Moscow under Terrorist Attack

Moscow was hit with two subway bombings during the height of rush hour, the bombings were 30 minutes apart.  At this point 37 are confirmed dead with a dozen more wounded.  Russia has a long history of terrorism from separatists groups, dating as far back as Stalin's time. Chechens are very loosely tied to al Qaeda.  They are attempting to break off from Russia and form an Islamic state, although much of the Chechen population is Russian Orthodox.  This is sixth such attack since 2004. 

Stalin Making a Comeback? Moscow's May Day Celebrations

On May 9, the Russians will be celebrating the 65th anniversary of the end of the war against Hitler.  To mark the day, someone has decided it would be a good thing to plaster the city of Moscow with giant posters of none other than Stalin. 

Let's see, he killed millions of his own people through outright murder and famine, he created the Gulags; which are responsible for about 1.7 million deaths, and was responsible for forced deportation and resettlements.  What's not to celebrate?
