jayme0227 writes "Terrorists detonated a bomb at Moscow's busiest airport on Monday, killing 35 people and wounding another 152, Russian authorities said. President Dmitry Medvedev, who called the bombing a terrorist attack, ordered additional security at Moscow's other airports and transportation hubs, and Moscow police went on high alert in case of additional bombs." According to the NY Times, "The airport remained open on Monday evening, and passengers continued to flow through the hall where the bomb had exploded."

      It was Israel.

      Russia just signalled it would join the list of countries that recognise a Palestinian state.

      Islamism is the excuse they use to hide the nature of the actor. It's how this little sliver of land exerts its will over the nations of the world. Blow up some trains in Britain and Spain, with the implicit understanding that next time, it could be nuclear.

    I know it's still early, and there's no evidence, but there must be some kind of link, right?
