Suicide bomber hits Moscow airport....
Quote:
A suicide bomber killed at least 35 people at Russia's busiest airport on Monday, state TV said, in an attack on the capital that bore the hallmarks of militants fighting for an Islamist state in the North Caucasus region.
President Dmitry Medvedev vowed to track down and punish those behind the bombing, which also injured over 150 people, during the busy late afternoon at Moscow's Domodedovo airport. The dead included some foreigners.
Islamist rebels have vowed to take their bombing campaign from the North Caucasus to the Russian heartland in the year before presidential elections, hitting transport and economic targets. They have also leveled threats at the 2014 Winter Olympics, scheduled for the Black Sea resort town of Sochi, a region some militants consider "occupied."

Two observations...
1) Who could have imagined that it'd occur to some terrorists that they needn't wait to get on the plane to cause quite a ruckus?

if we learned nothing else from COD Modern Warfare 2 it's that one needn't get on the plane to cause quite a ruckus.

2) Does this mean that the terrorists hate Russia because the Russians are such beacons of freedom?
