Fighting Russian state sponsored violence in Chechnya with lives of innocent children is barbarism of highest order. It depicts ugly facade of those who try to equate callous and merciless actions as legitimate response to injustices committed.

Freedom fight is not about killing children’s in schools. This is a flagrant violation of basic contract of ‘mutual human trust’ that allow us to live on this planet as human beings, it is for this reason we don’t have armed guards on doors of our school it is for this reason that our daily life goes on as usual since it is taken as granted that that our long held dictum of ‘live and let others live’ is respected medievalism and ideological extremism helps justify savagery and inhuman crimes against humanity, however today the world should realize that the salient feature of this unwritten moral commitment amongst us that ‘life of other human being has to be treasured’ is under peril.

We humankind at large irrespective of our ideological moorings have to denounce this and fight this ever-increasing animalistic tendencies with collective vitality. There can be no ‘moral equivalence’ drawn between hostage taking and freedom fights, from time immemorial the principles of wars excluded innocent civilians as legitimate targets, the rewriting of this notion today is ''Ladenism'' brand of medieval extremism, we need to stamp it with collective effort.
