''If that all proves to be correct it's difficult not to assume it was another 'state' organised massacre designed to bolster Putin's power to wage war.''
it's more difficult to think that Putin needs to 'bolster' his power to wage war
simply - he doesn't - not at all
all thoughts along the line of that 'putin organised it' --------- are merely the ravings of conspiracy nuts
putin needs no bolstering at all
but, he will take any chance to lay blame at the foot of his enemies - rightly or wrongly
