Avi   (03.29.10)
i don't beleive that you realy think so, how can you be so stupid, does it hurt? i don't see here that the bombers were Israel citizens i can give you a hint about their origin. All terrorist are Muslim and this is related to their adducation and exploiting religion for terrorism
35. :: Brian - #18 - what about the Israeli model
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (03.29.10)
Actually suicide bombing can be traced back to the 1880's in Russia when Ignacy Hryniewiecki killed Tsar Alexander II so stop trying to pretend that suicide bombings are a 'Palestinian invention'. And lest we forget shall we name a few of the Israeli terrorists that ‘exercised their legitimate right to resist Palestinian occupation’? Alan Goodman attacked Palestinians at al-Aqsa Mosque . Yonah Avrushmi who threw a hand grenade at a Peace Now demonstration. Yehuda Richter who opened fire on a Palestinian bus in the WB. David Ben-Shimol who shot a rocket he stole from the IDF at a Palestinian bus in E Jerusalem. Danni Eisenman who killed a Palestinian taxi driver. Raphael Solomon who shot and killed two Palestinians. Ami Popper who shot and killed seven Gazan Palestinian day workers. Baruch Goldstein who shot and killed 29 Palestinian while they were praying. Noam Friedman who opened fire in the center of Hebron. Gur Hammel who used a rock to shatter the head of an elderly Palestinian man. Eliran Golan who planted several homemade bombs in Haifa, targeting local Arab citizens. Eden Natan-Zadah who shot at passengers of an Israeli Egged killing four Arab citizens. Asher Vizgan who killed four Palestinians. Gosh Brian just looking at this list it would seem that Israeli Jews are just as capable of acts of terror as the next person!
36. Better call the UNSC
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (03.29.10)
And get them to issue Russia a call for restraint and to condemn their incitement against Muslims. This is what we get all the time.

41. THIS WILL ONLY BACKFIRE !!!.
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (03.29.10)
DO THEY NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE ANSWER FROM RUSSIA WILL BE ???. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev ordered senior officials to fight terrorism "without hesitation, to the end." He said Russia will act without compromise to root out terrorists and ordered security to be boosted across the country. He said human rights must be respected during police operations, a Kremlin spokesman said. THIS IS A JOKE - He said human rights must be respected during police operations, a Kremlin spokesman said. TO KILL INNOCENT RUSSIAN CIVILIANS, WILL ONLY UNITE THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE BEHIND THEIR LEADERS. THIS IS THE MOST BAD STRATEGY AND TACTIC, THOSE TERRORIST COULD COME UP WITH. I WILL NOT SUGGEST WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE INSTEAD !!!. Arn.

43. muslim terrorists
cyla stern ,   woodmere, usa   (03.29.10)
all the world are taking muslim's side, in a way Putin and Europien countries are afraid to condemn muslim countries, they are dependent on their oil. It is easier and more convient to blame Israel all the time.My heart goes to people in Moscow.
44. moslem suicide bombers
igor   (03.29.10)
Well, the UN, obama, clinton, the EU and ban ki-moon insist that putin make concessions to chechnyia. And Goldstone will prosecute you for war crimes if you hit innocent chechyn civilians even though the militants hide behind the civilians. Notice how the asskisser assad condemns the moscow blast even as he calls for blood from abbas and bloodies his hands in hezbollah blasts. And israel should return golan to this cretin.He is full of it and would continue terror even when golan return and west bank return and e.jeruslam return. i bang the table-obama-do you hear-no more concessions- that it! Its Jordan that has to give up its land to the palestinians. And one million jews htat wwere kicked out of arab lands in 48 have to be compensated by the arab league. Putin will now slaughter thouisands of chechyns and will tell any critics to go to hell. This is what israel should do.
45. this is a crime against humanity ...where are all the leftis
rachel ,   usa   (03.29.10)
leftists protests?
46. Work together
mike caton ,   USA   (03.29.10)
Both Israel AND Russia are fighting Radical Islam. They ought to be close allies,help each other in this ongoing conflict. Russia is as much in danger from rising fundamentalist Islam as is Israel--look at the southern borders of Russia-a great Islamic explosion will soon erupt there. Russia will need Israel's help in this monumental battle.
47. #35 Groves - What a puny list of individuals. I have a rea
meir elazar   (03.29.10)
LIST. Let's start wth organizations: HAMAS, AL-QAEDA, Hezbollah, PRC, El Aqsa, Abus Sayaf, PFLP, FATAH(PLO), Taliban, etc. Now terrorist countries: Iran, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Lebanon (Under Hezbollah not the Legitimate leaders), etc. Terrorist incidents: WTC, Pentagon, Shankville, London bombing, Madrid bombings, Amman wedding bombings, Sinai, Bali, Buenos Aires, Moscow theatre, Beslan, Mumbai, PAL Massacres in 1920 29 and 36, Park Hotel, Heb Univ, cafeteria, Sbaros, Mike place, dozens of buses, Tractor attacks, 10000 rockets from Gaza, beheading of Berg and Pearle, and on and on and on. YNET would not allow me to print the thousands of pages of Moslem terror attacks. So your puny list makes us look like Saints compared to the Moslem terrorists. And you know what after all massacres by Moslem terrorists, the probably deserve at least that many attacks in return.
48. Foolish Russians who support Iran
Joe ,   Canada   (03.29.10)
The Russian goverment military, diplomatic & scientific support of Iran's violent ambitions perhaps in the belief that it can gain some benefit from cozying with a dictatorial & fanatic regime is bound to cause the Russian people a lot of pain in the future from Iranian extremists of the same ilk as those of Chechnya. The Russians should remember the millions of deaths not prevented by Stalin signing a secret pact with Hitler to split any territorial conquest of the two dictators. You can't trust a dictator for peace only for war or terror.
49. Avi 34-he's being sarcastic. He's posted here for 5 years.
He's a proud Zionist   (03.29.10)
50. Give us a call Russians. We can help you with your problem
William ,   Israel   (03.29.10)
We have lots of experience dealing with racist Muslim terrorists. Unfortunately, this is the one thing that brings many countries and Israel together in the world. But we're ready to help....for a positive vote in the UN.
51. #13 - What occupation? They target industrial parks
William ,   Israel   (03.29.10)
Within minutes of Israel's withdraw from Gaza as a hopeful peace gesture, Hamas fired rockets and RPGs at the IDF and Israeli civilians. Within minutes of winning elections, Hamas canceled all past peace agreements with Israel, made it their stated goal to destroy Israel, and led attacks on the Karni Crossing (where Gazans get food, petrol, and other shipments) and Erez Industrial park (where many Gazans worked and crossed into Israel for employment). How can Hamas be "fighting the occupation" when they mostly target their own people and continue to oppress them daily? They're no better than the Chechen terrorists - hence the operative word "terrorists"!
52. Dokka Umarov
observer   (03.29.10)
Responding to Russian claims that he was an Islamic extremist, he descriped himself as a "traditionalist", and said: "Before the start of the first war in 1994, when the occupation began and I understood that war was inevitable, I came here as a patriot. I'm not even sure I knew how to pray properly then. It's ridiculous to say I'm a Wahhabist or a radical Muslim." Umarov denied that the Chechen separatism is linked to al-Qaeda or any other international jihadist groups, saying that the rebels' priority is liberty and independence from Russia and peace for the Caucasus.
53. #26 - If Islam is inseparable from Russia...
William ,   Israel   (03.29.10)
why do Muslim terrorists everywhere, from Chechnya to Al-Qaeda in Yemen support the idea of Muslim supremacy and attacks on non-Muslim countries and ideology? Aren't these Muslim terrorists really attacking themselves (other Muslims)? Or perhaps they mean to say that Russia shouldn't exist anymore under the larger Islamic Caliphate? Perhaps that terrorist mentality is exactly what Russia, the Western world, and Israel, is fighting against and not Muslim in particular.... unless you consider the silence of Muslims over these atrocities.
54. #35 - Only 13 instances over 20 years?
William ,   Israel   (03.29.10)
That's not much of a precedent to make a claim that an established Israeli model of terrorism exists. You cited 13 incidents, all of which were by members of fringe groups and self-directed. Hell, the IDF can count 13 incidents of "Palestinian" terror in just one day!! And it's funding by Arab States, and supported by govt leaders via local TV and govt-supported Imams. Hmmm... That THAT sounds more like a systematic terrorism machine, doesn't it Matty? Even if the "Palestinians" haven't laid the first bomb, they are the first to use terror systematically, and use women and children in their terror agenda, including suicide bombings. And let's not forget the gift the "Palestinians" gave us of airline hijackings thanks to Leila Khalid in 1970! Besides terrorism, no one can really point to what "Palestinians" DO export. But we can point to the number of terror incidents and groups around the world that suddenly have top members from "Palestinian" origin.
55. :: William - #54
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (03.29.10)
William if you knew anything about Jewish history you would know that there are far more examples of Jewish/Israeli Terrorists than the short listing I mentioned. Lets us not for get about such terror groups as TNT and the JDL. Lets not forget about the JDL firebomb attack in NY in 1972. In fact the JDL has a long history of terror attacks and bomb attacks in the US mainly in NYC. Or the JDL member who hijacked a helicopter in NY in 1975 and demanding $2 million ransom to buy guns for the JDL. From 1980 to 1984 TNT planted a number of car bombs and planned to blow up busses and mosques with Palestinians inside them. Let’s not forget about the Jewish ‘Revenge Patrol’ in 1992 and their grenade attack on the Old City. Let’s not forget about the group of settlers from the illegal Bat-Ayin settlement in 2001 who attempted to plant bombs in a Palestinian school. Let us not forget about Europe and Tagar (another Jewish Terror Group) who carried out about 50 terror attacks. In all there have been murders/attacks/arson/etc. To sum up: we have cases of Jewish terror attacks in the US and Europe as well as within the Palestinian Occupied Territories. Such Jewish Terror Attacks (numbering in the hundreds) include: murder, kidnapping, bomb attacks, hijacking, arson, savage beating etc etc and guess what William 99% of these attacks or planned attacks have been against civilians or public places/transport systems. Gee William it would seem that Jews engaging in and ‘exporting terror’ and target innocent civilians just like Palestinian ‘terror groups’. I think you will be hard pressed to find any difference between the two.
56. Disgusting brutes!!!
Yakov   (03.29.10)
The Chechens strike again. It just goes to show that they should have never been granted any autonomy. Hard earned tax money from Russians-yes Jews included-was used to rebuild the province. And for what? Chechnya does NOT DESERVE ANY consideration for independence. They lost all right to ask for it with their brutality against innocent people. Remember what happened in Beslan. BRUTES!! I only have condolences for the families who lost loved ones in the attack. May they be comforted knowing that many people around the world stand in their support in this moment of loss.
57. to nr. 18- moscow-attack.
sjoerd van der velde ,   hoorn-the netherland   (03.30.10)

58. As a bulldozer in Tel Aviv, I have to disagree, #50
Cameron ,   USA   (03.30.10)
59. Alan sez you guys dont understand sarcasm!
Alan ,   SA   (03.30.10)
How can you believe that I,a big Zionist, think building in Jerusalem can cause Chechens to bomb Moscow Metro . Really! I must watch my sarcasm. It really backfired badly on me!Sorry.
