What is unreported is the fact that these are islamofacists. On all the media all you hear is Chechen Rebels, Chechen Seperatists, but you never hear the word "islam".

Fox News was the first to say that half of the terrorists were Arabs!!!

Don't let the liberal media get away with this. The terrorists are MUSLIMS!!!Why is this issue of being ignored by the media? This event is extremely serious in the wide scheme of things. This is a terrorist act where hundreds of children were slaughtered by members of the religion of peace. Instead of calling it like it is the media calls them seperatists like they are revolutionary war fighters.

What world are we living in?

Found this to support the argument (BBC Q&A during theatre disaster)
Q: Do the rebels have links with al-Qaeda?

A: It seems quite likely.

It has been known for years that Muslim volunteers have travelled to Chechnya to join the fight, reportedly after attending training camps in Afghanistan or Pakistan.

In October 2002 a man suspected of helping to carry out the 11 September attack told a German court that the alleged leader of the hijackers, Mohammed Atta, had wanted to fight in Chechnya.

One of the main field commanders, until his death in April at the hands of Russian forces, was an Arab called Khattab - a veteran of the Afghan conflict with the USSR.

He is alleged to have been in occasional telephone contact with Osama Bin Laden.

Intercepted telephone calls also led US officials to allege earlier this year that fighters in the Pankisi Gorge were in contact with al-Qaeda

What's this about the terrorists being Muslim? Next thing you'll be trying to sell is that Kerry served in Viet Nam. I'll never fall for it.

Fox news was trying to make the point that not all of the terrorists were chechnyan muslims but that some were imported terrorists of the arab muslim type.

They weren't trying to hide anything.
