Makarov at the time was the world's number 1 most wanted terrorists, both for attacks against USA and against russia. He was a Russian equivalent of Osama Bin Laden. And he perpetrated the attack with no mask or anything concealing his infamous face.DarkSoldier84 said:
Also why would they even suspect Allen was American, remember he was in DEEP cover as a Russian terrorists, with appropriate tattoos and an entire identity. How could anyone link that body to an American soldier, it makes no sense, how could Russia even make this argument to the world, what would make them even think that? America has no motivation for this and doesn't even follow their MO, no a rag tag terrorist attack, it would be something to do with air-power like shooting down a plane.
And wouldn't it be REALLY god damn suspicious that the one terrorist in the group who was not shooting is found shot in the head in a basement and no security forces can say they shot him down there?
Also there were several other of Makarov's terrorist confederates killed by the FSB and their bodies left behind, now how are they to claim this terrorist atrocity was America's fault when apparently they are working with their most sworn enemy; the ultra-nationalist terrorists.
So lets summarise this attack as it appears:
-Infamous terrorist Makarov is seen with two other known Russian Terrorists and a 4th person previously unknown but linked to terrorist organisations, doesn't shoot anyone.
-They us Belgian-made machine guns available on the open market
-two bodies are recovered on the runway, FSB agents record gunning them down and later forensic examinations confirms their identity as Russian Terrorists
-Final body of the 4th unknown person is found in an adjacent building, he is found shot in the head and no security personnel record shooting him, it is apparent the Terrorists shot him. Bears a striking resemblance to a file photo of a US Army Ranger infantryman, even though there is nothing else linking them together.
-CCTV analysis reveals Makarov escaped in an Ambulance.
Conclusion: obviously this was an American plot, Russia figures this out within a few days recklessly tries to invade America who is armed with thousands of nuclear weapons.
It also makes no sense how Shepard could have orchestrated this? Makarov would never have trusted him. Also Deep Cover in foreign terrorist cells is a CIA operation, completely out of the hands of a Military officer of any rank, Shepard would have to kill the entire CIA.
BTW why did Shepard even have to kill Roach? He knew NOTHING, in fact no one knew anything or had reason to suspect anything before Shepard started arbitrarily trying to kill them all. And when Shepard tried to kill Price how in the hell did Price know he was a traitor? Remember, Price is fresh out of a Russian Goulag when he busts into a Russian Sub and launches a nuke to detonate over USA. That is incredibly reckless, it also went directly against Shepard's orders, logically Price would assume Shepard had thought he was out of control and had to be reigned in.
Shepard may have admitted guilt but I don't even see how he is responsible, yes he sent Allen on deep cover operation (somehow bypassing the CIA) but how does that make him the mastermind?
Also, what orders was Allen given? Why would he actually end up IN THE LIFT loading up with guns and not try to sabotage the terrorist attack? Would he actually accept orders from Shepard to say "If Makarov starts killing civilians, just go along with it... don't worry i will eventually tell you why I sent you on this mission"
Also WHY an White American Army infantryman who clearly has no Russian background for a deep cover operation? Usually they find an American who has at least spent SOME of their life in Russia, such as a recent emigrant, or some MASTER of disguise. Either way, he has to learn to speak russian FLAWLESSLY and all the complexities of russian culture and also a background in how long? That takes YEARS and only a tiny fraction of people are even cut out for that. You can't just turn up and put on a funny accent.
