After Airport Massacre, Russian Media Points To Modern Warfare 2

After I saw the news yesterday that the busiest airport in Russia was bombed by terrorists, leaving 35 people dead in its wake and 180 more injured, I knew the media would draw comparisons between the incident and Infinity Ward’s shoot.
