Or, more likely, the bombing was perpetrated by the same Islamist militants that are lobbing RPGs at American forces in Pakistan and beheading journalists. Militants like the Harkat ul Mujahadeen who have a vital interest in driving a wedge between the Musharef regime and the West. BUT, just as in the case of Danny Pearl's murder, it will drive Pakistan CLOSER to the West, and ACCELERATE the liquidation of radical militant Islam in Pakistani and Afghan politics.

The bombing was aimed at a busload of Westerners in front of a hotel full of Westerners. THAT was the message being sent. The fact that this act will push the heretofore neutral France furthur into line with America, strengthen the resolve of the Musharef regime, and alienate those sympathetic elements of the Pakistani military left for spiking a pet project (their subs) seems to have eluded them.

And you.

I just burned you cover Gustave GAG :

You are the most shadowy emanation of the Mossad like guys.

You mission : to throw doubt on the pro Arabs.

Means to achieve you goals : proclaim such stupid things about Jews,Israel,IDF, so that all you readers will close rank against you and, later easier, against all Arabs.

And I am sure you have a few medals to throw around, showing how flashy and clever you are.

But that post of yours on the Jews being responsible for the French egineers in Pak deaths was one too many.

Didn't they teach you during instruction that sometimes you need to have doubts, etc ?

Sorry GAG, when people sneak, they'd better be professionals. I may put you on ignore...?

Bush Condemns Terror Bombing in Russia

WASHINGTON (AP) - The bombing of Victory Day celebrations in Russia was an act of terrorism and that the United States was saddened and angered by the violence, President Bush said today. ``Terrorism and the killing of innocents can never be condoned or justified,'' Bush said in a statement released at the White House. A remote-controlled bomb shattered a holiday parade today in the Russian town of Kaspiisk near Chechnya, killing at least 36 people and injuring about 150. No one claimed responsibility, but regional officials blamed Islamic militants who have organized previous attacks in the Russian Federation's republic of Dagestan.
