We adopted our son from Russia 4 years ago. He is almost 5 now. I doubt he would have been in this school but just the thought. If this ploy works in Russia, will it find its way here? Our schools are more secure than Russian schools but still.
Father God, you who can do the impossible, protect these children, sustain them, may your Presence be with them. Cause a cloud to come onto the muslim terrists holing these children, cause a deep sleep to come upon them. Dear LORD do a wonder at this time as we are told you did of old. Bless the children, Father. In the precious name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
I'd get as many of the Islamic Terrorists family members, even their babies, and take them to the school so the terrorists can see them one last time before they all die.
Sounds cold I know, but negotiations don't work but these murdering thug Islamic Terrorists do understand death and force. If killing their family members doesn't work, oh well, there's just that many less to support future Islamic thug terrorists.
After the theatre tragedy, Putin should have wiped Chechnya off the map with an all-out offensive.
As another poster so eloquently put it, Putin has already played his scorched-earth card.
I watched it happening on Russian TV.
When the Russians went into Chechnya, they destroyed schools, apartment buildings, homes, hospitals, mosques, churches, synagogues, factories, warehouses, department and grocery stores, historical and heritage sites, all without prejudice.
I saw this while I was in Russia in January and March of 2002.
While the Europeons were wringing their hands over the "barbaric American" bombinb of Afghanistan, they didn't mention a word about what the Russians were doing in Chechnya.
Not that the Chechens didn't deserve it, mind, you.
They did.
Problem for Russia is that the Chechen Islamo-fascists found places to hide out and are waging their terror campaign from safe harbors in neighboring states.
It may be time for Putin to adopt the Bush doctrine.
If you ain't with us, you're against us.
Good idea.
Actually, from talking to my fiance in Kazan (Russia), the children and parents being held hostage are mainly moderate muslims.
Would that apply to State Dept's pro Chechen policies/statements?

I agree with you 100%.
The US State Department's support of the Chechens is a disgrace.
Somebody should tell them the "Cold War" ended in 1991.
CNN International has live coverage from Russia right now. Two explosions heard.
Putin doesn't f' around.
I don't know, but Sky News is calling them a "gang." Like some kind of 3rd rate street punks. Why not "terrorists"?
AMEN!
Why are the kids naked?
Concur. Putin used to be KGB direcotr, after all. Such people are not known for either their sublety or their restraint.
Who knows? Not that important.
We are at "War" with the zealots of the "religion of peace." The war has been raging (for a very long time.)
Things looking ugly ping.
Sorry, Putin decided to sit on the pot and read the paper rather than defecate and get up.
Chechnya deserves a well-placed nuke bomb.
