According to articles they've been trying to perpetrates an attack in Moscow for at least the last month.

Im so confused honestly. Firstly, didn't they basically get defeated to the point of only having a few small pockets of control in Syria? Secondly, why Moscow of all places??

Because they are being funned by the US. If you notice resent ISIS attacks have been against us enemies. That also suppor Israel in the Palestine conflict which no principaled Muslim would do. They are just a US puppet at this point.

This is the dumbest take. Why would U.S. warn them then? They even shared the U.S. intelligence with Russian officials on top of the public announcement.

Whats even the benefit to the U.S. or Ukraine for that matter? It galvanizes Russians and doesn't hurt their combat effectiveness at all. All the Ukrainian attacks on Russian soil have been on military targets for the last 3 years. Thats a proven track record.

What are you on about, the US PUBLICLY warned Russia of these attacks DAYS before they happened.

Putin even responded to the US warnings of the Moscow terror attack by mocking them as Western intelligence trying to stir up trouble.

Get your America first mind out of Global politics.

Russia has been killing many ISIS members in Syria for years (and terror groups elsewhere) and this is their response.

They gave a cryptic warning to insulate themselves from accusations as they know people like you would go to bat for them.

What are you on about, Russia is literally invading Europe as we speak, and the west had the courtesy to warn them not once but TWICE, of an impending attack, two weeks and then three days before it occurred.

After Putin didn’t believe the tip off was credible, the US simply told it’s own citizens to avoid large public gatherings in Moscow.

Shock surprise, the attack happens and ISIS have released body cam footage of it happening which you can go watch if you’re sick enough to want to.

The West has absolutely no obligation to share intelligence with a nation that is actively invading Europe and wants our downfall, but we provided some anyway.

It’s the west that wants Russia’s downfall, not the other way around. If the west didn’t mess with Ukraine, none of this would have happened, stop projecting. I’m saying the west provided very cryptic warnings to insulate themselves from blame, it didn’t work. Either Ukraine went rogue or the west was in on it.

Nothing to cry about, your country is committing genocide that’s all. Every death in this war is on Russia’s hands.

But it does. It makes Putin look weak and exasperates already exists tensions in Russia between Muslim and non Muslims. Plus it will force Putin to respond. How will he do this? Well mby attack ISIS. This benefits the US because it will bring Russia directly into the Levant again. It will bring Russian troops into the region the US wants to start a war in.

The presents of Russian troops will give the US more justification to bring more soldiers to the middle east. This will make tensions worse which will make it more likely a regional war will be start.

The US and Israel want a regional war to divert attention away from what Israel is doing in Gaza and it will make it easier to make Israel look like the victim and make the US look like to hero defending the little guy. Which they hope will save some of the destroyed international reputation.

And this was after Russia was supposed to have arrested a group of them.

Supposedly it's isis K, the Afghan franchise, that is said to be responsible for this.

u/FizzixMan Mar 23 '24

This is actually ISIS-K not ISIS, it’s an offshoot that does not focus primarily on the caliphate.

u/Rownever Mar 23 '24

The thing to keep in mind about ISIS is it’s multiple groups working together- the main group of ISIS in Syria is pretty much dead, with almost all of their territory taken back by either the coalition against them or a Syrian faction. Their allied groups in other regions are still around, and still using the same branding and tactics, just with different places and populations.

Interesting, I never realized that. Scary man.

u/OutsideFlat1579 Mar 23 '24

Russia is enemy number one for IS, Russia supported Assad against IS and has been fighting IS in multiple African nations for years. We just don’t hear much about it because it does involve the US.

I mean, the Allies defeated the Nazis too. Doesn’t mean them and their ideology aren’t still a problem today.

u/Jewrachnid Mar 23 '24

They probably attacked because of Russias hand in Syria.

It goes back to Trump’s ordered US withdrawal from Syria in 2019; it was very abrupt and poorly executed, including the apparently unintended release of hundreds of ISIS prisoners! These prisoners also included captured Afghan remnants from Al Quada who joined ISIS and after Guantanamo Bay fell out of favor. The withdrawal was so hastily done, the US military was preoccupied with evacuating themselves before US air strikes obliterated their own bases (to prevent them from falling into enemy hands), so the ISIS prisoners fell through the cracks as some handoff of the Prisoners that was supposed to happen didn’t happen...

The overall military handoff was to Turkey, so these ISIS fighters did have to focus on their own survival for a while, but they’ve had time to regroup and rebuild, and now we’re seeing the predictable outcome.

That’s the “why now”, but as for why Russia, they’re spread so very thin in terms of domestic security, given the human and materiel resources they’ve been pouring into Ukraine the past few years; of all of ISIS’s enemies, Russia is the easiest target at this point

Cool story. ISIS is an enemy of everyone else you mentioned. Be quiet and spread your lies elsewhere.
