We know our news is not connecting dots... on purpose
So I will
1.- This was a command detonated bomb... it took a lot of work to get it in there under the noses of security... and the it was buried in the concrete smells to high haven... you think the ruskies did not have doggies go over the construction lookng for ahem, BOMBS?
2.- This attack was carried out on Victory Day, that is the day the Rusians won their struggle durign the Great Patriotic War against the Fascists... anybody care to tell me what they just told Putin?
3.- Ok separataist, shmetaratists... folks AQ has been involved in the fun and games there for far longer than Iraq... they know the Russians can be defeated, they did it in Afghanistan... so Al Qaida might be involved... you heard it here first before you have them claimiing responsibity (The Age of Sacred Terror, I do highly recomendit)
4.- Who was killed, since CNN is down playing it... the President who was put in there by Putin in very contested elections, welcome to a deepening nightmare for them. Oh did I mention the Commander of the Armies of the Caucasus... only a four star... I know nothing major, a nobody really.
Oh and the final point, and question...
Is this just part of the fun and games in Chechnya? Or is this truly the first shots of a far expanded war? In other words, did Woosely get his wish and this is WW III? He must be tickled pink over this... after all he expects us to win...

1. Not that this affects your hypothesis |
|
but in the UK, they're saying the general is still 'fighting for his life', having had a leg amputated. There is uncertainty over the fate of the commander of Russian troops in Chechnya, Gen Valery Baranov, who was also in the stadium at the time.
Officials have denied reports that he was killed by the blast and said he was fighting for his life in hospital.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/3697715.stm

2. I wish I could grasp the importance of this event |
|
Because I know that it may be the biggest thing that has happened yet in this year of Very Big Things. But what are the implications? A further acceleration of the Chechnya-Russia conflict? Or will that spill over into the general chaos that is gaining a lot of momentum in the Eurasian region?

3. I read that they think the landmine was buried in the concrete 3 years ago |
|
...during stadium renovations. Apparently, whoever set the bomb had been waiting 3 years for the right people to sit there at the right time.
