it all depends on the purpose of terrorists.
often become the victims of terror is the state structures.
including police.
Osama bin Laden attacked the Pentagon and killed 115 people there.
The Pentagon is probably the most secure and strengthen place of the US Army.

Three hours later and they have a shoot out with one of the suspects just a mile or two away from the scene of the shooting? The suspects have been trolling around the area that long in the same getaway vehicle? That makes no sense at all.

Obama has been bombing and predator drone killing terrorist for 7 years.
Bush didn't kill all the terrorist during his term and neither will Obama.
Your eyes are bigger than our guns.

:2 cents:

Those weren't gunmen though. They ran a plane into the Pentagon. No way they go into the Pentagon with guns blazing.

WTF is going on there right now? I've clicked various TV channels (DW, BBC, CNN, RT): they all showing the same picture of a black minivan and two armored police cars around it. They say they don't know is there is someone was inside or still inside. I don't understand that. If they are not sure, why don't they get into the minivan and check it out?

They are waiting. .. for the suspect in the SUV to die. Why take him into custody and give him medical attention?

They could of rigged the SUV to explode.. They are obviously gonna take their time checking things out.

They are claiming all 3 are in custody one of them is dead.. So they caught them else where from the SUV.

To ask him questions. Are those SWAT guys are real that cowardly to do their job? *facepalm*

Edit: "Police is not sure if there is another gunman in that car". Someone, please wake me up! :helpme You are SWAT, go storm it and try to get the survivors (if any) alive to beat the shit out of them and make the speak. You are being paid for that, cowards!

P.S. Watching it on BBC right now.

Nothing cowardly about it at all. They don't want to kill them, they want to arrest them.

Seems to me they aren't really in a defensive position at all - They are just standing there. Just being careful, that's all.

I write about what terrorists have no problem attacking fortified objects no matter how important they would not be.

:1orglaugh

Very sad :(

Have you seen how real police Spetsnaz acts when they want to storm a car with armed suspects to take them alive? We have a lot of Islamist terrorists in Caucasus region so it happens here very often (there is a ton of police operational videos on youtube). The police knows that those guys are usually armed not just with AK47, but they may be armed with grenades and RPG's. This doesn't stop them.

Jesus, I really don't understand what your SWAT is being paid for...

The machine can be mined. it may be a trap.

How many Chechen, Ingush and Dagestan cars that were stormed by police could be mined too? You live in Russia and you know that those Islamic radicals usually wear shahid belts. Have it stopped Spetsnaz from storming them? Tell me about at least one such a case.

The 3 bastards have killed 14 citizens and 17 were injured. What those SWAT guys are waiting for? Go get the mofos and make them speak!

at least the terrorists were always being chased by bush, even when bush was wrong. All obama been doing is safety war, not real war. so theyre not running anymore. theyre attacking now, on offense instead of defense. we need trump to go back on offense. hillary wont.

:(

Hispanic male, shaved head, orange shirt, camo pants.

2 of the 3 incidents in Australia we are calling terrorist attacks targeted Police at Police stations.

The only thing Bush ever chased was coffee while Cheney drew up his war plans. Chased terrorists, thats fucking hilarious.

Holy fuck here comes the drunk commie pinko fucktard to spew his Russian bullshit all over a thread that has ZERO to do with his vodka-fueled rants and sorry ass 4th world cuntry.

I wish someone would drop a tactical nuke directly onto wherever you post your lame propaganda posts from you Moscow meathead. Now put Putin's cock back in your mouth and STFU.

Crazy thing is if its Middle Eastern terrorist's, then there will be a ground invasion and billions spent, But if its just crazy locals, every one will just move on because its their democratic right to weapons and its an individuals problem.

As far as the police swats waiting, they have the gear at hand, so you use it, time is not of the issue except for the TV watchers.

I would not hurry to the car with bomb))

So the only thing I can see so far is that the US SWAT is absolutely useful in such situation. Useful and overpaid.

I feel for the killed and injured people of course. That's terrible. I just don't understand why the suspects in that car are still not arrested and questioned...

I would not too. We are not pro's and we are not paid for that.

Funny to watch the useless police going house to house looking for suspects but forgetting to look under cars or in cabins.

I wouldn't say it's funny, because "funny" can not be applied to this tragic situation. Personally I'm a bit shocked by the police feebleness.

Ok, feeble. Wrong terminology.

maybe the police should have trained by smashing beer bottles over their head first.

How do you know police aren't looking under cars or in cabins?

There were multiple gunmen with assault rifles, body armor and masks. They killed over 10 people and were not injured in any way. They fled, but only for a small distance, and then engaged police. It seems as if this was an operation.

Maybe a bottle or maybe a much harder thing. Something should be switched in their heads to make them act faster and be more certain. Sorry for such a rude comment, but I'm tired of watching at their silly moves around of that minivan during all that time.

I am watching the live feed.

Gunmen weren't entirely successful.

They left behind a few developmentally challenged people in this thread.

Why would the gunman be less then 2 miles from scene hours after they fled by suv? Sure hope swat didn't shoot some innocent people.

We all know they shoot first, think later.

So it could be just a regular drug dealer or an ethnic street gang member. As far I understand they are still not sure who was inside...
