CNN chose the term warlord. Ha warlord my ass. Does this look like the work of a warlord or a terrorist?…

His book is excellent and the MUST-READ of the year – and critical for every parent and grandparent to read. That is no exaggeration. A terrorist attack on American schools is too horrific to contemplate – therefore we must. Islamic terrorists have promised to attack American schools and that Beslan was only a trial run. How do we know that they will follow through? Because as LTC Dave Grossman has said, the best predictor of future conduct is past behavior. They already have attacked schools all over the world, they will attack ours. It is only a matter of time.

For more specific info on the book, I have reviewed it in detail here. I have no other attachment to the book other than, as a former Army officer and concerned parent, I recognize how crucial it is for America to read it and implement the very practical preparations found within its pages.

BTW, Chechen terrorists are among the most brutal in the world. They are harsh and depraved even among themselves. They start their children young, forcing them to revel in torture at a very early age – watching their fathers torture others, and learning how to saw heads off at 11 and 12 – when our kids are playing Little League. They are hard-core Islamists and deserve no sympathy. Just some food for thought.

Who’s lying to save face? Putin, who says it was Russian security forces what done it, or the Chechens?

Sounds like a true accident to me. The Russions got lucky I think, and will of course seek credit for it.

But, if they initiated the “explosion” on purpose, more power to them. One less human cockroach.
