School Siege: Russia Grieves for Children and Putin Vents His Fury: "'Why don't you meet Osama bin Laden, invite him to Brussels or to the White House and engage in talks, ask him what he wants and give it to him so he leaves you in peace?' he said, according to The Guardian. 'You find it possible to set some limitations in your dealings with these bastards, so why should we talk to people who are child-killers?'"

I'm not sure who from our country suggested that the Russian government have talks with the Chechen separatists after last week's tragedy, but whoever it was has some nerve. Quite frankly, I don't blame Putin for being pissed off.
