When the Russian's start killing all the mooslems and anyone that practices islam I will turn a blind eye.

I can't wait for the mooslems to start terrorist bombings in China...... I don't think the Chinese will tolerate it one bit.....:munchin

The Russians have a long and noteworthy history of dealing with Islamic terrorism - and being directly affected by it in ways we have yet to experience here in the US.

And I agree. The Chinese won't stand for it at all. :munchin

At least 14 people have been killed in a suicide bombing on a bus in the Russian city of Volgograd, investigators say.

I wonder if this has anything to do with syria? I am curious if Saudi Arabia has unleashed some of their cutouts in protest. They threatened to do that for the olympic games with their Chechins.

China has been attacked repeatedly by Muslim Uighurs.

Quote from article:As-Safir said Prince Bandar pledged to safeguard Russia’s naval base in Syria if the Assad regime is toppled, but he also hinted at Chechen terrorist attacks on Russia’s Winter Olympics in Sochi if there is no accord. “I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us,” he allegedly said.

Based on my reading of what information is available from the US / German press, I doubt that Saudi Arabia or anyone else will control Emir Dokka Abu Uthman or the jihadi in Russia’s North Caucasus' (or those on TDY is Syria).

I think that Putin and the Russian intelligence Service have a real problem with the Sochi Olympics.

Russia’s Putin promises to annihilate terrorists after deadly bombings

Published December 31, 2013/
FoxNews.com

Russian President Vladimir Putin Tuesday promised to annihilate all "terrorists" in response to two deadly bombings less than 24 hours apart in the southern Russian city of Volgograd.

"We will confidently, fiercely and consistently continue to fight against terrorists until their complete annihilation," Putin said in the video, Reuters reported. He went on assure safety in the upcoming Winter Olympics in Sochi.

Russian leaders typically make short, prerecorded messages to be broadcast as the year begins in each of the country's nine time zones.

The address broadcast in Russia's Far East was typical, showing Putin at the Kremlin and calling for Russians to work together, according to Russian news websites. But an hour later, Putin came out with a different speech mentioning this week's suicide bombings in Volgograd that killed 34 people and vowing to destroy terrorists, reports said.

The attacks occurred on Sunday and Monday and police believe the two attacks are connected.

The Interior Ministry ordered police to beef up patrols at railway stations and other transport facilities across Russia. Putin on Monday summoned the chief of the main KGB successor agency and the interior minister to discuss the situation, and sent the former to Volgograd to oversee the probe.

Suicide bombings have rocked Russia for years, but most have been in the North Caucasus region. However, Volgograd has now been struck three times in two months -- suggesting militants may be using the transportation hub as a renewed way of showing their reach outside their restive region.

No group has claimed responsibility for either explosion, which occurred several months after Chechen rebel leader Doku Umarov called for new attacks against civilian targets in Russia, including the Sochi Games.

Volgograd, a city of 1 million people formerly known as Stalingrad during the Soviet era, is located approximately 425 miles northeast of the Black Sea resort town of Sochi, the site of next February's winter Olympics. Both cities are located near the unstable North Caucasus region, where Islamic insurgents have waged a campaign of violence against rule from Moscow for the better part of two decades.

Interesting article in today's news.

Not discussed is how much money and how many concessions were made by this Adminstration to see these three shuttled off somewhere else.

I liked the part where Albania (Albania?) took 6 of them earlier then said "No mas!":p

And it's a shame they don't want to live in the garden spot of Bermuda...or El Salvador. I wonder if they inquired about Honduras:confused:

Should have sent them back to China...they have good re-education camps there and lot of low wage manufacturing jobs once one's head is on straight again:o

[kgoerz]

Putin is behind this. Needs an excuse to thump some people before the Olympics. Worked last time when he bombed the apartment buildings.
Or he might blame it on the Gays.

[MR2]

It's Bush's fault...

[abc_123]

But wait, shouldn't they be concerned about making sure that their "diversity" isn't a casualty of the attack as well?

We had some Chechen's in the body counts in Zabul few years back...easy to tell the ethnic diff (and healthier build).
It is all the same cause.
