Badge, hp, I’ve grown weary of the “Amish” jokes, when we all know it was really the Rastafarians who did this. Along with their friends, the Inuit!

We need to stick with the Amish because we all know their feelings cannot be hurt, they'll never even read it.

George Bush at it again. Wonder if Cheney delivered the package to the airport?

MOSCOW – An explosion ripped through the international arrivals hall at Moscow's busiest airport on Monday, killing 31 people and wounding about 130, Health Ministry officials said. The state RIA Novosti news agency, citing sources in law enforcement, said the explosion at Domodedovo Airport may have been caused by a suicide bomber....Could this be blamed on Sarah or the Tea Pary?

Greg Palkot just mentione the updated casualies. he also said the blast may have had the equivalent force of 10,000 lbs of TNT.

That size of a bomb would have taken out the airport and left one hell of a crater. The OKC bomb was estimated to be the equivalent of 5,000 lbs of TNT.

“Well that quantity of explosives certainly did not arrive in the passenger’s baggage.”

Most, if not all, ground employees at US airports do not go through security. It will be interesting to see if a DME employee is responsible.

Despite what you think about Russians or their involvement with Iran, innocent people... mothers, daughters, fathers, sons were just killed.... Regular people minding their own business.

Let us pray, not speculate or make fun.

Boy, you’re not kidding. All you need to know about how the Russians deal with terrorists, you can learn by reading about the Moscow theatre siege several years back. They pumped that gas into the theatre knowing full well that it could kill the hostages as well as the terrorists, and then withheld information on the composition of the gas from medical personnel, leading to dozens of civilian deaths.

Pootie and the Russians do not play around when it comes to Chechens or Muslim terrorism. Not at all.

Meanwhile, Russia will agree to give Iran more weapons.

Iran's leadership consists of a different "brand" of Muslims.

Al Qaeda is hated universally by everyone, including the Chinese, Russians, Iranians, Hezbollah, and Hamas, among others.

Russians have been dealing with the zombie Muslims for a long time...this latest outrage is one in a long string of attacks.

Prayers for the victims.

More will be added, unfortunately, I imagine, before the end of the day.

Silver Lining: If this had happened in the US, HolyO and Big Sis would be praising the number, saying, "Hey, our security WORKED! It could have been 40 killed! Praise us for doing a great job here!!" /sarc

You don’t have to go through security to get to the baggage claim areas at the airports I’ve been to. A suicide bomber could access this area with no problem.
