RUSSIA REAPS WHAT IT SOWS

Monday’s bombing of a bus in the Soviet city of Volgograd, Sunday’s terrorist attack at the Volgograd train station and last Friday’s car bombing in Pyatigorsk ought to have taught Russian authorities a lesson about not supporting countries who support terrorism, but that’s probably not going to happen. The Soviets have been more interested in thwarting American anti-terrorism efforts than in becoming an active partner in the drive to stop terrorism at its source. In their zeal to give the United States a black eye, the Russians have continued to ignore the fact that we are fighting a common enemy. As a result, thirty-four Russians died this past weekend in terrorist attacks and scores more were wounded. Sadly, Russia has reaped what it has sown.
