Parroting the Kremlin line, Russian media is ignoring IS claims of responsibility for the Crocus City attack.

It began with hints. Intimation.

Now, it’s no holds barred accusations.

The Russian authorities are aggressively pushing the line that Ukraine and the West were behind last month’s Crocus City concert hall massacre outside Moscow which left 145 people dead.

The Islamic State group quickly claimed responsibility for the attack. But soon after the suspected gunmen were detained President Vladimir Putin hinted at a Ukrainian connection.

At the weekend Russian state TV broadcast interrogation videos of the four suspects, all citizens of Tajikistan. One of the men said on camera that the post-attack plan had been “to head towards Kyiv”.

Their words must be taken with extreme caution. During a court appearance after their arrest the men showed signs of torture.

    That sounds exactly like a statement from a christian fundie about why I am going to hell. Your statement is not really an argument nor does it form a coherent point.

        Wut? You give no reasoning, no logic, no supporting evidence and spit out a conspiracy theory and expect people to take you seriously? Lulz.

        Fuckin’ trolls.
