Wow, I hope these idiots understand this is not the way to get the sympathy of the world.
ITAR-Tass, citing regional emergency officials, said about 400 people including some 200 children were being held captive. A regional police official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the hostages had been herded into the school gymnasium.

President or not, I\'m surprised he hasn\'t been shot already.

When the Chechnyan took the Moscow theatre hostage, the Russian special forces used "sleeping gas".. After the gas had taken effect they moved in, and shot the terrorists in their sleep. :cool:
Too bad 120 civilians died because of the gas. :(
Update on the situation: They have started negotiations. The terrorists claim they will blow the school up if the Russian Army refuses to leave Chechnya. 12 civilians have died so far.
Putin is in a hot spot. If the children get killed I wonder if he will sit as firm as he’s doing now.
-
I can\'t say I am too familiar with the background here.
Why does Putin not want to grant the Chechnyan\'s sovereignity?
-
Same reason why Lincoln didn\'t want the Southern States to secede? I don\'t know really.
EDIT : I think Chechnya has oil.

I brought it up because I couldn\'t understand why they weren\'t able to break off when the rest of the Soviet Union collapsed.

Many ethnic minorities exist in what is left of Russia. If Russia permitted independence, speculation is that these other groups would do the same.
Russia grew under the Tsars influence to encompass many different cultures which now exist alongside the predominate Russian culture.

Putin probably just wants to keep Russia all one country and not worry about separating states. Plus, if that happens, others may want to seceed. I\'m actually amazed that Chechnya still has people. Hasn\'t Russia already pretty much demolished everything?

Rapport (SVT) said two large explosion has been heard inside the building. :mad:
-
Oppps! There a re a few more then first estimated. More then 1000 (some say 1500?) are being heled! :eek: .. Its going to be a bloodbath :(
On its third day and no food or water has gone into the building..
-
The Russian Elite Forces have taken the school! :)
-
Some of the Terrorists have escaped and there is now fighting round a near by house.
Lets hope that the Russian Special forces can Wipe the skum bags out.
ALL of them.

Russian Hostage Crisis Not Over
Friday, September 03, 2004
BESLAN, Russia — A hostage crisis at a school in southern Russia in which more than 100 people have been killed has not ended despite previous reports, FOX News has learned. Officials said as many as three terrorists were still holding children captive even after soldiers charged into the building on Friday.
Security officials told FOX News three terrorists remained blockaded in the basement of the school, possibly including the leader of the operation, and that they were still holding an unknown number of children.
At least 100 bodies were found Friday in the sweltering school gymnasium, where many of the hostages were being held. A correspondent for the Interfax news agency reported that some were killed when the building\'s roof collapsed from an explosion before the main assault began.
Hundreds more were wounded during the siege and subsequent raid by Russian soldiers. Officials said the number of injured was more than 400, at least half of them children.
Other casualties were reported when militants opened fire on hostages as they fled the building and in fighting that went on for several hours afterward. The regional health minister reported that 409 people were wounded, including at least 218 children.
Officials also told FOX News that 10 of the 20 terrorists killed by Russian soldiers were Arabs.
Disgusting

Atleast this is almost over and the Russian special forces acted swiftly. I was thinking, why didn\'t they try and pump the school with gas again, except this time with enough antidote. Maybe the terrorists prepared. Either way, a lot of people would have died.
-
Christ this is Getting worse...
All the main networks in the Uk have been covering the sotry all day (and for the Past 2 as well).
it now looks like 3 of them are holed up in the schooll basement with some childeren.
One of them is thought to be the Terrorest leader.
-
I hope all these terrorists are killed and Putin strikes back hard.
-
FINALLY its over. But the death toll is at 200. This really is a tragedy.

I dunno. What especially pisses me off about these people is that they did this to children. This will greatly backfire on them. No one will back their country now.
-
Yeah i just read about it (in more detail) right now. 70 percent of the school is composed of children and they say something around 1200 people might have been in there or something? Rediculous.
-
death toll rising topping 350.

Its as many as 600-700 now. Sofar they have about 500 at the morge, and some 200 are still missing.
Did you see the image of the terrorist which was beat to death by a group of civilians? Nice.
