Not much is known yet, except it was a home-made device with many small iron particles meant to cause maximum harm.

What is the matter with people anymore?

It would appear that no one has died in this event, hopefully all victims will recover.

Everyone's hoping it's in the name of Islam so the narrative here can continue...

The narrative will continue whether this particular one was 'in the name of Islam' or not....don't worry, the Muslims will see to that.

The only "ignorant agenda" is on the part of the fcuktard left that makes up every every excuse - such as the "No True Scotsman" fallacy you make above - because they cannot abide the TRUTH.

I'd imagine that those hoping for a particular narrative, could only be;

A) Decent muslims hoping to avoid further bad press.

or

B) The loony left requiring a statistical hiccup so they can defend Islam, for whatever perverse reason that may be.

Anyone assuming its Islamic, has good reason given what's been going on around the globe and in St Pete itself. Only a fool blinded by virtue signalling would think anything else. One thing we can guarantee is that Russia wont cover it up in their media, like we do at home.

It was only days ago, when some arsehole drove a car through xmas shoppers in Australia. Within minutes we were being told it had nothing to do with terrorism and the individual had mental health problems. We then learned the blokes were from Afghanistan and the story was laid to rest. The sheer number of similar attacks around the world over the past couple years alone is horrific and nearly every main western country suffered. Every so often a story pops up about a terrorist attack and even I'm like - Oh I forgot about that one! I'm of the opinion that its by design.

But yea.....lets just put it down to mental health and pretend this will all clear up by sticking our heads in the sand. In fact if we increase mass immigration from predominantly Islamic countries, dilute our values, import 3rd world culture and apologise, then maybe this will all sort itself out?

Back to the StP attack, I hear there's long odds on the Church of Scotland if anybody likes a long punt?  :-X

From what I've read today it's been called a terrorist attack by  Putin.
There's also video footage of the suspect.
