Not surprised. Righties LOVE false flags and attempts to frame. I’m glad Starmer and UK intelligence saw through the obvious attempt to frame Ukraine.

Makes no sense, why would Russia want to promote anti-islam when Iran is their close ally and Russia is 10% Islamic?

That’s all a part of the playbook. Have you not read The Foundations of Geopolitics?

Weird assumption, what does this book have to say about Russia spreading anti-Islam in the UK?

TheFrirish@tarte.nuage-libre.fr on 16 Jun 03:55 collapse

Mate, Russia finances all the far right parties in Europe, those parties are vehemently anti Islam and immigration ( well anything that’s not white). By creating false flag attacks they can prompt up anti Islam sentiment and get more people to vote for those far right parties. Guess what does Far Right parties advocate for as well? Anti-EU and federation of EU and so on. Divide and conquer.

You promote hate in whatever way possible to cause chaos in the land you dislike, regardless your allies or your own citizens. Divide and conquer doesn’t need to make “sense”, the sole purpose of this is to divide the community. If the community hate islam, you use that. If the community hate you, you use that.

Why would Russia be pro-Islam just because they have diplomatic deals with Iran? That is not how anything works, and especially not diplomacy, and that goes not only for Russia but literally any other country.

Russia promotes whatever it deems helpful to themselves, and that includes buying drones from Iran and promoting extremism in other countries in order to destabilise them.

Can’t be coincidence Starmer is banning Social Media for under 16s, the most impressionable group.

Internet Research Agency would love to turn them to far-right and pro-russia causes.

‘Banning social media for anyone under 16’ is what they call ‘everyone will have to give their govt ID to the shadiest of companies soon’. Which uuuuuuuh are we cool with that

Also you’re not going to stop this by just banning anyone under 16 lol

Wow the comments.

Russia running sabotage across europe through infiltrating telegram channels of extremists, pretending to be one, then paying someone to do something “for the cause” is well documented by now.

They dont care about the cause except for how much of a wedge they can fit into european societies. France has had the worst of it so far but its everywhere.
