The Chechen's have every right to despise Moscow. Russia has virtually annihilated Chechnya.
The fact that the Islamists have entered the picture is the problem.
There are numerous threads on this, none active, apparently.
Welcome to World War IV.
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
the original thread had about 400 responses, I cannot find it now.
Over on the Breaking News sidebar.
I prefer Crusades II.
Chechnya = Sunni Muslims = terrorists = separatists = Islamists = Islam = murderers = subhuman scum.

Not to worry. If Kerry is elected he will hunt these terrorists down and arrest them.
< The Chechen's have every right to despise Moscow. >
I'm sorry. A terrorist is a terrorist is a terrorist...
I hope this persuades the Russians to stop opposing us in the UN Security Council every time we go to bat against our enemies. If we could add Japan and/or India to the Council it might tip the balance in our favor to some extent. It's time for the free world (new members included) to realize that we have to crush this business before China gets any ideas about how weak our resolve is.
"Not to worry. If Kerry is elected he will hunt these terrorists down and arrest them."
That's right - just like Clinton did.
There is a lot here about the War on Terror.
Is this the same Russia that opposed our going into Iraq to fight the terrorists that havenow crashed two of their planes?
I'm so sorry for the Russian people. They have my deepest sympathies. Take care, and may you find all the courage and strength you need to handle yourselfs in the coming days.
What, the USA went to Iraq to fight Chechens ? Because it's most probably Chechen groups that are behind these attacks...
I've been calling it aAmerican-Islamic war III.
I'm not so sure. Moscow's main airport Sheremetyevo, is run by the Russian mafia and was a complete disaster the last five times I flew out of it. Domodedovo is an up and coming competitor, and many airlines, sick of the Mafia's influence and cost, were trying to move flights to Domodedovo. I can see this as a warning to the airlines that are moving flight from SVO.
Or maybe if Kerry is elected he will hunt these terrorists down and scold them.
