LifeNews, a mainstream Russian TV news channel, aired a segment on Thursday in which a regular guest and "expert political analyst" stated that the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack in Paris had in fact been carried out by United States intelligence agencies.

The guest, Alexei Martynov, suggested that US intelligence had launched the Charlie Hebdo attack in order to sabotage the global effort against Islamist terrorism, which he argued Russia is leading. Martynov also argued that the attack was meant to pressure French President Francois Hollande into maintaining Western economic sanctions against Russia.

Putin controls Russian media. It’s the major part of his tactics - internal and external..

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I guess everyone has their set of delusional political analysts.

Lifenews is a disinformation and black propaganda intelligence operation recently setup by Putin’s intelligence services through one of his agents and old friends. Putin is using his corps of Internet trolls to post stories and comments in blogs around the world using LifeNews and other black propaganda sites to more widely disseminate the disinformation.

It’s everyone’s fault but Islam’s.

This is what to expect from the Soviets Russians, and the Mohammedans. Communists are liars. Mohammedans are liars.

(It is left to the reader to apply that to 0bama ...)

Russia has been better about adhering to truth, but this sure was a backslide.

Well,

Considering the intellectual capacity and emotional condition of your typical jihadi is maybe slightly elevated from that of a Liberian
I would say there is a good possibility that someone higher up the food chain might be holding the leash. Didn’t mean to pick one liberians, just that I know a few.

The Russian media also has that song and dance about who shot down their plane. Have to be gullible to believe what they say.
