So…. what are they going to do about it? Fighting sheep herders might be easier than battling an actually modern and effective army, but the results were catastrophic last time they invaded Afghanistan.

He had to or he’d risk reprisals from Islamic terrorists.

Considering the ISIS continue to actively making threat of attacking Russia, it would have been difficult to create a “false flag” that Ukraine was the behind it. Now Russia will need to divert MAJOR resources to anti-terrorism, because if ISIS is able to do another attack, it would be extremely difficult to explained.
Keep in mind the police arrived in force only 90min after the attack, which considering it was only 18Km from the Kremlin, is quite telling on how unprepared fast responders were; also the terrorist drove for 4h on major highway without being intercepted.
The going to the Ukraine frontier is BS to try saving the face. Seriously, there was no escape plan, the terrorist were likely surprise they could get out of Moscow in a car without being intercepted. Btw, Belarus frontier was also very close and would have been easier to cross then the Ukraine frontier.
