Bush is calling them terrorists. That's a start. Now if he could only utter the 'I' word.

WARNING SOME ARE GRAPHIC.
Bodies of murdered school children.
The terrorists are NOT human, to have done this.
"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.
In the meantime:
"European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana on Friday criticized Israeli threats against Syria following the Be'er Sheva suicide bombings. "

I guess the EU wants to extend sympathy, but it doesn't want to anyone actually go after the terrorists.
I'm not shocked. Sad. Angry. Prayerful.
But not shocked. And I won't be shoked when it happens here.
I WILL be shocked when we take strong action against these islamofacists, illegal immigrants, etc.
How does one conduct ethnic cleansing --- that destroys only the lunatics among the Muslims?
It may not be possible...
I would suggest that the "moderate Muslims" clean house ---- before we are forced by self preservation to destroy the house.
Semper Fi
I'm more than stunned,I'm mortified.
Kat: I just went over to DU to see what they were saying about this. There's not a post, an article, a mention that I could find.
Don't worry--Susan Estrich is coming to save the day.
Why should the world be shocked? That stellar statesman, Yassar Arafat rose to power and worldwide acclaim by blowing up Israeli School buses. Children's body parts all over the place.
Yet he goes on to honor, respect, a priority for Presidents and wins a Nobel Peace Prize. What is wrong with this picture?
One word wasn't used: unacceptable. Let me be the first to propose the un-politically correct solution to the most vexing problem facing the civilized world today, islamic terror. I propose the following: Excommunicate islam from the world's recognised religions. Period. Make the worship of islam or possession of the koran punishable by death. Destroy all vestiges of the killer cult, force conversion to other faiths, level their places of worship, and destroy those who defy. Some might find this drastic. It appears that way on the surface. Smacks of the nazi holocaust or something, but if you analyze it, it is the quickest, shortest, most straightforward route to moving into a peaceful 21'st century where minds aren't poisoned by the bedouin death-cult. Give Iran 48 hours to start dismantling their nuclear facilities or send them to hell at a million degrees. In fifty years we can make islam a thing only mentioned in history books like zoroastrianism.
It is not long past time for the world, and that means the world's governments to finally face facts.
The blame for what just happened in Russia, and for all the preceeding horrors of the WTC (both attacks), Nairobi, Khobar Towers, the Cole, Bali, and on, must be laid squarely at the feet of the Arabic states and the Muslim preachers of hate that inhabit them. The reluctance in these lands to silence these slimy purveyors of hate has been obvious for too long.
It has now become incumbent on us all civilized peoples to demand that these Mullahs, Imams, Shiekhs, and other assorted "nutbags of esteem" in their benighted lands are quieted forever.
It is now time for Muslims worldwide to understand that the desisre of the West to see Islam survive cannot be greater than their own. If the death-wish now so manifest in the Islamic world is not curbed by the Islamic world, it will not be incumbent on us, their victims, to insure a sweet outcome on their behalf. We would rather help them on their way.
It is time to bring the hammer down, people, and in so doing make Muslims everywhere fear us more than they fear the sociopathic death worshippers in their midst. Maybe then they will act.
It would be preferable that they act first of their own volition out of a sense of morality or even out of a desire to survive, but I fear that they secretly love and admire these murderers of children, and pray for their souls and for theri success.
If so, they are as craven as the murderers themselves.
Perhaps they think that in the coming war, they will prevail. They are wrong. When this war comes, we will not be able to wage war with the delicacy that we have shown in Iraq. It is up to the Musmlims now, whether they wish to live as civilized human beings, or die as pigs.
If anyone thinks that the solution proposed in #34 is way overboard, try going through Singapore customs with a roach in your pocket.
Gee really?
"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.
