It’s been more than 6 hours since the first news of the terrorist attack in Moscow. A branch of ISIS has claimed responsibility, and U.S. officials reportedly corroborate it. Meanwhile, the Russian state has said nothing about who’s responsible. Putin remains stone-cold silent.It’s been more than 6 hours since the first news of the terrorist attack in Moscow.

Just me or does the silence seem to indicate it's real? Is it really the case that their false flag ops usually have a scripted response reasonably quickly? Could just be confirmation bias at work for me.
