WORLD SHOCK AT COLD-BLOODED KID KILLINGS
New York Post ^ | 9/04/04 | Post Wire Services

September 4, 2004 -- Tragic, despicable, inhumane, cowardly, barbaric, evil and astonishing — the deaths of a hundred or more people including children in a siege at a Russian school sparked strong words for the hostage-takers from world leaders. "This is yet another grim reminder of the lengths to which terrorists will go to threaten the civilized world," President Bush told a campaign rally in Wisconsin yesterday.

British Prime Minister Tony Blair wrote to Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying, "It is hard to express my revulsion at the inhumanity of terrorists prepared to put children and their parents through such suffering."

World leaders focused on support and solidarity for Russia.

"Killing of these innocent people is an evil, despicable act of barbarism. The fact that many of them appear to have been young children murdered in cold blood is simply horrible," said the president of the European Commission, Romano Prodi.

A commission statement said it "regrets that the hostage crisis could not be solved peacefully, but the blame cannot be put on anyone else but those who committed this heinous crime."

Chief Vatican spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls said news of the tragedy was received with sadness at the Vatican.

"but the blame cannot be put on anyone else but those who committed this heinous crime."

The blame can and must be put on the entire world of Islam.

I would suggest that the "moderate Muslims" clean house ---- before we are forced by self preservation to destroy the house.



if they ever were going to do any serious house cleaning, it would have already been started in gigantically apparent proportions.

Thus far the USA and a coalition of the willing have had to do the trash disposal. When the muzzies start beheading terrorists in the center of their mosques and placing them on pikes, WE will believe they are actually taking out the trash on their own.

They have not.
So the job of sorting them all out, may in fact become God's perview only.

until the UMMAH rises up to kill the terrorists it supports with it's prayers, book of worship, finanaical aid and comfort... the UMMAH in it's entirety IS responsible.

their shock and dismay at this act, is only their fear that IVAN is going to fry mecca and medina... and level chechnya.

too little. too late.
