Russia’s exiled chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt was speaking after gunmen killed 19 people in the mainly Muslim region of Dagestan in southern Russia in attacks on churches, synagogues and the police.
“The Russian authorities during the last years have used the law enforcement authorities to repress any kind of opposition to the Kremlin, opposition to the war and any movements like the LGBT movement which was declared as extremist. People are sent to prison for criticising the war,” Goldschmidt said in a video interview from Berlin.
“So instead of using law enforcement and the interior ministry and FSB (security service) to provide security for Russian citizens, it’s being used to eradicate any opposition to the regime. And here we see the results, that such terrorists like ISIS are able to again and again mount successful attacks against houses of worship, against cultural events.” […]
Putin offers condolences
The Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin expressed his deep condolences over Sunday’s attacks, but it has not commented on who was to blame or why authorities failed to stop them.

Goldschmidt himself left Russia soon after the start of the war and has encouraged more Jews to follow his example rather than stay on in what he called a “semi-totalitarian” country.
“Tens of thousands of Jews left, and I’m happy they left,” he said. “We are worried for all of those who are still there.”
they’ve been doing that for the last 20 years, this is not news
School shootings make the news and they’re a part of American traditions as well.
At least the bigger ones, the small, weekly events are barely covered.
This Op one is deff larger, took down 15 pigs?
This aint “mass shooting” these are likely ideologically motivated, well prepped men.
i mean this:
this is not a new situation
Their primary task is likely Ukrainian sof and Intel personnel tbh
They do have a war on their hand with daily sabotage within Russia… Deep
