Russia is the reigning champion of false flags.
Their war against Finland, was premeditated on a false flag. They shelled their own town and claimed the finns did it Same against Poland. Although in that case I believe it was more of an opportunity to take advantage of the Nazis false flag in the Radio Tower incident that they used for their own casus belli
Putins rise to power revolved around a false flag, he had the FSB bomb an apartment complex and kill a score of people, only to blame Chechens after the first Chechen war, to use as a rally round the flag power grab and justify the second Chechen war. The Russians LOVED him for murdering the fuck out of Chechens.
And it was all a distant memory now, but the Ukraine invasion was started by a series of pathetic false flags. including but not limited to
*to be clear Im talking about the incidents that occured in late January and early Feb 2022, while the Russians were building up military forces and when they "recognized" the separatist states and formally moved their military into Ukraine, about a week before the shooting started, all of this was going on
Russia has always been a gong-show of shitty and pathetic theatre and drama for the cameras/newspapers*
