Vladimir Putin has vowed to pursue terrorists to “total annihilation”, in his first public comments since the Volgograd suicide bombings. In his traditional New Year's Eve address, which was broadcast at midnight from the Far Eastern city of Khabarovsk, (5pm in Moscow), he praised Russia’s unity in the face of both terrorism and natural disasters and promised to continue an unrelenting fight against the bombers. “In the past year we have faced problems and serious challenges including the inhuman terror attacks in Volgograd and unprecedented disasters in the Far East,” he said. “Dear friends, we bow our heads in memory of the victims of these terrible attacks. We will strongly and decisively continue the battle against terrorists until their total annihilation,” he said.

Mr Putin earlier provoked a storm of condemnation on the Russian internet on Sunday after the message broadcast an hour earlier in Kamchatka, Russia’s most easterly timezone, made no mention of the attacks.

The second speech was quickly recorded at a reception for victims of devastating floods that struck Khabarovsk and other Far Eastern cities earlier this year. His comments after Volgograd began to bury its dead and the death toll from the suicide blasts continued to rise.

>>>Putin believes that it is better to do than to be seen to perhaps do. I believe that there is a story of an Islamist group who took a Russian Special Force commando hostage and were playing tough guy with Putin.

Putin apparently kidnapped a very high ranking Islamist from the area and had him videotaped being thrown into a furnace. I think that that area got really peaceful for a long while.<<<

It was in Beirut, Lebanon circa 1985 long before Putin took power.
Palestinians were annoyed with a presence of foreign operators in Beirut and demanded withdrawal, the French has evacuated theirs while both CIA and KGB haven’t. As a result terrorists have abducted a CIA station chief Willy Franc Buckley as he was leaving home for work and also captured a Soviet diplomat believed to be an undercover KGB agent.
Soviets delivered ultimatum to Hizballah demanding release of their man and airlifted Alpha (anti-terrorist) and Vympel (terrorist) groups to Beirut who briefly identified the terrorists and abducted a number of their revatives. Palis were outraged and threatened to execute their hostage but later this day Vympels captured a brother of their leader, amputated his genitals and sent to the rest of terrorists.
At that point KGB has won as their blindfolded man was dropped out of the car in the downtown alive.
Unfortunately, it hasn’t helped Buckley (RIP) who was executed by terrorists shortly after.

This could mean a stream of Muslim “refugees” coming into America and we’ll be stuck with more terrorists.
