Here, and this was the search result I came up with in less than 3 minutes. If you want more/country feel free to google it, as there are plenty more, or if you are lazy give me a random terrorist event and I will search it for you. Pretty much every major country last year in the west was mired in massive scale protests often directly against their way leaders handled certain sittuations (see germany, france and currently lets not forget the US). I hate it when people start demonizing a country just because reasons and mainstream media provoked hysteria.

Again, I dont want to derail the thread with politics, and RIP all people who now rest in those metal graves.

Ok, so if I think its a bit suspicious that it happened just after a big demonstration, I am now deomnizing the entire country because of the media? This is why it will always be a one sided debate. Maybe stop attacking people who might have a different opinion than you? Again Im not saying that anything is set in stone, but Im not gonna just say "Hope the guy who did this goes to jail for a million years" and be done with it. Of course its a sad situation and I feel for the families of the victims, but stop saying I have some sort of agenda for thinking differently than you.

I find your line of thought a bit strange. Instead of thinking or saying "Hope the guy who did goes to jail for a million years", you jump to "Just a few days after one of the biggest demonstrations against the government there. Interesting..." which implies that Russia killed it's own people. I'm all for entertaining different opinions or idea but that is a bit far fetched. There's been a "demonstrations" and terrorist attacks all over the west. I doubt there's any connection to the two In any western country. "they seemed to be very quick to call it a terrorist attack" In general, any sensible person will see a bombing that targets civilians as a terriorist attack because...
