MOSCOW - The head of a parliamentary commission investigating the September hostage seizure at a school in southern Russia said there is evidence of involvement by a foreign intelligence agency, the Interfax news agency reported Saturday.

The statement was the latest of several in which Russian officials and politicians have alleged foreigners were involved in the Sept. 1-3 attack on a school in the southern town of Beslan, which ended in bloody chaos and left more than 330 people dead, many of them children.

"For the moment the evidence that we have of this involvement is indirect, so I consider it premature to name exactly which special service it is," Interfax quoted commission head Alexander Torshin as saying. Russians refer to intelligence and security agencies as special services.

Torshin, deputy speaker of the Federation Council, Russia's upper parliament house, said that "when we gather enough convincing evidence, we won't hide it."

Russian officials initially said the attackers killed at the school included nine or 10 Arabs, but they never provided any proof. Shamil Basayev, a Chechen warlord who claimed responsibility for the raid, said his militants who seized the school included two Arabs. [Islam is the culprit] And if an 'intelligence agency' was involved - could the country that hosts the 'agency' be held responsible for damages? It would certainly serve a blow to the 'cause' of 'terrorists' - no? [Nevertheless - someone owes Belsan a whole new school and damages for great pain and suffering] {includes 'graphic' images that some might not want to see]

Russian President Vladimir Putin and other officials have cast the hostage seizure as part of a war against Russia by international terrorists — not a product of the Kremlin's military campaign in Chechnya, [which the 'bias leftists' have been preaching for a decade now] where officials said several of the attackers were from. [The Moscow theater that was taken hostage by Muslims - was another attack on Russia - that the media prefers to forget]

Many Russian officials have accused foreign countries, particularly in the West, of double standards on terrorism. [That's not a lie] In a televised address after the attack, Putin suggested some Cold War throwbacks in the West who are bent on weakening Russia - aid terrorists {devout Muslims who are bent on carrying out the commands of their Koran {SEE for yourselves - straight out of the mouth of allah]

Omar Bakri Mohammed, the spiritual leader of the extremist sect al-Muhajiroun based in Britain - said that he supports hostage-taking at British schools if carried out by terrorists [Muslims] with a just cause.  [There is NO just cause]

What would tomorrow's world headlines look like - if ANY group of non-Muslims took a whole school of Muslim children hostage [about 1200 of them] in a Muslim nation - where one third of them ended up dead when all was finished?

Whose fault would it be?

According to Omar Bakri Mohammed's way of thinking - it would be the fault of the Muslim nation who suffered the attack - for the minds of the non-Muslims - because the Muslims provoked them into doing so.

If that is not an exceedingly wicked twisted way of thinking - then what is?

Mat 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

Let Omar Bakri Mohammed be included among those responsible for the GREAT immeasurable damage done to all of Beslan.
