As for those who have no brains or backbone and will now whine: negotiate, give in. Then you are clueless, no less then clueless, you are selfish and evil. Why? Because by giving in to evil, you commit evil, you condemn other innocents to the same fate that you had. Danegeld is great, for the Danes, sucks for those who now can't get rid of the Danes.
For the lefty Russian critics who think that the US is some saint who will always get its citizens out by making nice with the enemy because US citizen lives are more important then US foreign policy or the US as a whole, you are clueless. The US is not stupid enough to negotiate with terrorists, just like Russian, Britian (for now), Italy, etc. Spain negotiated, nay, Spain turned into a true whore and allowed itself to be raped by the islamics and yet last week another islamic cell was busted getting ready to remind Spain why it's a terrorist's biatch. Spain and France and all these other gutless peoples are like battered wives: the keep going back to their batterers thinking if they just give in, next time will be different: this is a sick pathology and enough people in Russia, the US, and other nations also have it (anything but face the hard choice of fighting for your survival): thankfully in nations such as Russia and the US, the adults are in charge.
One of the terrorists in the theater was with an official Russian delegation on a trip abroad.
I have to check the details but I posted it some weeks ago.
He boasted of his role in the attack, if memory serves me, and then died in a big car accident.
Stop excusing the islamic terrorists, it's sickening.
What are you talking about?
I am saying that someone with a position in the Russian government may have been with the terrorists. That is nothing to do with excusing anything.
I have to find the report again.
Khanpash Terkibayev
I think the report may be here:

Ms. Gubareva's statement:
A chto kasaetsya bezdokazatel'nosti moikh slov... Pochti polgoda posle ehtogo koshmara ya kopalas' v gazetakh tekh dney, prosmatrivala videozapisi, razgovarivala s byvshimi zalozhnikami. No ya zhe ne mogu vse ehti materialy, na osnove kotorykh sdelala svoy vyvod, rassylat' po internetu! :-)Ms Gubareva also sent the following links to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, which I haven't had time to nit-pick. Anyone up for it?Na primer, ya videla takuyu videos"emky, zhurnalist NTV rasskazyval o shturme, za kotorym on sledil s balkona sosednego doma. Ryadom s nim byl "al'fovets". Obrashchayu tvoe vnimanie - ehto bylo DO tak nazyvaemogo razminirovaniya zdaniya. Zhurnalist obratil vnimanie na to, kak nebrezhno pinayut spetsnazovtsy poyasa shakhidok, sprosil u al'fovtsa - pochemu? Tot otvetil - skoree vsego tam mylyazhi. Poluchaetsya, chto spetsnazovtsy ZNALI, chto vrzyvchatki tam net, a tol'ko mulyazhi? Ved' vneshne ehti mulyazhi ne otlichalis' ot nastoyashchikh.
Na odnoy iz ehtikh zapisey ya videla, kak Vasil'ev (zam. nachal'ka shtaba) delal zayavlenie o tom, chto pogibshikh net. My razdobyli videozapisi shturma, peredelali ee Ane Politkovskoy. V "Novoy gazete" poyavilis' po ehtomu povodu stat'i, odna iz nikh nazyvalas' "Zachem ona v nego strelyala?"
Ya govoryu - zachem ubili vsekh terroristov ne iz lyubvi k nim, a po toy prostoy prichine, kotoraya pochemu-to ne dokhodit do opponentov, khotya ya ee nazyvayu - oni mogli dat' pokazaniya ob organizatorakh ehtogo terakta. No komu-to bylo vygodno, chtoby svideteley ne ostalos'. Tol'ko ne nado govorit' "mogli vzorvat' sonnye" - fignya! raz ne vzorvali, poka ne byli sonnymi, to ne mogli. I ne nado mne govorit', chto raz byl edinstvennym i neobkhodimym sredstvom - v postanovlenii prokuratury o nevozbuzhdenii dela protiv spetssluzhb est' slova o tom, chto terroristy otstrelivalis' (boyus' oshibit'sya) ne to 20, ne to 40 minut iz 8 pistoletov (a pistolety byli tol'ko u zhenshchin) iz 13 avtomatov. To est' effektivnost' primeneniya gaza byla menee 50%, i sootvetstvenno vozrastala, kak by osvobozhdala zalozhnikov. Ya ne znayu, ehto ne moya professiya - ya inzhener-ehkolog. No odno ya znayu tochno - na predlozhenie terroristov otpustit' inostrannykh zalozhnikov ya postaralas' kak mozhno skoree zabrat' lyudey v otlichie ot shtaba, kotoriy sdelal zayavlenie o tom, chto oni protiv ehtogo... I sdelal vse, chtoby ehtogo ne sluchilos' - ya razgovarivala so svoim poslom, ya ehto znayu.
"Regarding the lack of evidence for my words... I was digging through newspapers for almost a half-year after this nightmare. I watched video recordings and spoke with former hostages. I cannot, however, send through the internet all the materials upon which I base my conclusion! :-)
"For example, I saw one such video: a journalist from NTV was discussing the assault which he followed from the balcony of the building next door. Next to him was an "alpha". Pay attention - this was BEFORE the so-called de-mining of the building. The journalist noticed how carelessly the special forces soldiers were cutting off the shakhidki's (female suicide bombers) belts, so he asked an alpha group member - why? The soldier replied that these were merely fakes. It turns out that the special forces KNEW that there were no explosives, but only fakes? The outward appearance of these fakes were obviously identical to real ones.
"On one of the recordings I saw Vasilev (representative of the chief of staff) declare that there were no deaths. We took the recordings of the assault, sent them to Anna Politkovskaya. "Novaya Gazeta" wrote articles about this, one of which is called "Why did she shoot him?"(English translation: here)
"I will say why they killed all of the terrorists, not out of love from them, but for a simple reason which hasn't occurred to my opponents: the terrorists could have given testimony about the organizors of the terror act. It was to someone's advantage to make sure that there were no witnesses. Don't go saying that "they could have blown up while sleeping" - balderdash! If they didn't blow up while they were awake, then they couldn't. And don't tell me that it was necessary, that it was the only way - there is the testimony at the attorney general's office regarding a criminal case brought against the special forces, in which it was stated that the terrorists fired for 20-40 minutes from 8 pistols (only the women had pistols) and 13 assault rifles. The effectiveness of the gas was less than 50%, and was dissipating as they freed the hostages. I don't know the details about the gas, it's not my profession - I am an ecologic engineer. But one thing I know for sure: the terrorists' offer to release the foreign hostages, I found out from people who associated with the headquarters, that the headquarter had declared that they were against this. I also spoke with my embassy, so I know this."

Have at it, and none of this Daffy Duck "You're Despicable" nonsense. That's not a debating technique.
Truth has nothing to do with the objective world, but rather is related to spirit. Truth is something present and immediate.
>>>>"I will say why they killed all of the terrorists, not out of love from them, but for a simple reason which hasn't occurred to my opponents: the terrorists could have given testimony about the organizors of the terror act.
What about intentional disinformation while an investigation is occuring? That is normal to misreport for propaganda to confuse the enemy.
Personally, I don't think it's that cut and dried. "Russia" is a country, she doesn't do anything. People do. Leaders come and go, and often the most well-meaning leader has underlings who do not carry out their mission as the leader wanted.
I don't think V.V.Putin is the anti-Christ, or a killer as some suggest. He's a product of his environment, which would be a challenge for the strongest from any nation to survive in, let alone thrive.
The middle-ranked byurokratiya has been Russia's scourge since the days of Peter the Great. Certain parlimentarians order renumeraton of Beslan victims, and nasty mid-level bureaucrats make the grieving victims jump through hoops. Is this the fault of the top man in the Kremlin? Partially, since he has not reformed the system. But who can? Putin's systematic reforms are always judged in the worst possible light, by those who look for commies under the bed every night. Thank God we aren't running things ;-)
Nord-ost was a tragedy, but the blame is squarely with the terrorists. However: what nation would not demand an inquiry into the matter? If a sheriff solved a hostage situation at the local bank and ended up with 20% casualties, he'd certainly be answering questions.
Nord-ost indirectly led to Beslan, because no one learned from their mistakes. Lots of guns and tanks, no psychology.
Could you take a look at these video captures, and tell me what you see? I stare and stare and I can't tell what is going on. I thought I saw a dangling chad on one ;-)
I looked at the stills. I couldn't see enough to know what was actually happening.
Peter, all, I really could care less if a prisoner was shot. I lend no thought to it. It doesn't make me suspicious of Putin, nor of the situation that happened in the theatre.
Here in the US, we give the prisoners flu shots instead of the sick and old. We should shoot more prisoners.
Yowzas! That's so un-PC of you. ;-) I'm afraid I'm going to have to cancel your assignment as guidance counselor at Abu Graib.

Ding ding ding ... we have a winner!
A study of the McVeigh and Davidian trials -- if not also the spiriting out of the country of those individuals who knew Bin Laden the best (save for his one-time CIA handlers and such) -- suggests that this sort of thing is not encouraged here either.
Though we have yet to prove ourselves quite as efficient as the Former Soviets and almost seem to relish the circus-circuses -- such as Little Elian or Chandra Levy -- used to distract and debride the brains of Americans in between Key Events precipitating the usual "constitutional" Crises.
Please excuse the errors in my post. It was very late, and I did not notice them at the time.
It's getting clearer.
I can't see the pictures. sorry, but all there is for me
is some light and mostly dark.
