It has been a long time since Moscow was bloodbathed by terrorists, but the subsequent developments are becoming clear. On the one hand, the origin and backers of these terrorists have become clear, on the other hand, Russia's goal of using this kind of thing to promote justice on the battlefield in Ukraine is also clear, and the latest threat to Russia by terrorists has a clear intention to attract all the firepower.
Let's start with the sources and backers of the terrorists. According to Russian reports, the terrorists who entered the country from Turkey have been planning for a long time and have been training in a camp in Istanbul, Turkey. After Russia's interrogation, Russia made high-profile accusations that Ukraine financed the terrorists while working closely with Turkish intelligence. Turkey's national intelligence group then raided two terrorist training camps and subsequently arrested 40 more suspects in eight Turkish provinces. In other words, the Islamic State is directly behind the terrorist attacks in Moscow, and it has been served in Turkey. Of course, the Turkish side will not now publicly declare the fact that it has become a training base for the Islamic State, and the Russian side is also deliberately saying that these attacks are related to Ukraine, and the two sides coincide on the issue of not hyping up the progress of counter-terrorism. So, is the Islamic State's attack on Russia over? The answer is no. An even more exaggerated thing has emerged: the propaganda network of the Islamic State Khorasan group, a poster released by the Azaim Media Foundation, shows that the group is "planning another terrorist attack on the territory of the Russian Federation." The widely circulated Russian-language poster features a masked man with a broadsword, warning Putin and the Russians of a price. The original words were: "The jihadists of ISIL can punish you for your barbaric acts." ”
We have said earlier that ISIS is likely to become a tool in the great power game, but it cannot be said that the United States is directly controlling this terrorist organization behind the scenes. Truth be told, the United States must be happy to see the attacks of the Islamic State and Russia continue to ease the West's plight on the battlefield in Ukraine. And the Islamic State will definitely get paid for such an attack, although it does not have to be directly funded by the United States. If the Ukraine crisis continues, the reason why ISIS stands up to challenge Russia is that we should also pay attention to its historical origins.
On the one hand, the Islamic State and Russia have a blood feud on the battlefield in Syria, and the Russian army has killed many important members of the Islamic State. Second, Russia has also become a thorn in the side of the Islamic State because of its direct support for the Syrian government, and Iran also has such a situation; third, the presence of Russian troops in Central Asia has led to the containment of the development of ISIS forces in several stanstan countries; fourth, the Islamic State is said to be dissatisfied with Russia's domestic minority policy, including the suppression of Chechen rebels, etc.; fifth, The Islamic State and the Taliban are mortal enemies, and Russia supports the Taliban on the Afghan issue, which is also an important reason for the attack on the Russian embassy in Afghanistan by the Islamic State. From the point of view of the Islamic State, the real hope for the development of this terrorist force is Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, and these places either have Russian-backed governments or Russian troops, and even African countries have Wagner mercenaries, so it certainly makes sense to target Russia.
It can be seen that the Islamic State has enough motives to attack Russia, and if someone gives another sum of money to help Ukraine relieve pressure through such an attack, then everything is very clear. For Russia, now it wants to take revenge on the Islamic State, that is, to act together with Turkish intelligence, but after this nest is destroyed, there will be a new nest, and the threat of terrorist attacks facing Russia has not been eradicated. If ISIS is used by a major power, or if it is bought with money through a variety of clandestine channels, the consequences will be very serious.
