Russia has confirmed the death of Andrei Karlov.

The video has him screaming Allah akbar. What I find odd is he was alive that long to give a diatribe. I would have thought, in Turkey, with a Russian diplomat, he would have been killed almost instantly.

Yeah Russia isn't dumb by any measure, if this was CIA they're pretty sad agents.
Seems more like this was emotionally charged and was someone seizing the moment in a sense.

Obviously had funding

No , the reports I've seen say he chose not to have security.

CNN apparently has a partial translation of some what said: "Do not forget Syria" "Do not forget Aleppo"
