TERROR IN RUSSIA - AT 12:30 P.M. ET:  From The New York Times:

MOSCOW —The cause of the crash of one of Russia’s most illustrious trains was identified on Saturday as a homemade bomb that went off on the tracks between Moscow and St. Petersburg, killing more than 25 people, wounding scores of others and raising fears of a new era of terrorism here.

Officials called the explosion on Friday the worst terrorist attack in Russia in years, outside volatile Muslim parts of the North Caucasus region, which includes Chechnya. There were no immediate credible claims of responsibility.

COMMENT:  Once again we see the vulnerability of modern societies to terrorism.  And yet, we here in America are returning to a pre 9-11 mentality, under the tutelage of The One and his chief lawyer, Eric Holder.  It is only a matter of time before a price is paid.
