist attack;
- acted without unnecessary emotion and shot unarmed people in cold blood (probably under the influence of substances);
- the enemy's weapons had mounted tuning in the form of flashlights and loupes.
- The weapon is not the first freshness, the very channel of the barrel or receiver is destroyed from the inside and sparks "let dragons", that is, the weapon was lying somewhere for a long time and improperly stored, the so-called "banks" if they had them from this also did not save.
-worked not fanatics, simply because such shoot or explode on the spot (well or at least give a fight);

Unfortunately, at present we are dealing with a well-organized group, yesterday's "shepherd" could not do that.

And this:

Our view on how the terrorists in Crocusa worked in terms of tactics and actions.

The night analysis was made on the basis of video footage of the tragedy, how the work with weapons, movement, tactics was organized, and not from analyzing the autobiographies and resumes of each of the suspects in the terrorist attack who were detained.

"They handled weapons skillfully, did not close their eyes, did not lose orientation in space from the sound of gunshots, did not flinch, did not faint from the sight of the victims and the consequences of defeat, there were no emotions. From an eyewitness."

And this:

And there is one more point regarding the terrorists' weapons. AK-12, which was painted for camouflage, dodger on the weapon and not very good condition of the weapon itself. This chain of facts suggests that the weapon was brought from the SWO zone, which again points to the customer of this act of terror. Which once again confirms our opinion about the preparedness of this contingent - the operation was planned in advance. They definitely did not take the weapons yesterday, and if they were recruited a month ago, they were most likely given lessons in social networks on how to handle weapons.

But then there was also the analysis of the same TG page that did analysis of 7th of October in Israel. Here is part 1, part 2 of their "Crocus" analysis. They present some different conclusions, but they are still interesting and curious.

It could also show that there were indeed much more people involved, and some of them were indeed professionals, and that the ones that were caught are patsies.

The terrorist attack in "Crocus" in questions and answers: parsing the Military Chronicle. Part 1.

🔺In this analysis we will try to examine some of the circumstances of the events of the evening of March 22. In our observations, we will mainly rely on what can be documented: the footage of eyewitnesses, which we managed to analyze, as well as other statements and chains of circumstances.

The reason for the attack

As the role of Ukraine's GUR (and its supervising intelligence service MI6) becomes more and more obvious, it is worth recalling a few dates. One of the terrorists, 19-year-old Shamsutdin Faridullin, states during interrogation that he returned to Russia on March 4. It is not yet possible to reliably establish the date of arrival of the other members of the group, but most likely they were going to the end of February - beginning of March. It is also curious that on March 5, there were reports that Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland said that there were some "surprises" for Russia. She made this statement on the eve of her resignation. And a few days before the terrorist attack (and on the eve of the presidential election in Russia), the attempt of the Ukrainian GUR, with the help of RDK militants, to seize several border villages in Belgorod and Kursk regions almost completely collapsed. If we put these facts together, then the terrorists' recruitment and their further use look like a kind of "safety net" for the GUR in case the main plan fails. (We have already repeatedly mentioned that the main task of the GUR is media strikes).

Terrorists: professionals or random performers?

It is highly probable that the Central Asians who organized the shooting are neither professional military nor representatives of any law enforcement agencies.
Once on the territory of Crocus, although they move between the premises, they do it mostly chaotically. It would not be wrong to say that because of the actions of the terrorists they interfere with each other, cross the line of fire and generally behave like people who do not expect armed resistance and have no experience of real fire contact, when the key importance is to sort out the sectors of fire, competent expenditure and rapid advancement, distribution of areas of responsibility in the room and much more.

Militants, on the contrary, make a number of mistakes, which in the security forces, and even more so in the army, are knocked out in the literal sense of the word. For example, while standing near the metal detectors at the entrance, one of the terrorists shot at people near the door, while the others, instead of monitoring the perimeter, simply looked at the same point. One of the militants then ran aslant across the line of fire.

Militants are proficient with weapons, but the primary skills of fire control and management can be learned in a relatively short course of training. It is also interesting that the terrorists did not use walkie-talkies during the attack and operated mostly by maintaining visual contact, which is also uncharacteristic of professionals.

Tactics

Available video footage of the attack is scarce, but it speaks rather in favor of the fact that the group has no clear tactics. They did not control the space even visually (if they were professionals, one or two shooters would have been allocated for control).
However, given their small numbers, this was not possible on the scale of such a huge complex as Crocus City Hall. The use of Molotov cocktails instead of IEDs also draws attention. Their preparation does not require special skills, unlike an improvised explosive device, the assembly of which gives an inexperienced terrorist a high chance of death, not to mention the fact that a militant can be "accepted" at the stage of acquiring explosives.

The terrorist attack in "Crocus" in questions and answers: parsing the Military Chronicle. Part 2.

In the first part of the analysis we touched upon the main controversial points related to the terrorist attack. Now it is necessary to delve into the details.

Do the terrorists belong to radical Islamists?

Until March 24, it was believed that they were rather not. However, the emergence of a new video of militants shouting slogans long known to everyone has changed a lot of things. A lot, but not everything. The group of terrorists in Crocus, despite the publication of the video on allegedly terrorist resources and an obvious attempt to sway public opinion in the direction of involvement of ISIS*, behaved completely uncharacteristic of typical Islamist radicals: the militants went about their "business" without "suicide belts" with striking elements and clearly did not seek martyrdom (which is characteristic of many militants of the same ISIS), did not take hostages and did not make demands. The publication of the video with the first-person shooting of civilians on the terrorists' resources de facto does not change the essence of what is happening and rather on the contrary - emphasizes the connection with the GUR. Under the patronage of this special service, by the way, an entire Syrian battalion of Jabhat al-Shamiya (banned in Russia), including Central Asians, is fighting in Ukraine.

The narrative about the involvement of ISIS (whose connection to Western intelligence services has always been obvious) was initially promoted for the sake of distancing the GSD (and Ukraine as a whole) from the operation, but in reality it was this attempt to "launder" the Ukrainian Intelligence Department that emphasized the connection between the radicals and Kiev.

The withdrawal plan

The most mysterious and controversial part of the terrorist attack. After being detained, the militants said they threw away their weapons on a road in the Bryansk region and fled the scene of the terrorist attack by car. At the same time, the group managed to leave Moscow through Friday's traffic jams. This point is worth studying in particular, because without detailed knowledge of the city or "hints" from the outside, it would have been difficult to pull this off.
The attackers drove together and did not split up, nor did they change (and, importantly, did not prepare in advance) another car to leave. If these were professionals whose job it was to evacuate as quickly and discreetly as possible, these mistakes likely would not have been made.

What's the bottom line?

So far it looks as follows. The terrorist group was "expendable."
There was no point in training them as a professional team. Most likely, none of those who ordered the attack even expected that the terrorists would survive the action, much less go on the run.

P.S There are still many white spots and inconsistencies in the story. It is possible that in the future there will be information revealing the details of the preparation, the number and, importantly, the identities of all those involved in the operation.

And then there is this recent post also on Spetsnaz TG page.

TERRORIST TRIAL.

The trial is over and what we know now is:

-One terrorist wanted to work in a cab;
-The second terrorist worked at a parquet factory in the city of Podolsk and listened to the "preacher";
-The third terrorist worked as a barber in the city of Ivanovo;
-The fourth terrorist was unemployed and does not remember where he was registered in Russia;
- Three of them have children;
- One of them hit a child;
- One of them had a fine the court ordered him to make a "controlled independent exit" from Russia;
- All the defendants sat silent, showed no emotion, fear and emptiness in their eyes was visible;
- Photos from March 7 were found with one of the participants of the shooting in "crocus city", what he was doing there "walking around".

A handler was connected with them, they were paid, given weapons, developed a plan, told the time and they committed a terrorist act against civilians.

They fled to the border with Ukraine but were stopped by law enforcement officers. When detained, they were found to have a PM.

At the moment they will be sent to the jail, and after that they will be given life imprisonment.
 
These one-off events prompt me to remember that if alleged Muslim (or other) terror cells actually wanted to paralyze a country it would take very, very few people to do so.
Are you sure it doesn't happen practically the way you described? There is some non-public information that the number and "quality" of prevented acts in Russia currently exceeds some unspoken "threshold of acceptability" and that is why this information will not become public.
Regarding the raised topic of the unacceptability of torture. C's openly told us all that Putin is an animated person, not some kind of OP. From this I conclude that such a practice will not become legal, but why and for what it happens. It is especially important why it is made public.
My assumption comes from what was said by the Russian leadership about the use of nuclear weapons by Russia. If you do not quote verbatim, then the meaning is this: these weapons will be used with an obvious threat to the existence of the state, regardless of whether this threat is nuclear or not. It is also important to note that the use of these weapons in decision-making centers has been announced. This is a good signal in the sense that the "decision-making center" can be interpreted as broadly as you like and no one can be sure that in some case the Rothschild Castle or any similar object will not be recognized as this center. I hope that this signal is perceived at the appropriate level, and now let's move to a much lower level. By analogy with the above, what happened to the notorious genitals and ears is also a transparent signal to future terrorist candidates that in case of detention they will not just be locked in a confined space for a long time (possibly indefinitely), but that staying in this enclosed space will be as "uncomfortable" as possible for them. In this case, I also hope that the signal will be properly received. The result of this, in my opinion, may be a decrease in the number of people willing to earn in this way.

Вы уверены, что это не происходит практически так как вы описали? Есть некоторая непубличная информация о том, что количество и "качество" предотвращаемых актов в текущее время в России уже превышает некоторый негласный "порог приемлемости" и именно поэтому эта информация не станет публичной.
Касательно поднятой темы неприемлемости пыток. C's всем нам открыто сказали, что Путин одушевленный человек, а не какой-нибудь OP. Отсюда я делаю вывод, что законной такая практика не станет, но почему и для чего это происходит. Особенно важно для чего это делают публичным.
Моё предположение исходит из того, что было сказано Российским руководством по поводу применения ядерного оружия Россией. Если не цитировать дословно, то смысл такой: это оружие будет применено при явной угрозе существования государства, безотносительно ядерная будет эта угроза или нет. Также важно отметить, что заявлено применение этого оружия по центрам принятия решений. Это хороший сигнал в том смысле, что "центр принятия решений" можно трактовать как угодно широко и никто не может быть уверенным в том, что в каком то случае этим центром не будет признан замок Ротшильдов или любой подобный объект. Я надеюсь, что этот сигнал воспринят на соответствующем уровне, а теперь перейдем на уровень сильно пониже. По аналогии с вышесказанным то, что произошло с пресловутыми гениталиями и ушами тоже является прозрачным сигналом будущим кандидатам в террористы о том, что в случае задержания они не просто будут надолго (возможно бессрочно) заперты в ограниченном пространстве, а о том, что пребывание в этом закрытом пространстве будет для них максимально "некомфортно". В этом случае я тоже надеюсь, что сигнал будет должным образом воспринят. Итогом этого, на мой взгляд может быть снижение количества желающих заработать таким образом.
 
Discussions in Russia on the abolition of the moratorium on the death penalty have intensified greatly. I think that it is humanly clear to everyone why.
Kremlin's statements on the progress of the investigation of the terrorist attack in Crocus

The Kremlin has made a number of statements about the progress of the investigation into the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall.

President Vladimir Putin will hold a meeting today to discuss measures taken after the terrorist attack, Russian leader's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

Peskov noted that the Russian special services are working on the terrorist attack in Crocus independently, there is no question of any help from other countries.

The fight against terrorism requires international cooperation, and at the same time it is not being conducted in any way due to the most aggravated period, he stressed.

The Kremlin will not comment on the progress of the investigation, and the Kremlin is not taking part in the discussion on the possibility of lifting the moratorium on the death penalty in Russia, Peskov said.

It is a thankless task to protect such characters.
None of the four accused in the Crocus terrorist attack could find a lawyer
The interests of the arrested were represented by lawyers provided by the State
MOSCOW, March 25. /tass/. The interests of all four accused of the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall were represented by lawyers provided by the state, not a single defender volunteered to defend the defendants in the case. This was reported to TASS in court.

"All four defendants were defended by lawyers provided by the state," the agency interlocutor said.

The Basmanny court yesterday arrested four defendants - Dalerjon Mirzoev, Saidakram Rachabalizod, Shamsidin Fariduni and Mukhammadsobir Fayzov. The rulings have not yet entered into force and can be appealed to the court of appeal.

Дискуссии в России об отмене моратория на смертную казнь сильно активизировались. Думаю, что по человечески всем понятно почему.
Неблагодарное это дело-защищать подобных персонажей.
 
In this case, I also hope that the signal will be properly received. The result of this, in my opinion, may be a decrease in the number of people willing to earn in this way.
I think studies have shown that torture does not work. The US have widely used torture like in Guantanamo Bay or in Afghanistan, but that didn't stop the local people from fighting them. In this Special Military Operation, Ukraine routinely uses torture on POWs but that doesn't stop Russians from fighting in Ukraine, though they know the risk if taken prisoners. The publicized videos and pictures will also be used in the West which as Putin said is way ahead of Russia when it comes to PR. So it will be used in the West to underline their narrative that Russians are savages even if they themselves do the same or worse.

Just because it was done does not mean that Putin is agreeing with what happened and despite what the West says, then there are also other people in Russia taking important decisions at different levels of the leadership.
 
Maybe I'm wrong, but i think the media boom of this islam hero boy is to be read as internal damage control, see the "resurrection" of the decisive role of Kadyrov's akmat battalion in the capture of "islamic terrorists". I repeat. Putin is not completely stupid (3d basic condition) . And he knows very well everything even only in 3d terms. For me the most interesting thing is how he will handle that.

"The authorities of Western countries condemned the terrorist attack in Crocus and stated that they support the Russian people. Before their eyes are attacks by ISIS terrorists in European cities. Terror tactics, however, are changing. The killers of people in Crocus did not take hostages and did not make demands as they once did. They, unlike the ISIS militants in Europe, were not suicide bombers, but tried to escape. Their actions do not in all respects resemble an act of religious and political fanaticism. This forces us to look for explanations in the area of current conflicts."

"ISIS"- greetings with the left hand

Alina Lipp
, the German Reporter who lives in the Krim, published a telegram entry in her channel "Neues aus Russland / News from Russia", wrote following regarding the strange "left handed" greetings in video appearances. The left hand in islam is considered to be the "dirty hand".

IMAGE 2024-03-25 18:01:29.jpg

⚠️Hier a fact that destroys the whole theory about ISIS being responsible for the terrorist attack.

In the photo with the terrorists and the IS flag, which is actively circulated in the media, the terrorists raise a finger in praise of Allah, but they do it with the LEFT hand.

This is absurd, in Islam the left hand is considered "dirty". It is not allowed to point to Allah with it, only with the right hand.

You will say that the photo has been mirrored? And then what about the ISIS flag with the seal of the Prophet? Or was that some kind of camera that mirrors people but not the flag?

No, of course not.

These people have nothing to do with radical Islam or ISIS.

I think what happened was this:

1. the organizers of the attack asked the perpetrators to film this content.

2. the photo of the flag and the video of the shooting were leaked to AMAK, the ISIS news agency.

3. the organisers did not notice the connection with the left hand of the "Islamist perpetrators", as they do not know Islam in detail and are generally quite distant from it, they are literally "Slavic brothers".

4. the AMAK published everything for lack of alternatives, even if the left hand was raised.

By and large, the case is solved.

An article by Maria Zakharova on the terrorist attack at the Cronus City Hall in Moscow.

Biden likes ISIS, not peace​


The US spin doctors have driven themselves into a trap by claiming that the terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall in Moscow was perpetrated by ISIS, a terrorist organisation banned in Russia. It is also clear why they are doing this. Obviously, they have no other way out.

There is ample direct and indirect evidence of the current US administration’s involvement in sponsoring Ukrainian terrorism. This includes billions of dollars and an unprecedented amount of arms invested in the Kiev regime, based on corruption schemes, where no accounts were submitted; the use of aggressive rhetoric towards Russia and rabid nationalism; a ban on peace talks on Ukraine and endless calls for the conflict to be settled by force; the refusal to discuss the Kiev regime’s years-long terrorist attacks; and massive media and political support for even the most horrible crimes committed by Zelensky. Hence Washington’s daily effort to cover up for their charges in Kiev and the attempt to shift the blame away from themselves and the Zelensky regime they have nurtured by using the bogey of ISIS (an organisation banned in Russia).

 
"So far it looks as follows. The terrorist group was "expendable." There was no point in training them as a professional team. Most likely, none of those who ordered the attack even expected that the terrorists would survive the action, much less go on the run."

Yes, I'd say the above is closer to the mark. I have of course zero expertise in the tactics and maneuvers of these kind of terrorist massacers but from what I saw in those horrific videos the skills and movements of these guys were not anywhere close of those 'Navy Seals' or 'Speznats' guys you see in e.g. military competitions or drills. No 'securing the perimeter' etc. In one clip one of the terrorists enter a vestibule without ever looking to the sides after entering, just shooting randomly in various directions. And as the article says, and what also caught my attention, was their weird amateurish escape in the Renault that they arrived in. The article points out that real pros would've split and taken different escape routes and switched cars or something.

So, yes, useful expendable idiots with some necessary training to get the job done. Hmm...smells like CIA. :cool2:

I will answer a little out of order.
One fairly well-known blogger called these four detainees donkey-faced. I'll use that name.
So these donkey-faced people hardly know about such studies and hardly ever heard the name Guantanamo. Apparently, according to the organizers' plan, these donkey-faced people should have died in Crocus (I can explain why I think so), although they themselves did not think so, but if they managed to get to Ukraine, they would immediately be killed there and this would make it easier for the organizers to switch the arrows to ISIS. Which is what they are doing with all their might in all the media right now.
Further. I did not say that such methods (torture) can save someone from something. I will say more. Russia has experience dealing with terrorism in its various manifestations, although we hear about such things very rarely. Practice shows that nothing can be done at all with ideological people, especially with suicide bombers (religious and any other, but this is not our case). Again, practice shows that there is no effective protection against such attacks, except for preventive measures. Experienced people say that there have been cases of such successful attacks on sensitive facilities, i.e. facilities with armed guards. The only question is the quality of planning, preparation and execution. In this sense, the publication of ears, etc., of the like can only be as a preventive measure and only in relation to those who, like these very donkey-faced ones, can gather in this way to earn money.
As for SMO, the situation is somewhat different here. I do not know how much information you have about the prisoners on both sides, but apparently less than I do, although I cannot say that I have complete information. Ukrainians torture prisoners, test weapons on them (in particular, new ammunition for drones) and simply kill them. You obviously know that. Russian soldiers also know this, which is why there are quite a few cases when soldiers commit suicide at the threat of being captured. On the Ukrainian side, there are also such cases, but there are much fewer of them, because on the one hand their commanders pump them up with tales of terrible torture in Russian captivity, and on the other hand there are just a huge number of videos where captured Ukrainians talk about real conditions of detention. Ukrainian prisoners are often allowed to contact their relatives. Thus, the real information is somehow distributed.
As for Western PR. I will allow myself to respond with the words of Minister Lavrov. In one of the interviews, the correspondent began his question with the words: in the eyes of the West... Lavrov, without letting him finish, said: I don't care about the eyes of the West.
In other words, the address of these publications was inside, and what happens outside, in this case, does not matter.
And finally, as for Putin. I can roughly imagine the number of bosses between Putin and the one who cut off the donkey's ear, and I understand that before cutting off this ear, he did not ask Putin for permission. If he asked anyone at all.

Я отвечу немного не по порядку.
Один довольно известный блоггер назвал этих четырех задержанных ослолицыми. Я воспользуюсь этим названием. Так вот эти ослолицые вряд ли знают о подобных исследованиях и вряд ли вообще слышали название Гуантанамо. Судя по всему, по плану организаторов эти ослолицые вообще должны были погибнуть еще в Крокусе (могу пояснить почему я так думаю), хотя сами они так не считали, но если бы им удалось добраться до украины, их немедленно убили бы там и это облегчило бы организаторам переведение стрелок на ИГИЛ. Чем они сейчас и занимаются изо всех сил во всех средствах массовой информации.
Далее. Я не говорил, что подобные методы (пытки) могут кого то от чего то избавить. Я скажу больше. В России есть опыт обращения с терроризмом в разных его проявлениях, хотя мы слышим о таких вещах весьма редко. Практика показывает, что с идейными людьми, тем более со смертниками (религиозными и любыми другими, но это не наш случай) вообще ничего сделать нельзя. Опять же практика показывает, что против подобных нападений нет эффективной защиты, кроме превентивных мер. Опытные люди говорят, что были случаи подобных успешных нападений на режимные объекты, т.е. объекты с вооруженной охраной. Вопрос только в качестве планирования, подготовки и исполнения. В этом смысле публикация ушей и пр. подобного может быть только в качестве превентивной меры и только в отношении тех, кто, как вот эти самые ослолицые, может собраться таким способом заработать.
Что касается СВО, то здесь ситуация несколько другая. Я не знаю сколько у вас информации по поводу пленных с обоих сторон, но видимо меньше чем у меня, хотя я не могу сказать что обладаю полной информацией. Украинцы пытают пленных, испытывают на них оружие (в частности новые боеприпасы для дронов) и просто убивают. Вы очевидно это знаете. Российские солдаты это так же знают, именно поэтому довольно много случаев, когда солдаты кончают с жизнью при угрозе попадания в плен. С украинской стороны такие случаи тоже есть, но их намного меньше, потому что с одной стороны их командиры накачивают их байками об ужасных пытках в российском плену, а с другой стороны существует просто огромное количество видео, где пленные украинцы рассказывают о реальных условиях содержания. Пленным украинцам зачастую дают связаться с родственниками. Таким образом реальная информация так или иначе распространяется.
Что касается западного пиара. Я позволю себе ответить словами министра Лаврова. В одном из интервью корреспондент начал свой вопрос словами: в глазах запада... Лавров, не дав ему договорить, сказал: мне наплевать на глаза запада.
Другими словами адрес этих публикаций был внутри, а что происходит снаружи, в данном случае, наплевать.
Ну и напоследок, что касается Путина. Я примерно представляю количество начальников между Путиным и тем, кто отрезал ослолицему ухо и понимаю, что прежде чем отрезать это ухо, он не у Путина спрашивал разрешение. Если вообще у кого то спрашивал.
