"Chechen separatists"

They are not Islamic Terrorists? Oh, that's right, CNN called them "freedom fighters" or "rebels." On Reuters they were students.Anything but Muslim fanatics and murderers.

Why don't we all have a group hug and call them:

Those Wacky Pranksters :-)

I agree. The media's collective butt-covering for worldwide fanatical Islam has reached absurd proportions. For instance, it appears that unless some whack job in this country has marching orders signed by Osama Bin Laden himself, any mayhem he does is an "isolated incident" unconnected with militant Islam (either that, or Gulf War service and the NRA are to blame).

so well said, and if I may add, liqidation of wacky pranksters is a kind and gentle way of improving a bad situation.

Seriesly though...

The TERRORISTS Chechens' audacious raid, less than three miles from the Kremlin, ignited a fresh debate here about the wisdom of Russia's war in the breakaway Caucasian republic.
At a school where the relatives of the hostages had held their vigil, women could be seen crying and men praying as they waited to hear whether their loved ones would be coming home. When the relatives heard that Barayev was dead, they cheered and whistled their approval.

And would that be a  debate  amongst the "everybody needs a hug" crowd that is so ridiculously pervasive in the media?     I sure as heck am not seeing  debate  here.   CHUMPS.
