Mass Murder on the Nevsky Express: Muslim and Fascist Groups Suspected as Russia Hunts Bombers
Russian investigators are hunting the bombers of the Nevsky Express luxury train, as reported here. At least 30 passengers were killed, with scores injured, in Friday's attack on the Moscow-to-St. Petersburg train that is popular with Russian businessmen and foreign tourists.
Muslim terrorists and neo-fascist, ultranationalist groups are suspected. Their common bond: intense hatred of the Russian state, the West, democracy, modernism and pluralism, Jews and other minorities.
