USA and Russia should come together to defeat this enemy - Readers' letters on Beslan hostages - 09/02/2004 10:47

Dear Russian Citizens,
I, along with countless Americans, mourn your loss from the senseless cowardly attacks on your airliners and metro station, and pray that the latest siege of a school will end without loss of life from any hostages or other innocent victims. Our liberal press, particularly the Associated Press, legitimizes the group responsible by referring to them simply as "Chechen rebels", but the majority of Americans know them for what they are: extremist Islamic terrorists.

Grown men and women armed with bombs and guns have chosen to hold children as hostages. Children, who have neither the ability to fight back, nor the training, are now being pulled into a radical Moslem twisted mentality of a war of god only knows what. More...
