One tiny but very important detail is that there is no standing obligation to warn, if that could compromise the source of the information. This is the edge that the situation is balanced
Simon this has to be my favorite place to hear about current events. All your channels and videos are so high quality and well put together. Thanks for all your hard work man! 👍🏼
Love these videos, definitely one of my new favorite channels. I dont know if im tripping, but it sounds like he adds an extra "is" on Metástasis every time?
Thanks you for doing this. I'm from Ecuador and even the media is corrupted so listening to this was refreshing. Please talk about the breaking of diplomatic ties between Mexico and Ecuador
I love how the name of one of the two boys that saved people that night is Islam. It’s quite ironic that a religious militant group’s effect is lessened/thwarted by a boy bearing the name of the religion they do violent acts in the name of.
More ironic is that the Russians failed to respond to intelligence that the Americans gave them in advance so the Russians just repeated the same failure that the Americans did back in 2013 regarding the Boston marathon A decade later and the same mistakes Still I think *"duty to warn"* is a great policy everyone suffers from these acts, from Saudi Arabia to Nigeria, to France, and now Russia And trying to just maintain a small bit of civility for your enemy is a moral stance even I can get behind
I find it more ironic that the US warned them and they ignored it And then double ironic that it happened in reverse with Russia warning the US in 2013 regarding Boston
@@sexonlithium I agree, but I do like the policy of duty to warn And it's one I agree with, even if the nation is an adversary and hostile towards the US trying to warn them to prevent things like this on their civilian population is a measure of civility I respect
We seldom hear about ISIS nowadays, so it's a surprise to see them claim responsibility for the attack. What was even more surprising to me was how Lukashenko went against Putain's claims of Ukraine being responsible saying that the attackers would have entered Belarus if they hadn't sealed their border after the attack. It's not often one of Putain's lapdogs goes against him
What? ISIS is all over the place. Just because our media has stopped reporting on them, since they are a shell of their former self, is a whole other thing.
Isis K are a pretty different entity to what we saw with ISIL a few years ago. They have similar manifesto's but take aim at different targets and for a bit different reasons. They are deemed more intelligent in how they go about things and possibly more dangerous!! Simon did a pretty good explanation of them a while back. Scary shit. Those 4 seemed pretty well trained in attacking people, but im not sure they were planning on what happens when they got caught!! Surely most would prefer to shoot themselves instead of falling into Russian hands?!! (im not condoning any of it... just marvel at human psychology !!)
@@freddiemercury2075It makes you wonder. The fact that Putin basically let them off the hook publicly by not responding to the group directly so he could make the most ridiculous accusation of blaming Ukraine and the US shows how much he truly thinks of his people and their intelligence.
This is my favorite Simon Whistler channel along with Casual Criminalist & Decode the Unknown. Also, Sideproject and so on... basically all of his channels!
Putin: Who could have done this? ISIS: We did this! Putin: We won't stop until we find out who did this! ISIS: *Releases videos, documents step by step how they did this* See, we did this! Putin: Finally we've found out who did this.. Ukraine!

@sexytopramen not everyone has a phone, not everyone has that phone, samsung phones do it too though if that helps anyone. Now what I'd love is if auto generated subtitles could be auto translated at the same time.

As a former Air Force Intel Officer, it is due to the volume of intelligence received. Threats largely don’t end up materializing even from highly credible sources. In the case of Russia, more actionable intelligence may be withheld due to the potential of revealing collection capabilities to adversary.
@@yourwifesboyfriend6081 Thanks, that makes perfect sense. I'm also thinking the general population doesn't likely hear about all the intelligence that is acted on. It just sucks seeing innocent people killed.
Russia isn't saying Ukraine ordered it. Only that they aided and funded or knew it was being supplied from Ukraine and did nothing. Since you know, actual chechen jihadists fight for Ukraine.

Organized? This was a sham.. Just look at their movements. Zero military training, even compared to "regular" ISIS fighters. Same car in and out. Took their sweet time, walked around aimlessly etc etc. All didn't even have weapons. This was clearly a "you use what you have" operation by ISIS.

@@patrickmunneke8348 Wouldn't he REALLY want to show it then? Seems like a very easy way to say "Russian bad, look at them target this civilian infrastructure."
What about the pictures of the fsb agents being shown in the concert before the attacks. How about videos of the police force standing by nearby for an hour
People were saying the usa was involved because they gave the heads up too russia right before it happened and I've never heard heard a dumber arguement
It’s honestly amazing how desperate Putin is to paint Ukraine as the villains, even when literal terrorists are on his doorstep claiming responsibility for the terrorist attack they just committed, he is still more focused on trying to pin the blame on Ukraine rather than protecting his people from a legitimate threat.
PSA: I just had to attempt to view this video over a dozen times because YT kept putting up the age restriction warning and after accepting they kicked me to another video, ironically it was the one on the firebombing of Japan which then automatically kicked me to a video on Ukraine. The entire purpose of this platform is to let us watch videos and yet it seems hell bent on blocking and redirecting me from things I actually choose to watch.
The fact that the west still warned Russia, their adversary, of an impending terror attack speaks volume of which side cares about innocent lives more. Another L for the Russian government while the west got to say "we told you so.". May the victims caused by their government's ignorance still find peace.
Food for thought You think that maybe US officials made a deal not with ISIS directly but with some other group, maybe the Taliban. Had them make their own deal with ISIS behind their deal with usa
No, I don't think US officials made any kind of deal. Your specific deal proposed deal is highly unlikely because the Taliban and ISIS despise one another.
Honestly these videos are so helpful for keeping up with the news, I always find it easier to breakdown and understand the info then when reading it.
