In an earlier thread, JediForce wrote in part:

Why the news blackout in America ? I just don't understand it. Somebody in the administration needs to get out front on these Islamic attacks on Russia. Where is Homeland Security and why have they not at the very least mentioned that perhaps it might be a wise idea for people around schools to keep an eye open? It is amazing.

The hurricane did not kill 156+ children in a school. Islamic terrorists did in a quiet town in Russia.

And the silence is deafening.

I sure am glad you wrote that, and well written it is, by the way.

My wife and I are absolutely apoplectic about the msm, Bush, et al., treating this as a non-event. It takes a lot to get me riled up, but I am now. The lack of national outrage over this makes me wonder what the future holds. I haven't heard a peep out of anyone with any stature. This should have been the headlines in every single paper, every single day, since the story broke. Included should have been the pictures from the scene, so the doubters could see, once again, the real face of islam.

I am so mad I could chew nails. We suck.

I Agree,It was treated like a nonevent

"But instead of learning the correct lesson that the current horrors are the result of such a failure to act, the west has succumbed to historical amnesia over those previous attacks. It is convulsed instead by hysteria over the war on Iraq, with absurd conspiracy theories about Zionists and ‘neo-conservatives’ surfacing instead almost daily in the mainstream media and driving out rational debate.

And so the terrorists carefully calibrate their atrocities to exploit such weakness, confident that for every outrage it is not they but America which will be blamed. Those whipping up this hysteria, therefore, have blood on their hands."

Those who blame US - howarddean, algore, kosinich, tedkennedy, michaelmoore, and on and on -

THEY "...have blood on their hands."

I'm sure State has been on the line with Moscow for days, and Bush has a "let's cooperate more" proposal to bring up with Putin.

Just because nothing is happening in front of a camera doesn't mean nothing is happening period. The plan may be to wait until Russia agrees to increase WOT cooperation, and then wrap everything into one announcement.

[P.O.E.]

Why the news blackout in America ?

My theory? It would upset the tolerance applecart.

The Powers That Be would rather sacrifice a few thousand innocents each year than truly confront the enemy and take the political heat.
