Russia claims the U.S. is behind the alleged Ukrainian drone attack on the Kremlin

Russia claimed Thursday that the United States was behind an alleged drone attack on the Kremlin that it said was a Ukrainian attempt to assassinate President Vladimir Putin.

The accusation, made without citing evidence, comes less than 24 hours after Moscow said that it had foiled an overnight drone strike on the building that acts as the heart of the country’s government and Putin’s residence — something Kyiv strongly denied.

But Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov went further Thursday, claiming Washington had masterminded the incident. The U.S. swiftly rejected the accusation, saying it had nothing to do with it.

“We are well aware that decisions on such a level of terrorist attacks are made not in Kyiv, but in Washington,”

I don’t know if our military still has that amount of expertise.

Soros, Putin and Biden want a nuclear war. I don’t know what they’re waiting for.

“I can assure you there was no involvement by the United States. Whatever it was didn’t involve us,” he said in an interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” early Thursday. “We had nothing to do with this, so Peskov is just lying there, pure and simple.”

He's lying. The deep state has taken over the United States. Biden is NOT in charge. We know that. The beast power controls the United States.

What dragged the US into WWI was german U-boats sinking liners and US flagged ships. The tipping point was the German cable to Mexico asking them to attack the US on the side of Germany. Mexico would be given territory lost during the Mexican-American war.

Otherwise Wilson wanted nothing to do w the War in Europe. All sides were sufficiently drained.

Orchestrating a false-flag attack on the Kremlin suggests to me that Putin is desperate.

If US was behind the attack it would have actually been effective.

We have had some successes like the Great Raid of Cabanatuan and Osama Bin Laden, however recent history has not been fabulously successful…

Bay of Pigs
Operation Eagle Claw
Operation Gothic Serpent
Grenada
Benghazi
Operation Red Wings
Etc…

Yep.

The Piano Puppet doesn't call ANY of the shots.

Princep was part of the large and influential terror group Young Bosnia, a part of the Serbian Black Hand. A group determined to create a Greater Serbia. Ferdinand was targeted because he was expected to greatly modify Austrian treatment of their minorities when he ascended to the throne. There were as many as five assassins waiting for him that morning in Sarajevo.

We invaded a country and there was a helicopter crash.

Don’t be ridiculous.

It was VERY effective, the US Constitution and Bill of Rights are further suppressed and captive of the Biden Crime Family, Deep Swamp Warmongers and GloboHomoNazis, while Legacy American Citizens are hunted, persecuted and disarmed in their own country.

Talk to our own planners. They’re the ones who call it a “lesson learned”.

We successfully invaded a country and lost 19 men and stopped the communist in that nation and rescued many 100s of Americans.

And you want to denigrate it for some reason.

All they do is denigrate everything America has ever done. Even under Reagan who avoided military actions.

Why are you picking a fight with me? It is our own war planners who call it a debacle! They use it as a case study in lack of inter-branch communications. why do you not know this?

Yes, true. I just finished Barbara Tuchman’s book “The Guns of August” and when I said “We” I meant “We” as in the world, not the USA.
