CNN: Kidnapped Russian Diplomats in Iraq Have Been Executed

Baghdad. In a statement published in Internet by the organization Mudjahidin Shura announced that the Russian diplomats had been executed, CNN reports. The info has not been confirmed until now from any other sources, the Echo of Moscow Radio announced.

Earlier the kidnappers of the diplomats sent an ultimatum to Moscow to release its troops from Chechnya and to release all Muslims from Russian prisons.

The Russian Ministry of Foreign affairs is working to check the info.

Had Moscow been the target on 9/11/01, you think Putin would have given up the hunt for OBL?

5. Eh, he blamed that school massacre on Al Qaeda.

Even though it was obviously Chechnyan. I don't think their looking that hard for bin LAden.

6. Not too cynical

I thought the same thing. Russia has resisted involvement in Iraq, I could see Bush seeing how he is struggling in the polls here pressuring the Russians for more involvement and possible troops to let some of ours come home so he can seem like he has a plan for withdrawal. Not to mention have a partner he's much more interested in heaping the blame onto when everything there fails.
