>>All he did was ask for a cite<<

It's been a long time since 9/11, and I did not bookmark this, not expecting it would ever be something I'd bring up.

I found this via google.

Some, no doubt, were cynical. Some, I believe, were sincere.

The Russians are pissed off at what the bolsheviks did
to Russia during the 20th century. Not only did
the reds kill millions, erase Russian customs,
extinguish the culture, but they destroyed the economy,
and, hence, left the Russians vulnerable to the return of the
21st century "tatars"

I would like for you to prove your assertion right.

I don't like walking around with the growing dread that the only way my kids will grow up in a world fit for living in is to remove 1.3 Billion persons from it.

I also don't like walking around in a nation of people telling me to line up and drink the Kool Aid like they are because its the only way and any other choice is just unthinkable.

When it comes down to them or my kids, I know what my choice will be every time.

Should the mooselips pull off this attack well in their own eyes,
this situation will become somewhat of an example for others to
do the same

I think WTC pretty well demonstrated what is
possible to accomplish against an open society.
That cat has been out of the bag for some time.

Actually the entire Islamic world had a mass orgasm on Sept. 11, 2001 of such duration and intensity that they are just now reaching for their cigarette.

Their coverage sucks:

I'll briefly summarize:

- Terrorists armed with Automatic Weapons sieze the theater in which the musical the "North-East" is showing.

- A couple of dozen people (musician's and others familiar with the theater) escape. Terrorists release Children, muslems, and Georgean's (sp?)

- The terrorist mostly women are wired with explosives and begin to mine the building.

- Terrorists reportedly demand end to ware in Chechneya.

- Putin calls meeting, Moscow residents asked to stay inside.

- Interfax reports that the leader of the Chechen's inside is this guy Movsarom Barayevym whom has apparently been killed twice by Russian forces.

- Some Minister named Aslakhanov enters the theater to try to negotiate with the terrorists. He is in there about an hour but the terrorist refuse to negotiate with him.

- Now the terrorist supposedly with release 50 hostages in exchage for this guy Akhmada Of kadyrova.

That's about all that has been reported in Russia. Lemme know if I missed anything and see my posts #628, 644, 667, 700, 766, 798, 806, 816, 840 for more information and pictures from the seen.

I can name one. The crown prince of Saudi Arabia gave
the victim's families the rights to a race horse but not the studding rights
-- that'd be insane.

LOL  "They poured out a horse..."

Thanks! I think it's important to start flooding Russia with messages of support.

Hey, guys, it was a contest between Russia and us to see who'd be the leader of the West - and we won. And now, oddly enough, Russia is also on the firing line from the East.

>>Anybody know where we could send a message of support?<<

Good thinking. I'd send emails to the Russian media.

Try these:
http://www.rian.ru/
http://www.moscownews.ru/
http://www.themoscowtimes.com/
http://english.pravda.ru/

Website of the Russian Embassy in the US:
http://www.russianembassy.org/

I can't find an email address, but think I will buy a bouquet of flowers and bring it there in person. And one for the Aussies, too.

The islamo-fascists are very fanatical but not very bright.

I think they've just sealed their doom, as far as Russia is concerned.
