TERRORISM IN RUSSIA. WAR ON AN INVISIBLE ISLAMIC ENEMY
MOSCOW, September 1st, 2004 (RIA Novosti political commentator Pyotr Romanov) - Yesterday's explosion in Moscow has been followed by another terrorist attack today: a school has been seized in the North Ossetian town of Beslan. Children and their parents, approximately 120 people who were in the school to mark the beginning of the new school year, have been taken hostage. This attack came after the recent explosion near Moscow's Kashirskoye metro station and the August 24 explosions on two planes, which, when taken together, paint a gloomy picture. "In essence, a war has been declared on us, with an invisible enemy and no front line," Russian Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov has stated. Posted by: Mark Espinola 2004-09-02 |
