Were there really rapes going on? I've read on some other sites that this did not happen.

In terrorism, as in crime, there are no accidents.

"Conclusion: AP harbors terrorists and is a terrorist organization."

Time to take out the AP!

"Accidental"?

Premature, probably. The slaughtering of innocents typically is. Premature according to the plans of those who think that they have control over the timing of events.

I don't think Satan wanted Jesus crucified quite so hastily...so prophetically.

I also don't think Putin was allowed the opportunity to resolve this in a manner which would strenthen his hand, and weaken the US stand against such terrorism.

In this story, militants at AP used the word "Islam" or "Islamic terrorist" zero (0) times, and "militant" eight (8) times in it's place.

In fairness, the term "terror(-ist/-ism)" appears ten (10) times in the story.

But, I agree; if these b*st*rds are motivated by their religion -- is there any doubt? -- it MUST be reported. This is where the "political correctness" b*llsh*t has brought us.

"Later that day, he detonated the explosives worn by two female attackers, killing them, to enforce the lesson, Ustinov said."

what a miserable bastard. Of course they deserved it. How stupid do you have to be to wire yourself with explosives and give someone else the trigger?

AP still refusing to call terrorists, "terrorists"; instead opting for the more affectionate "militants."

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel ping list.

WARNING: This is a high volume ping list

If anything, that could partly explain the chaotic conditions under which the Russian troops were engaged to try to secure the school. Frankly, when I read that they had a TANK crew firing at the school...

Janet Reno was advising them?

Attack the terrorists "all over the world" eh?

So, now we can expect Russian help in Iraq?

We can assume the Russians will quit helping the Iranians build a nuclear bomb?

The Russians will quit sending their latest weapons to Syria?

The Russians will get serious about helping us pressure North Korea to disarm its nukes?

(I'm not holding my breath)

Since they shouted "allah akbar" before they slaughtered some of the kids, it's clear they were motivated by their religion --- and the mainstream media won't even report about that. They don't even switch "allah" to "God" and report they shouted "God akbar". It's clear the media has an agenda here and it's not the truth.

One attacker in camouflage and a black hood stood amid the hostages with a boot on what NTV said was a book rigged with a detonator.

A book rigged with a detonator doesn't look much like an accident no matter how much the mainstream media chooses to twist this.

I don't doubt it. But, out of curiosity, what's your source (since the media won't report it)?

I read it on here (FR) somewhere --- but I don't remember which thread it was on. It was a news source but maybe foreign.
