I know that there has been some things reported on news recently. The hostages in Beslan, they still are being held. The two planes that have gone down. (And we will be traveling Aeroflot in a week and half, wonderful). The sad thing is, there is so much internal, goverment-allowed terrorism that is still existing, that is thriving, with the corruption and criminals in positions of high power. People still being 'silenced' in so many ways. It is terrifying. I am greatful to be in this country, although my family remains at home. I know that this does not have to do with sexual abuse. But there is abuse that is overlooked and ignored every day, of every form. Some even sponsored by the 'police' and 'goverment'.  I suppose I should watch what I say, even here, yes? Leosha

Fear of terrorism is not hard to understand.

It is deeply disturbing to see innocent little one's caught up in all this, I was hoping and praying that they all would be safe, but sadly, some have been taken. Please think of those who did not make it, and spare also a thought for their families, who must be in Hell right now I pray ste

The first thing I heard on the car radio when I left for work this morning was the report of the explosions at the school. The news got worse all day long. I spent a good part of the day in "la la land," like after the attacks in New York.
Only the worst kind of cowardly animals would deliberately set out to hurt children. This is not a political act, some freedom fighters or the like. This is just evil.

Leosha,
My heart, prayers and good thoughts are with you and your countrymen. The struggle for civility is a hard one, even here.
Peace to you and Andrei as you prepare for your uncoming trip.
We will uphold in the most positive way,until you return,
David

What a horrible nightmare (hell, those are just beginning right?)!
I feel at one with so many, without making comparisons.
