Keep this for your records...I'm just sorry I didn't copy/paste the whole article (it's somewhat harder to find now). Although this theory came up quite often when it happened, the AP didn't mention it until now.

KGB SUCCESSOR IMPLICATED IN MOSCOW BOMBINGS

MOSCOW -- A former Russian security agent offered evidence Thursday meant to support his claim that the KGB's successor, not Islamic militants, engineered a series of deadly bombings that thrust Russia into a new war in Chechnya in 1999.

In a video link with Britain, where he fled two years ago, Alexander Litvinenko said he received the evidence in a statement from Achimez Gochiyayev, who Russia claims was paid $500,000 by a rebel warlord to organize two apartment-building bombings in Moscow...

A few weeks after the last of four apartment-building explosions in September 1999 - two in Moscow and two in southern Russia - President Boris Yeltsin and his prime minister, former KGB agent Vladimir Putin, sent Russian troops into Chechnya. Russian officials blamed the blasts on Chechen rebels, though rebel leaders denied involvement and suggested the security service organized them to justify the military campaign...

The link doesn't work, and this is valuable news.

As-salaamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah,

Yes, this is old news for most of us. But as some of us live in the U.S. (i.e., the soon to be turned into another fascist state), information like this, although buried but accessible for those who search for it, is not likely to appear on the daily news (and who knows how long it will be accessible; this article isn't). In other words, a lot of Americans feel that the Russian govt was justified (or didn't care since they didn't receive any other information that fell into their lap, like the initial news about it) in viciously going after the Chechnians/Dagestanis, apparently because of the bomb that was planted by the so-called "Muslim separatists/terrorists."
Although other sources (mostly non-US) had already discussed this theory at length, the US is only inching it's way towards that realization (notice, this article does not directly implicate the KGB or Putin).

The reason I posted this was because the same type of information will reappear regarding other events (ie, govt sacrifice made to look like justification to go after an old enemy), insha'Allah.  Sooner or later. Because as most of us realize, all is not as it appears.
