 The story of the hostages is ridiculous to the point of tears, hysterical laughter, almost to the point of smashing your fist against the wall. This is the laughter of impotence, the laughter of pain, the laughter of sympathy and misunderstanding of what took place.
I must admit that I sincerely pity those who must decide the fates of men, women, and children in distress.  Be first to comment this article | Views: 6298 | E-mail

The events in Moscow. Who ordered a taxi to Dubrovka? Why is no one negotiating?  The whole country continues to tensely follow the drama unfolding in the capital. The first days of the standoff tick by. What has been done? What are they getting ready to do? And most importantly — WHO is going to do it? What happened to Putin on Wednesday night probably has never happened to any other government or leader. Well, maybe something similar happened during the days of the Tartar Timir Bulatovich, the successor who changed the profession (to retiree) of Ivan Vasilyevich the Terrible. Lin Biao, the successor to the Great Helmsman, in his day also faced a difficult dilemma. But all of them, including today's (and yesterday's) colleagues of Vladimir Vladimirovich (Putin), never had to make a decision of similar complexity.

 In New York City a memorial was dedicated to the victims of the September 11th terrorist attacks, according to Agence France-Presse. The opening of the memorial was part of a ceremony marking the tenth anniversary of the terror attacks.
The ceremony began with a moment of silence for the nearly three thousand who perished. The minute was timed to the moment when the first of the terrorist-captured airplanes crashed into the World Trade Center towers. In future ceremonies there will be five more observations of a minute of silence — to mark the moment when the second airliner struck the second tower, the time the third airliner crashed into the Pentagon, the time the fourth airliner crashed in Pennsylvania (the airplane crashed because passengers resisted the attackers), and the moments when each tower collapsed.

 Europe today is observing the Day of Victims of Terrorism. This day commemorates over 5,000 people who were victims of terrorist attacks that occurred in the European Union.In his speech before the European Parliament (EP), EP chairman Jerzy Buzek noted: “terrorists have declared war against the civilian population and carry, out their acts in places where people used to feel safe. This is shameful, deceitful and cowardly. This is why terrorism can never be justified.” According to European Commissioner for Internal Affairs Cecilia Malmström, the threat of terrorism in the European Union is real, and therefore the efforts of EU member states should focus on preventing new terrorist attacks. “An important aspect of this work is combating the radicalization that is conducive to terrorism. This has been defined as one of the key objectives of the European strategy of internal security. The issues of radicalization can only be solved together with local communities. In this regard, this year we will set up a system of radicalization prevention and prophylaxis among vulnerable populations,” said C. Malmström.
