Russian FSB? Of course they can't have anty putin / pro Ukraine "extremists"....

I'm 100% against the Kremlin's barbaric, genocidal war in Ukraine, but terrorism against Russian civilians won't help anything.

Yes you are right ofc, it's immoral, but I'm not sure it won't have a positive effect, especially against putin whos "election" is coming up.

Best case would be lots of explosions , lots of stuff damages and no one hurt I guess.

~~Why would anti Putin or pro Ukraine individuals conduct an attack on a US embassy in Moscow? That’s nonsensical.~~

Edit: yeah, my mistake

The embassy is warning citizens of potential attacks on large gatherings, not attacks on the embassy.
