Hundreds Held Hostage in Russia School

The jihad in Russia continues to intensify. Note that although "the Qur'an forbids suicide and the killing of non-combatants," as we're told endlessly, these attackers, who are almost certainly Muslim jihadists, have no compunction about wearing suicide belts and holding children hostage. From AP, with thanks to Nicolei:

MOSCOW - Attackers wearing suicide-bomb belts seized a school in a Russian region bordering Chechnya on Wednesday and were holding hundreds of hostages, reportedly including 200 children. The assault came a day after a suicide bomber killed 10 people in Moscow.

At least two people were killed, including a father who had brought his child to the school and was shot when he challenged the attackers, said Fatima Khabolova, a spokeswoman for the regional parliament. A hostage-taker also was killed and nine people were injured, she said.

The seizure began after a ceremony marking the first day of the Russian school year, reports said, when it was likely that many parents had accompanied their children to the school. The attackers warned they would blow up the school, which covers grades 1-11, if police tried to storm it and forced children to stand at the windows, said Alexei Polyansky, a police spokesman for southern Russia.

Suspicion in both the school attack and the Moscow bombing fell on Chechen rebels or their sympathizers, but there was no evidence of any direct link. The two strikes came just a week after two Russian planes carrying 90 people crashed almost simultaneously in what officials also say were terrorist bombings.

"In essence, war has been declared on us, where the enemy is unseen and there is no front," Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov said.

The latest violence also appears to be timed around last Sunday's presidential elections in Chechnya, a Kremlin-backed move aimed at undermining support for the insurgents by establishing a modicum of civil order in the war-shattered republic. The previous Chechen president, Akhmad Kadyrov, was killed along with more than 20 others in a bombing on May 9.

There is a special place in Hell for these Islamo-bastards.

I just heard on the news these islamo-fascists are saying that for every one of their guys that gets killed by the russians they will kill 50 children. What amazes me is that these people seem to beleive that what they are doing is ok. WHy am I asking this. Becuase even when Hitler and Stalin were killing chidren they never tried to openly advertise it to the world. They knew they couldn't ideologically get away with justifying it. I guess these islamo-fascists have an ideology that makes them beelive they can justify killing 50 children for every one of their thugs. Is a completely evil/barbaric mindset to say the least.

So, the Chechen scumbags want to really piss off the Russians even more, eh? What brilliant assholes. Unlike us, the Russians never fooled around when they destroyed Grozny and killed and terrorized a good percentage of the surviving Chechen population. Now I hope the Russians get good and riled and finish the job. I for one, will just laugh as allies of the global jihad are once and for all eliminated. Bye bye O' brave mujahadden! Say hello to allah for me when you kiss his ass in hell.

My dears, it's all part of Islam dontcha know, you
can blow up babies, pregnant women, anyone[as long
as they are infidels] with Allah's blessing and reward in Paradise. What other religion gives you
a free hand to murder,eh!! Then there are the interesting bits such as mutilation/amputation and cutting of throats to hear Infidel's last splutter and gasps...And with Infidel technology, you will always be able to relive these enjoyable
moments.

Dr. Timothy McDonough, a Political Economist in Texas, warned publicly over two years ago that this sort of tactic would be used by jihadis against schools. From his website:

For a decade, guerrilla military forces have crossed the borders of the United States and assumed covert positions deep within the sovereign territory of the nation. At the command of a foreign headquarters, elements of these forces executed coordinated hostile military actions against civilian American targets in New York City and Washington DC. Nearly 3,000 American civilians died. Hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of additional guerrilla forces remain under cover to await further orders to conduct military operations against more American civilian targets, including "soft" targets such as schools, shopping centers, sporting events and entertainment venues.

I have said on this forum and others that my greatest concern is the vulnerability of schools. It is not hard to envision a scenario where multiple teams of jihadi commandos would coordinate low-tech raids on schools in suicide missions designed to inflict maximum anguish on the victims and their families. The law enforcement community is totally unprepared for such a scenario.

Such attacks would certainly fan the rage of the nation into a resolve on a scale that has not been witnessed since WWII. If it is war the jihadis want, this sort of thing will surely grant their wish.

If anyone wishes to criticize me or anyone else for even discussing such a horror in public out of fear that it might give the jihadis the idea, it is time to pack your bags and head for Antarctica because they have had this, and other equally sinister ideas for years. One of the central criticisms leveled by the 9-11 Commission was the "failure of imagination". In order to defeat these guys, we need to first learn how to think collectively as darkly as they do. Then we need to have the courage to pre-emptively act.

"We are going to kill and kill and kill -- not the innocent, only the enemy -- until they are sick of this war." --General James Mattis, commander of the First Marine Division.

Soon even the loonie lefties wont be able to defend the Chechen's.

I want to say that my heart is with the Russian People in this Fight against mulsum terrorist and I pray that the Children will come out a live and that the Russians gain their Strength to Stand with the USA against these MONSTERS!

Part of the American Tribe
God Bless the USA & Russia and their Fighting Forces and All who Fight with them give them Strength,Wisdom and Courage to defeat this Evil Amen

What would Americans do if and when the Mulsum monsters take our Children and burn their schools and our Churches what will we do?

Will we be like Our Grandparnts and do the right thing and forgive themselves I say Yes Remember It was Russia That was a big part of the WW2 winning side they fought with the USA and who is it we are in Space with YES it is Russia once again we need to Open our Eyes!!


We have a common enemy that must be destoryed!!


Part of the American Tribe
God Bless the USA & Russia and their Fighting Forces and All who Fight with them Give them Strength,Wisdom and Courage to stay the course to Victory to defeat this EVIL Amen

they just stated that: They will kill 50 children for every bullet the russian police will fire.

I notice Reza doesn't have anything to say on this topic.

O brave mujahedeen.

Lets hope the Russians do not rush in after gassing the place and settle for a 25% casuallty rate like they did in that Opera house last year.

The Qur'an also makes it quite clear that where "infidels" are concerned -- there are no innocents. Islamists will murder children in our own country next if we do not oust these people from our shores.

I am becoming dangerously close to calling for severe action Islam in the United States. Will it take the blood of our children for us to deal with this menace? I would like to think not, but we are a nation where freedom protects fools and cowards as much as the rest of us, unfortunately.

Edit: severe action AGAINST Islam....

to avatar: even if the russians gas the place, i doubt the civilian casualties will be as high as they were in the moscow theatre. many of those who perished from the gas were elderly and/or in poor health. the russians did not have enough first responders on the scene to give the appropriate amount of emergency medical attention. russians might not be perfect, but i'm sure they learn from their mistakes.

and who is it we are in Space with YES it is Russia

YES! Who upon this planet yearns for space ?

Who upon this planet yearns only for blood in the dirt? and Absolute power for only the few over the mass of their populations?
ISLAM is seen to be slavery of the masses.

There are few choices, Human expansion into space which (in time) bring food for all, and energy cheap and abundant.
OR barbaric tribal factions across the entire globe living in the ruins of once great cities existing in a perpetual state of Barbaric murder (genocides) starvation and desertification

All civilized nations upon the Earth must come together ,agree to disagree and unite in securing the bright shining future that CAN be realized thru micro-gravity,(zero gravity) experimentation.

These things written are not an (opinion) formed of bigotry or some (rabid) hatred of Muslims.
(we have no real emotional state in current events)
These things written are only what is.

The religion known as ISLAM and its resultant Law (shira) are only a massive step backwards towards the dirt with NO hope for the future of humans OR the EARTH


many many shades of grey aside ,it boils down to a future of lifting up , or smashing down of the human species.

If Islam spreads across the globe then it WILL turn upon itself!
Then it will be Muslims holding (murdering) OTHER Muslims children.
Revenge and counter revenge add nausium until only wreckage of the (once close to the next stage of evolution)
human race remains.

It is sad that somany must soon die across the planet due to an outdated tribal ideology that does NOTHING to advance the species.

We are in hopes that (Civilization) wins over (barbarism) in the end, and resumes the noble and peace-loving expansion into the next realm.

It is sad that a failed ideology has gained somuch power and latitude so as to be able to divert and DEVOUR massive resources that could have been used to further mankind's search for the answers to creation of power, and food, and shelter for ALL mankind as a direct result of space experimentation.

The Russians should issue their own ultimatum - for every Russian child that is murdered by these cowards AN ENTIRE VILLAGE WILL BE LIQUIDATED IN CHECHNYA!

This is the true face of "Islam"

Attackers threaten children
“They have said that for every fighter wiped out they will kill 50 children and for every fighter wounded, 20,” Kazbek Dzantiyev told local journalists in Beslan in Russia’s North Ossetia region".

How much longer will the politically correct media refer to these bloodthirsty Islamic killers as "militants" "rebels" and "insurgents".

Son of Isalm:

In case you didn't happen to read my post on an earlier thread.

You asked me once if there was anything that "made my blood boil...."

This makes me angry; my heart is filled with rancor and if I get the chance to go to that school in Russia ....

Did you know that in Russia, September 1, is the traditional day in which school children start their classes? The first graders actually dress up in very special clothes just as many Americans dress up for Sunday church services.

When they graduate from 10th grade, they dress the same way as the day they entered the first grade. It is a day they will always remeber. The islamist know it too no doubt. Those first graders ....

Reza, the grand kids will be what or you are going to do what?

I'd like to hear it uttered personally from your lips Reza -- and it might just happen. I will certainly give you an appropriate rejoinder in person.

You will pray that no harm comes to these children, won't you Reza?

At Auschwitz is was common practice to separate children from their mothers on the rail platforms and send them to the gas chambers.

The children were worthless as labor; separation demoralized the adult inmates...any that had temporary worth as labor; and finally, the ultimate aim was extermination of whole peoples, especially 'evil', 'polluted' Jews, and killing all the children would, of course, achieve that.

Why attack schools in the Jihad? Demoralize and threaten the very roots of the society and/or people (Infidels) one wishes to destroy. The ultimate aim of the Jihad is extermination of nonbelief and nonbelievers: and, strangely, the global Jihad (of which this is a part) is galvanized by a special, obsessive hatred for the Jews, nourished by the same lies, distortions, and anti-Semitic ranting, used by the Nazi just 60-70 years ago.

Another strange thing: Mass murder and suffering in Russia and the Holocaust were related in many horrific ways. And now the Jihad...Russians would do well to remember what it took to defeat the Nazis. Another time of national reckoning has sounded, I believe.

This just goes to show you that Islam is not a religion of peace as all Muslims claim.Islam is nothing but barbaric.Can you imagine how the muslims would react if muzlim children(islamic baby boomers-literally) were held hostage in a North American islamic school?

JTF:

The Russians know very well what to do to the Chechens. The USA just has to stay quiet and let the Russians do what is necessary for their, and ultimatey our, survival.

The Chechens are a part of the global jihad and Chechen scum are known to have trained with Al-Q in Pakistan. Chechen fighters have been captured in Afghanistan as well and are problably in Iraq.

Yes, it is certainly time for the Russians to reckon with the Chechens just as our time to reckon with the fifth-column islamic scum in this nation may be upon us in the near future. I hope we have the balls to do the job; I know the Russians do.

It seems they do this barbaric act against the young of the civilization that holds their brethren..... like minded butchers, to gain the release of their brethren .

It may seem cold and inhumane (and it shall be) for Russia to NO LONGER take prisoners... But summary execution for all terrorist that may be captured.
Thusly, there will be no butchers in Russian jails to necessitate further taking of hostages to gain their release in the future.

These ISLAMIC Muslims (I refuse to say extremists)
.......... "excrementilists?"
These Muslims, are infact successfully dictating Russian policy .But not in the way they want.... they are dictating Russian policy toward a
TAKE NO PRISONERS stance.

HOW MANY future GREAT men and women of HUGE commitment and singular contribution to the human race may be wasted by the deaths of these children?
it is NOT impossible to say that one child among 200 MAY be a future Ghandi, or Einstein, or Michelangelo type of person who contributes MUCH to the future of the human race.
Lost forever by the selfish actions of a few devoted followers of a dead end failed barbaric ideology .......very sad

International
Society of
Limb
Amputators and
Murderers

This action more than any other since the heinous attacks of 9-11-01 shows the evil nature of the islamic fascists. The Russians cannot (and will not) surrender to the demands of terrorists. Instead, they should promise that if these children are harmed, Mecca will be reduced to a sheet of radioactive glass within minutes.

I agree with Jim. ANY kind of negotiation with terror leads to more terror. They should launch a rescue operation as soon as possible,since the terrorists will kill the kids anyway. Then, they should start wiping out Chechens until there are no Chechens left.

Islamists want total war. Let's give them total war.

One further point I'd like to make - you can bet that osama bin-shathead, al-zawaqueeri & all others of their ilk will be watching this situation very closely. They will be looking to see if this breaks the Russians & they will be gauging the fallout from the rest of the world. They will make a balance sheet listing pros & cons of this operation & if they think they have gained more than they lost then this will become a standard tactic in the modus operandi of the worldwide jihad. Chechnya is a proving ground for this tactic as the madrid bombings were for the ability to influence elections & the fillipino truckdriver was for the fracturing of the coalition. If the Russians do not hit back harder by at least an order of magnitude then we will be seeing much more of this to come.

Destroy them. Overwhelmingly. With utter & brutal finality.

Lets hope the Russians do not rush in after gassing the place and settle for a 25% casuallty rate like they did in that Opera house last year.

I think the jihadists have made a serious mistake here. The Russians are not pussies like the French and the Spanish. Yes, the Russian military is far weaker than it was during the Cold War, but the Russian people do not back down to murderous thugs. They are a proud people and will fight back.

The events of the last 2 weeks could push Russia onto the same page with the US and the UK in the Security Council. France will become irrelevant. Their only choice will be to join with the US, UK and Russia, or admit their irrelevance and become a pathetic "neutral" state like Swizterland.

NO!! How about 0% not including the cowards that took over the school.
What a dumb question!

Another reason to vote for Bush. These Islamist may not be aware of Kerry's much ballyhooed war record and strike at us next.

PS
Remember that all it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing

A big, bad nite of Terrorism on Tuesday: two buses blown up in Israel, a train-station in Moscow (and now a SCHOOL-HOUSE taken over by gunmen in North Ossetia, in the south of Russia), an even dozen Nepali kidnappees gruesomely murdered in Iraq....

Hamas perpetrated the first atrocity, the Chechen secessionists the second one, Iraqi “resistance-fighters” the third. The killers’ purblind or malevolent apologists cry for the individual “causes”, “Palestine”, Chechnia, Iraq, and elsewhere, each to be viewed SEPARATELY, “in their full and distinct contexts”, but - where it counts - finally, they’re all varying guises of the selfsame, negative phenomenon (sharing KEY features closely in common): bloodthirsty ISLAMO-FASCISM.

Optimally, this pernicious blight must be tackled in unison with the rest of the mortal enemies which it’s selected for itself, but if this isn’t satisfactorily, practically, attainable, then the Jihadis and their running-dogs will have to be combated as best as the US, plus its remaining Allies, can - making the sorely-misnamed “War on Terror” LENGTHIER, and so more likely to go Nuclear. Notwithstanding, in the near- to mid-term future, though, Major Allies of America in this confrontation could somehow turn out to be India, Russia &/or China.

India’s new Government’s problematic at this juncture, bending afresh to the Non Aligned Movement (of which it was once the Great Luminary). Nowadays, however, the NAM’s the pliant tool of the Arab League-“guided” Organization of Islamic Conferences, in the UN and in every international forum.

It could take the “neo-Idealists” of the inexperienced Congress-Communist Administration in New Delhi some brief “learning-period” before it wakes up and sees the dangers to the nation posed by the violence in Kashmir, where terrorism’s increasingly brewing up again, or in Assam, where there’s a nascent conflict gradually escalating between Indian security-forces and Moslem secessionists (supported by Saudi and UAE “brothers”, via agents in Bangladesh).

Russia, alternately, vacillates between following Europe, or America, or grimly making its own way - shambling, but Independent (for whatever that abstract’ll be worth then). For centuries through the Middle Ages, when it was weak and divided, Russia was devastated by Mongols and Turks; its oppressed people were DOUBLY afflicted - already dwelling under the harsh yoke of their feudal masters and the reactionary Orthodox Church, they were further lowered to the status of Dhimmitude in any intercourse with a roving Moslem of the Golden Horde, etc.

Moscow must decide, soon, whether it wants to risk a return to such times.... At this stage, it’s finding Europe’s masochistic, appeasement-happy route a tempting approach to emulate (being in a somewhat similar demographic bind, re its own declining population vis-à-vis a growing Islamic sector internally), but the Kremlin ought to know that such a path is ultimately FUTILE.

(Russia SHOULD have discovered this, once and for all, when the infamous Ribbentrop-Molotov Non-Aggression Pact - the crowning glory of cordial Soviet-German collaboration dating from 1922’s Rapallo Treaty, with which the USSR always took care to comply, both punctually and in full measure - broke down on June 22, 1941, when the Nazis blitzkreiged the Soviet Union.)
