80 Suicide Bombers Detected in Russia

Nikolai Patrushev, head of Russia's security service called FSB, announced last week that the government was able to unveil the plots of over 80 suicide bombers. Patrushev claims that although he cannot be precise in determining which countries they are from, the bombers clearly "had been trained on foreign soil to carry out attacks on Russia."

Russia has recently been the target for large terrorist attacks by the so-called suicide bombers. Patrushev states to the press that he recognizes the severe problem of terrorism and knows he must take drastic measures to increase the penalties for such bombers. Although the tactic has not been implemented, Patrushev suggested to legislature that confiscating the money and property of the bombers would perhaps deter them from committing the crimes. Patrushev also suggests that not only are foreign religious groups the main source of the suicide bombings, but also that the groups' governments are supporting the devilish crimes.

Patrushev believes he has taken the first step toward terminating terrorism, but that he will need the support of the Interior Minister and government for full security against the problem.
