IMHO, the FBI does not understand the phenomenon of school and mass shootings. These are not just the individual, sporadic, and spontaneous acts. These are the Russian “Active Measures Operations”, in response to Beslan school massacre which was blamed on the West, and which Putin swore to revenge in his pledge to victims’ mothers. These operations run for 20 years now. The frequency and viciousness of these attacks correlate with the degree of tensions in the US – Russia relations. The ironic and hateful messages of each occurrence are often conveyed by the Telling Names which are the tools of the “secret” and yet open and public communications. The mass recruitment on line, especially in video games related forums plays a significant role. The general message is: “we can weaponize practically anyone with our methods and technics”. In reality, the most vulnerable, due to various reasons, are zombified and weaponized. These operations are performed for the purposes of “punishment”, retaliation, and intimidation of the American Public.
The correct reconceptualization and the deeper understanding of these incidents might have the greater chance of successful intervention.
Also, and importantly, Trump should say to Putin, in no uncertain terms: “This madness has to stop!”
The exact mechanisms of recruitment, conversion, and weaponization have to be carefully investigated.
The FBI has to dive deeper for answers, just like in everything else. Superficiality and the tunnel vision are general obstacles related to the FBI mentality. The investigations, when done properly, is the highly intellectual field. Kash Patel wants to take out the Intelligence Division out of the FBI completely, as he said. And to put it where? These issues are very important, and they deserve the public discussion.
