Russia’s FSB has foiled a terror attack in Moscow as they managed to kill two and detain one of the militants planning it, the National Anti-Terrorism Committee said.

The three men are “Russian citizens, arrived from Afghani-Pakistani region, where they have been trained,” the committee said. All three are said to practice Islam.

Some reports suggest that the militants underwent training in Pakistan's Northern Waziristan, however, it is unknown which group they belong to. According to Russian special services, Waziristan is a hotbed of Taliban extremism.

"There are also training camps for terrorists who come from all over the world. The US authorities have repeatedly appealed to the government of Pakistan with a proposal to hold an operation to eliminate militants, Pakistan, however, has been refusing," Interfax quoted its source from intelligence service as saying.

As FSB forces approached the house in a small town in the Moscow region and demanded the suspected militants to surrender, the men opened fire in response.

In the exchange of fire two of them were killed and one detained.

So,,, over there if they become awaare of terrorists, they find and shoot them in their hideout before they can attack?
How quaint, we ask them, “say,,are you a terrorist?”. If the promise they aren’t, we give them welfare, citizenship, and first lady visits. And we burn whatever informant let us know about them.

Good work by the good guys. There is no telling how many innocent people they saved by catching those guys before they struck.

Yes. Putin is not a nice man, but I have to admire this approach.
