International reactions to the 2012 Burgas bus bombing

I'm horrified by this article, not because of any views that might be expressed over the bus bombing, but the fact that some 90% of this article is a quotefarm of soundbites, indignant comments, empty rhetoric and "mee toos" from overly self-important politicians from countries without any connection at all to the incident. The summary section of the main bus bombing article could be expanded a little, with content of the 'Bulgaria' section of this, and then this could be deleted without loss of meaningful content.

Summarize, merge, and redirect to 2012 Burgas bus bombing. Is it worth noting in the main article that multiple politicians, heads of state, and similar have expressed condolences? Yes. But do we need a list of every single person's condolence or reaction to the bombing? No. This is the sort of thing that can be summed up with an all encompassing sentence. The lead sentence in the article actually sums it up adequately without need to detail each person: "The international reactions to the 2012 Burgas bus bombing, which killed 5 Israeli tourists and the bus driver in Burgas, Bulgaria, included condemnations and condolences by multiple national governments and supranational organizations." If and I state if one or two of the people make comments that become an even bigger kerfuffle, then those individual statements can be briefly mentioned in the parent article. Other than that, there is literally no need to post each reaction. It's pretty much par for the course that people will respond in a certain manner to bombings or anything that harms or kills people in this manner. This is not an encyclopedic entry and is largely unnecessary.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:49, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to 2012 Burgas bus bombing, all terrorist attacks result worldwide condemning messages which all look more or less same.--Staberinde (talk) 15:33, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to 2012 Burgas bus bombing. No need for a separate article....William 16:23, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTINHERITED. The event itself may have been notable but that does not necessarily apply to reactions. 2012 Burgas bus bombing#Reactions could do with expanding as suggested but most of the included quotes are unnecessary.
