- Gunmen stormed a concert hall in Moscow on Friday, killing at least 60 people and injuring more than 100.
- Earlier this month, the US embassy issued a security alert warning of a potential terror attack.

Earlier this month, the US embassy in Russia issued a security alert warning about a potential terror attack in Moscow and urged people to avoid crowds, monitor local media for updates, and be aware of surroundings.
“The Embassy is monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and U.S. citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours,” the March 7 security alert said.
Putin addressed the warnings a couple weeks later, criticizing the warning three days ago as “provocative.”

“All this resembles outright blackmail and the intention to intimidate and destabilize our society,” Putin said, according to state media reporting on his remarks.
The US embassy issued another alert on Friday saying it was “aware” of the attack and urged Americans to avoid the area.
There’s a passage in the book ‘The Godfather’ that everyone should read and understand.
One of the most powerful Mafia families in New York rose to power because they were willing to kill people over garbage collection. All the businesses needed trash hauling, and nobody was crazy enough to risk their life to compete with murderers.
Putin wasn’t a genius who gained power through subtle moves; he was a shark who ate up anyone in his way.
Nobody read that book
Nice to meet you Jejdj, I’m nobody
Hi, I’m Nobody.
That book is fucking awesome.
Except for that subplot about that lady’s massive hooha
You know that whole thing is a Greek tragedy reference? Sonny’s massive dick comes from.the same logic Michelangelos’ David has a tiny one. There’s more to it, but it amounts to “Sonny was an animal and died like one”
Yea but I’m not talking about Sonny’s enormous bratwurst. I’m referring to the whole subplot of that chick later meeting a plastic surgeon and getting her kitty tightened.
It’s all connected. I didn’t feel like writing an essay, just pointing you in the explanations direction.
Four day old account, thirteen comments, ALL trolls.
I think it’s fair to predict I’ll be reading all of Mario Puzo’s Godfather books (again) before I’ll be reading anything more from your troll account, lol.
EDITED TO ADD: Already banned for trolling, lol – thank you lemmy.world mods!
