I am SHOCKED! SHOCKED! that the CIA did not share their plans for the attack with the Russians!
Only Putin fanboys think the corrupt and incompetent Biden administration is guilty of anything.
The State Dept issued a public warning two weeks ahead. Or course the Russians knew at least that much, if not from their own intel they can read our public statements. How much more detail the State Dept had or could have shared is obviously unknown.
But as for establishing “innocence” it can just as easily be turned around to claim evidence of guilt or complicity. “The Americans knew it and didn’t warn us” or even “The Americans planned this and warned their own people to get out” like all those conspiracy theories on 9-11 about people being warned ahead of time.
I understand. If they were specific, they would likely be giving away information that might get the source killed. One problem you have is, you don’t know what information the other side has. They can combine what they know with your specific information and determine how to destroy your network.
The Israelis had Momar Kadafi’s brother-in-law working for them. He had dinner every night with Kadafi. They gave information on a terror attack and provided the source. At a Washington dinner party somebody said something critical to Jimmy Carter and he felt obligated to defend why he’d done something, so he said, “Well we know from Kadafi’s brother-in-law suchandsuch.” The man was tortured to death. So, if you want to protect your network you never, never give any specific information. The information they gave was indeed specific enough, that it would be a concert venue attack, that the Russians could have taken protective action. Instead, Putin ridiculed the warning.
Remember, the Russians are not our friends. BTW, last I heard, the Israelis no longer give specific information to the CIA, because there are Jimmy Carters everywhere in the US government.
The Russians warned us about the Tsaernev brothers and we did nothing with the information.

President Merkin Muffley: Dimitri, just put everything you got in the that location and you can’t miss.
The world was told how noble the Biden regime intel was in informing Russia.
The private part is that it was actually a threat.
That is how this Biden regime rolls.
The public version of the warning was that the target was a concert in Moscow. That’s pretty specific and certainly actionable. The official communication was almost certainly more detailed, but even if it wasn’t, it was enough to be helpful. Reports (and video from security cameras) indicate there was absolutely zero security at the concert, despite warnings.
The CIA knew the Ukrainian operation was just about ready so they needed some cover story.
Exactly.
What about large gatherings don’t they understand? If you’re having one, add extra security.
Giving notification that some kind of terrorist attack is coming is a humane action. There’s no need to support it with specifics about sources and methods, which is what the Russians want.
Like a psychic with a crystal ball.
