I Have Something to Say

Yesterday, when I heard about the attack in Istanbull, it was reported that Putin had sent his condolences.

Why, I thought this, I don't know, but it popped into my mind that, "I think those terrorists are Russian," which as it turns out they are...or as reported, from the old USSR (whatever that means these days).

Now why would I even have that thought? Intuition? Skepticism about how some governments operate behind the scenes? I don't know, it didn't surprise me though when I just found out where they were from.

The problem is, Russia has to deal with Terrorism in a bad way. Putin is always fighting it in his own country and deals with it harshly. Yes the guy was from Russia, but his religion was Islamic. They have a bad bad problem with this. Putin himself is an Orthodox and fiercely protective of the church.
I personally feel that in no way shape or form did the government of Russia have anything to do with this.
