Gunmen kill more than 60 in concert attack near Moscow, Islamic State claims responsibility

MOSCOW, March 22 (Reuters) - Camouflage-clad gunmen opened fire with automatic weapons at concertgoers near Moscow on Friday, killing at least 60 people and injuring 145 in an attack claimed by Islamic State militants. In the deadliest attack in Russia since the 2004 Beslan school siege, gunmen sprayed civilians with bullets just before Soviet-era rock group "Picnic" was to perform to a full house at the 6,200-seat the Crocus City Hall just west of the capital.
...
Islamic State, the militant group that once sought control over swathes of Iraq and Syria, claimed responsibility for the attack, the group's Amaq agency said on Telegram.
...
The United States has intelligence confirming Islamic State's claim of responsibility for the shooting, a U.S. official said on Friday. The official said Washington had warned Moscow in recent weeks of the possibility of an attack.
"We did warn the Russians appropriately," said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, without providing any additional details.
Russia has yet to say who it thinks is responsible.

A month ago (to the day!) at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Victoria "F the EU" Nuland promised that aid to Ukraine would allow it to "accelerate the asymmetric warfare that has been most effective" and that Putin is "sure to face some nasty surprises."
Nuland left her post as the Deputy Secretary of State 10 days prior to this video. Moscow civilians were killed today in an act of terrorism (asymmetrical warfare).

Now that the ISIS patches showing up in Armed Forces of Ukraine photos/videos are trending, it's a good time for me to retweet this thread from last year. The writing was on the wall.

Now Al Qaeda & other Salafist Jihadist groups are reportedly entering Ukraine to fight Russia directly. Coincidentally, last week an ISIS recruiter the Taliban captured said he received funding via Ukraine. The Taliban only released this video domestically. Subtitles by a friend:

Sanctions didn’t work. Billions in weapons didn’t work. Unwavering support didn’t work. Counter-offensive didn’t work. Non-stop propaganda didn’t work.
Rules-based terrorism is all they have left. It won’t work either. It just shows how evil and desperate they are.
