Russia boasts on how it will destroy the terrorists after at least 38 are slaughtered by two female suicide bombers, presumably from Chechnya. The West has heard that time and time again, and the military apparatus, as well as the pro-Kremlin local goon-squad will squash a few people mercilessly. There will be no peace in the Caucasus for a long time, but do the Russians have the stomach for war? May Russia’s people survive this new onslaught, and may they eventually develop competent leadership to get them out of their mess. How many times must Putin and Medveded continue to play footsie with Iran while that same regime quite possibly has a hand in funding their extremist elements? We’ll see.
