      Yes - but why did he let it happen? I’m thinking more that Putin willfully neglected any action against it because (reason). Maybe he wants to mobilise more and wants people to feel like they’re under attack?

        I don’t know, why did Bush let 9/11 happen? This is wild speculation one day after the attack with practically no reliable information to work with. The English speaking world has decided that Putin is a cartoon villian or the new Hitler, so sinister conspiracy theories abound.

          Putin is a real villain, and it’s not far fetched. I don’t know what 9/11 has to do with this though

                It’s relevant to your conspiracy theorizing. Maybe analogies aren’t for everyone.

                  No, it isn’t. We know they were informed well on in time before, and now we can wonder why they didn’t act on it, and why Putin wants to blame Ukraine for it.
