The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation released the bizarre photos Monday and announced that police had arrested six neo-Nazis plotting to kill Russian TV Host Vladimir Solovyov in Moscow. The Russian federal police (FSB) claimed to recover an improvised explosive device, eight improvised incendiary devices of the Molotov cocktail type, six PM pistols, a sawn-off hunting rifle, an RGD-5 grenade, more than a thousand cartridges of various calibers, drugs, [and] fake Ukrainian passports from the would-be assassins, as well as nationalist literature and paraphernalia. The plot to kill him with a car bomb, according to the FSB, was supposedly cooked up in coordination with the Ukrainian security services. Photos released from the apparent scene of the arrest, however, gave the impression of a poorly staged false-flag. One photo shows a crisp red t-shirt with a swastika on it, inexplicably laid out next to three copies of the video game The Sims 3. Who knew they were so into The Sims 3? BBC journalist Francis Scarr asked dryly on twitter. Somebody from the top most likely wrote: 3 (three SIM cards), and some genius obeyed, someone responded. Eliot Higgins, the founder of investigative research group Bellingcat which has focused in recent years on Russian intelligence and military operations agreed. I genuinely believe this is a dumb FSB officer being told to get 3 SIMs, he tweeted. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/0/9/3/AAd-UUAADK51.jpg --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 <cite>Lebronwon posted [p:964566703] in Russia app...
