Disinformation campaign in full swing

Disinformation is underway at the Independent to obscure the details of the terrorist assault on Russian schoolchildren and their parents so that their Leftist readers have plausible deniability of guilt by association.

2nd Paragraph.
Female 'suicide bombers' known as "black widows" were part of the terrorists at the school. This is yet unknown. Russia has not identified the women and may never be known as it is reported that the terrorist leader blew women up by remotely detonating their body bombs. We do know that in a previous terrorist attack two women who downed the Russian planes last week were not widows. They were part of a group of four from Chechyna, all four were either single or divorced.
Reason: The Left is particularly fond of labeling groups with commemorative dates or names that simultaneously identify and justify them by associating them with a cause. The mythology of the Black Widows.

3rd Paragraph.
What shadowy force and who thinks Russia is one of the worlds "sole nuclear powers"? Sole??? What planet do they live on?

4th Paragraph.
Hostages say they didn't see any Arabs and the terrorists spoke Russian. This, despite the fact that the brief video has one of the few voices, a non-Russian speaker and reports by survivors one chanting Muslim prayers. One of the terrorists was a black man, presumed to be "from Qatar." The writer does not say they have interviewed all the hostages; they infer it. But it is untrue. And then there was the captured "fighter" that appeared on television looked "heavily interrogated" despite the fact that photos of him does not show this.

I could go on, but the whole article is so wracked with innacuracies and misstatements that it's a waste of time.
