Vladimir Putin vows 'total annihilation' of terrorists after Volgograd bombings
The Telegraph ^ | 31 Dec 2013 | Roland Oliphant

Posted on 12/31/2013 8:51:55 AM PST by MarkBsnr

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.

Vladimir will annihilate them if he can find them, but that is the problem, particularly in so large a nation.

The terrorists can hide among the Muslim population, and finding them can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. One solution would be to just torch the haystack.

Putin will go after the clans and families of terrorist to extract more information. He will be ruthless going after the perpetrators and any would be future perpetrators that dare embarrass Putin/Russia during its Sochi Olympic games

Obama after the Boston Marathon bombing:

“We still do not know who did this or why, and people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts,” the president said.

I think Snowden may be of some help in running down the terrorist dogs.

Good hunting Vlad! I wish you much success...

I can only imagine zeros response:

"Please come to a beer summit to discuss. I'll bring the beer and lots of taxpayer dough to pay you for your services..."

if he can find them, but that is the problem, particularly in so large a nation.

It should be noted that many of the terrorist threats here have been thwarted by average citizens who, in going about their day, noticed something/someone that did not look right/looked out of place exc... and reported it to authorities or they stopped it themselves (i.e. the shoe bomber stopped by the flight attendant.)

They should have some kind of Russian "If You See Something , Say Something" effort, like we had here after 9/11.

Also, everyone at the Olympics should be on alert for anything unususal-the people need not be nervous, but just stay aware. (Hopefully all the nations will cooperate so the Olympics can take place without any problems.)

That said, I hope they get every single one of the Chechnyan terrorists- Not only did they get us in Boston, but, these are the monsters who came up with the idea, and whose members carried out, the slaughter of the school children in Beslan.
They can all go burn in hell.

The bear is acting weak. They should say ‘any more violence from Chechnya and you get nuked. Period. We’ll start with 1 city with a small population and use a low yield. After that another city with a higher yield.’

We should’ve done that on 9/11 as well. Sadly we’re in the tank with the Saudis who support this stuff and more.

Both sides would get to test their stockpile and the terrorism thing would end fairly quick.

Identify mosques the terrorists attend..... then dynamite and bulldoze the rubble. Giving notice for anyone inside to vacate the mosque

Putin says “annihilation” - if I was one of the bad guys, I’d go to icy Antarctica and stay there. Putin will get them. Meanwhile, Hussein Obama will ride his bicycle and sign executive orders. He is a pebble and Putin is a boulder.
