CNN is reporting that gravediggers in Beslan have been told to prepare 600 graves today, and to be ready to dig even more in the next few days. Six hundred graves, most of them for little children. In Beslan, parents are posting makeshift “missing” posters around the village, just like New Yorkers did after 9/11. It is breathtaking to see that gesture repeated again, so soon. Is it going to have to happen here before Americans wake up to the true nature of the threat posed by Islamic extremism? I’m afraid so, yes.
