So sad. I've been to Varna, Bulgaria in 1995. The people there were friendly and their economy was on the upswing. They, the people of Bulgaria, don't strike me as the terrorist type. I wonder what's the status of their muslim immigration to their country?

Interesting read. Seems muslims from terrorist hotbed nations have been heading there in the past ten years.

Yep, and I just saw the CNN article on the 40th anniversary of the Munich games massacre so now I know what the OP was getting at.

It is HIGHLY likely this was done to commemorate the Munich killings.

Tsar Nicholas and the Russian royal family were murdered by antichrist bolsheviks on July 17, 1918.
The day after, July 18, more Russian royalty were murdered; and an infant Putyatin Prince was baptized.

As if blowing up a bus full of unarmed tourists was an act of great bravery. Terrorism is a coward's way of fighting and deserves no respect what so ever. They are dangerous pests and should be hunted and killed where ever they are.

Interesting you would bring that up.

The Munich massacre was in September; but it was during the summer olympics...
which begin again in London on July 27.

Medvedev will be attending the opening ceremony [Medvedev was also the name
of one of the bolsheviks guards who murdered the Tsar of Russia.]

Almost as brave as waking up a family - father, mother and five children - in the middle of the night,
taking them to the basement, then gunning down and bayoneting them to death.
