MOSCOW - President Vladimir Putin has ordered Russian special services to try to find and eliminate the killers of four Russian hostages in Iraq, news agencies reported Wednesday.
"The president has ordered the special forces to take all necessary measures to find and destroy the criminals who killed Russian diplomats in Iraq," news agencies cited the Kremlin press service as saying.
;-) The Russians are not ones to pussy-foot around when their people are killed. Feelings be damned. We should be a lot more like that.
PUTIN '08!...........
I totally agree.
ROFLMAO!!
"Rootin' Tootin' Vladimir Putin!"
We should have done the same thing to the animals who took our embassy in Iran back in 1980. Instead, now we have one as President of Iran.
I guess it's never to late!
A long-range rifle and a frame-up of one of his cabinet members would do quite nicely.
Odd that the country that invented political correctness and the fake and obsequious answer would be so direct about revenge and reality.
At least they understand that the only thing the Islamofascists understand is a good hard whack or death. No attempt at a "dialog".
MOSCOW - President Valdimir Putin has ordered Russian special services to hunt down the killers of four Russian hostages in Iraq, news agencies reported Wednesday. "The president has ordered the special forces to take all necessary measures to find and destroy the criminals who killed Russian diplomats in Iraq," news agencies said, citing the Kremlin press service.
The order follows Monday's confirmation by the Foreign Ministry that four Russians working at the embassy in Iraq had been killed; they were seized in early .
Earlier Wednesday, the lower house of the Russian parliament passed a statement decrying the murders and saying that "occupying" countries are losing control in Iraq.
Russia has strongly opposed the U.S.-led military campaign in Iraq.
I have an acquaintance who had knowledge--from the Russian side--of the war in Afghanaistan when the Soviets
The Muslims would kdnap sopldiers and bake them alive, then send the body to the Russians.
Russians have LONG memories.
Misleading headline. Ordering "all necessary measures to find and destroy the criminals" is hardly ordering a "probe". Ordering "probes" is what lily-livered U.S. politicians do when they don't really intend to accomplish anything but score some political points.
I doubt the Russians will probe anything. They probably already have the terrorists in their sights!
The Russians/Soviets have always know how to deal with this vermin. In the 80's, when there was a rash of Kindappings in Lebanon, the Terrorists made the Mistake of Kidnapping some Soviet personnel.
The Negotiation consisted of the members of a Soviet intelligence organization dumping the bodies of other terrorist on their HQ Doorstep. The bodies were "Disfigured" so to speak. While the Kidnappings continued for the US, the Soviets were never touched again
Yeah, Vlady - kick Moslem butt, baby, and show us how it's done. Just like you did in Afghanistan.
If you're nice, maybe we'll let some Navy SEALs hold your hand.
If we did it the world would demand our soldiers be brought up on murder charges, Bush on War Crimes and Rumsfeld shot...Oh wait they're demanding that now...
I agree with you they did a terrible job in Afghanistan. And have the nerve to talk about us and our job being done in Iraq. But I think they will target certain individuals that they have their sights on for this.
