Two explosions in Moscow subway kill 20+; officials suspect suicide bombers
If the Russians are correct that these were suicide attacks, this would be yet another indication that aiding the Iranian jihad is not winning the Russians any points with the Chechen jihadists. "Twin Subway Blasts Kill at Least 20 in Moscow," by Clifford J. Levy in the New York Times, March 29 (thanks to all who sent this in):
MOSCOW -- Huge explosions during morning rush hour in two subway stations in central Moscow killed more than 20 people on Monday, officials said, raising fears of a renewal of terrorism here.
The causes of the blasts were not immediately clear, but the government said it suspected suicide bombers, Russian news agencies reported.
The subway system, one of the world's most extensive, had been subjected to attacks related to the separatist war in Chechnya in the early part of the last decade.
Officials said the first explosion Monday occurred at 7:50 a.m. in the Lubyanka subway station, killing people both on the platform and aboard an incoming train. Numerous others were injured....
About 40 minutes later, another explosion occurred in the second car of a train at the Park Kultury station, officials said. The number of casualties was not immediately known....

Note: No, the "indication that aiding the Iranian jihad is not winning the Russians any points" is similar to the Christmas Day attempt by the suicide bomber from Yemen not winning any points for Obama's administration for being soft on Islam. The Ft. Hood Islamic "General" is another sure sign that being soft on Islamic terrorists is not winning any points for Obama, while he continues to sympathize and contributes MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to Abbas and the Palestinians organization, while they, in return continue to terrorize and shoot rockets into Israel. Hamas has stepped up their murdering attempts towards Israel over the past few weeks, killing two IDF soldiers on Friday. What is happening in America, Russia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, U.K, ..... is a sure sign that our world "leaders" should begin taking the Iranian madman seriously! BeeSting
This is the common enemy that Obama and Medvedev are ignoring. My condolences to my Russian comrades. It's time we fight this common enemy of our freedom.
It's now at least 37 murdered in cold blood by Muslims following Mohammeds cult of murder. And wherever you get Muslims, you get terrorism. 9/11, London, Madrid, Bali, Beslan, Mumbai, Moscow, and heaven knows how many in the Philippines, Thailand, Israel and Nigeria. And still the apologists parrot the well-worn 'religion of peace' mantra. Will Obama blame this one on 'conflict between Israel and the so-called Palestinians' and tell us that if Israel gave up more land, we wouldn't see our troops killed and passengers blown up on the Moscow Metro.
I saw this in the news. When I saw that there was a second explosion, I was pretty damned sure as to what the cause was... islam. The koran.
mohammed (Piss Be Upon Him) the false prophet made a killing machine to benefit himself, and it just keeps on killing centuries after its creator died...like a monster from a horror flick.
The monster must die. The slaves must be freed from the monsters grasp.
Death to islam.
Free the slaves.
The suicide bombers were women apparently.
Plenty of male virgins for them in heaven.
Of course Islam had something to do with this. Other groups of people don't go around blowing themselves up. If they do, it happens as rarely as the pimple growing on my arse.
To say that the Muslims' contribution to civilisation is completely worthless is to overvalue them. Their influence is in all respects totally negative and destructive.
As 'Jihadwatch' has correctly pointed out many times, the Chechen jihad is not merely a local, or nationalist conflict, but part of a global Islamic jihad:

sean, thank you very much for that link. It is one of the better articles summarizing the differences between the West and Islam, and why the latter is a failure in everything that it touches.
One of the links in that article brought a smile to my face and makes a point better than words...
