Beslan, Russia

This is a rather sad story in Russia. At this point, the number of deaths of hostages seems to be up in the air. I'll give the Russians this, they don't mess around with negotiation once it is obvious negotiations are futile, but those kids have gone through hell.

The media needs to start calling a spade a spade, though. These aren't rebels, they aren't separatists, they're terrorists. Because of their tactics, what they want to accomplish should be completely discredited.
