Breaking: 100+ Russians Killed In Explosion At Night Club


Holy shit. This is a breaking report (thanks to the alert from chidudewhotrades) from Fox News:


More Than 100 Reportedly Killed in Russian Nightclub Explosion


DEVELOPING: More than 100 people are reportedly dead after an explosion at a Russian nighclub in Perm, according to Reuters.
There were no immediate reports on the possible cause of the explosion early Saturday.
There were about 200 people in the club at the time, ITAR-Tass said, citing a police source.
Perm is about 700 miles east of Moscow.
Last month, a train derailment caused by a chemical bomb killed 26 people.

Okay folks...the bets are on - was this an "explosion" from a ruptured gas main or was this an islamic terror bombing?

I'll try to keep up on this story tonight - if and when this is determined to be islamic terrorists bombing this club with this many fatalities, I am certain that we are going to see the Russian government unleash the hounds on them. This could be one unbelievable weekend in Russia.

Stay tuned...I'll have more up later.
UPDATE:
CNN here is reporting that it was possibly a fireworks demo gone bad:
State-run television station Russia Today reported that a fireworks display
gone wrong may have caused the explosion in the Perm club, which contained 200
people at the time.
