I doubted whether or not it would be possible, but Russia has managed to trace the funding to at least one of these terrorists – back to the Ukraine.
The FSB is the world’s premiere intelligence and safety agency, which is why these attacks are not happening all the time. They didn’t even lock down Moscow after the attack. Instead, they did massive raids and deportations of Moslems, quietly, while the people remained free to go about in safety without the oppressive atmosphere of soldiers everywhere.

The suspects in last week’s Moscow terrorist attack were linked to Ukrainian nationalists, the Russian Investigative Committee stated on Thursday, citing preliminary findings. The perpetrators had received “significant sums of money” from Ukraine, the law enforcement agency said.
Investigators have obtained “substantiated evidence” that the suspected assailants received funding from Ukraine in the form of cryptocurrency, which was then used to prepare the terrorist attack, the statement read.
Yikes.
Should have used Monero, hohols! Now you’re nailed to the wall!
Law enforcement officers have also identified and detained another suspect who was allegedly involved in financing the attack, the Investigative Committee said, without identifying the individual.
…
The four suspected perpetrators had previously been identified as radical Islamists, recruited through an online chat apparently operated by the Afghanistan-based offshoot of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS). However, the investigators said at that time that, despite the group’s claim of responsibility for the terrorist act, another party, such as a Ukrainian intelligence agency, may have been involved in the plot.
There was already enough evidence to convict the Ukraine based on the fact that they were driving to the Ukraine and the Ukraine had prepared them an opening at the border. I really didn’t expect them to be able to trace the money to a source. But here you have it.
The Jewnited Snakes is simply whining.

Russia has hit back after a senior White House official accused it of peddling “manure” by claiming that Ukraine may be linked to last week’s terrorist attack near Moscow.
Moscow believes the attack may have been masterminded by Ukrainian special services who used a group of radical Islamists to carry it out. Washington has urged the world to accept the claim of responsibility by ISIS-K, an Afghanistan-based offshoot of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS).
At a press briefing on Thursday, White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby called the Russian skepticism “nonsense and propaganda.”
He added that it reminds him of his uncle, a small farm owner in Florida. “He used to say that the best manure salesmen often carried their samples in their mouths,” Kirby said. “Russian officials seem to be pretty good manure salesmen.”
“Manure salesmen” with mouths full of shit? What a total faggot. His uncle didn’t used to say that. No one has ever said that before. And it sucks.
Maybe if your jokes were funnier, people would be more apt to believe your lies?
Here’s what would have been better: “More horseshit from Ivan’s malfunctioning collectivized horseshit factory.”
The lady doth protest way too much!

The US and the EU have been obsessive in insisting on Ukraine’s innocence in the Crocus City Hall terrorist attack, to the point that such behavior is suspicious, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview published on Friday.
The Islamic State Khorasan (ISIS-K) terrorist group has claimed responsibility for last Friday’s attack just outside Moscow, in which 143 people were killed and over 200 injured. Washington and Brussels immediately declared that ISIS-K was the sole culprit and that no evidence whatsoever pointed to Kiev.
“The West is actively trying to convince everyone that this is the work of ISIS and there is no longer any need to suspect anyone, especially Ukraine,” Lavrov told Izvestiya. “They keep insisting that Kiev is not to blame, to the point where it’s becoming obsessive.”
…
“Not just publicly, but they also say in contacts through our diplomatic missions: ‘There is no need to suspect Ukraine,’ but they never explain why,” he added. “From the standpoint of sound logic, answering the question ‘who benefits,’ we can’t exclude Ukraine.”
WHO BENEFITS???
Of course, it doesn’t matter what Kirby or any of these other deranged freaks says, because Russia will act to take vengeance on the perpetrators. In fact, we may see a brutal escalation of the war. Certainly, the people of Russia are ready for it, after this most egregious event.
In other Moscow attack news, the Russian media is reporting that the assailants tested positive for “a drug that removes fear” (they’re referring to Captagon, which is basically Arabian amphetamine).
RT:
Traces of a drug that suppresses fear have reportedly been found in blood samples taken from the four suspects in last week’s terrorist attack at a Russian concert hall.
The claim came on Thursday from the online news outlet Baza, which cited an anonymous source who purportedly has insider information about the ongoing investigation into the Crocus City Hall massacre.
Four suspects were apprehended hours after the rampage that claimed over 140 lives. All of them had a psychotropic substance in their blood that “alters perception of reality,” Baza claimed. It is understood that they took the unnamed drug before the gun and arson attack.
Amphetamines have been used by soldiers and killers since they were invented, so it’s not necessarily big news these guys were on them, other than that because it demonstrates further the type of operation this was. Maybe it wasn’t Captagon, and was some Ukrainian variant. Or maybe the Ukrainians are using Captagon – they definitely have extensive links to ISIS and other Islamic terror groups.
Anyway, it goes to show that this was a professional operation, planned by someone who knew how to do terrorism.
Of course, we’ve already got the money link, so the investigation is about ready to come to a close, and people are about to start being severely punished for this atrocity.
