A day of horror for the residents of Beslan, as the siege at the No 1 school comes to a bloody end.
Gunfire and blasts were heard from inside the building - then there was pandemonium as the hostages fled for their lives.
Russian commandos stormed the building in an unplanned response to the sudden violence.
Shooting continued as soldiers - and, some reports say, armed parents - went after the hostage-takers.
For the hostages, it was a bloody climax to a desperate three-day ordeal.
Correspondents said there appeared to be little preparation for the rescue operation that was needed.
A lack of ambulances meant private cars were used to ferry away the injured.
Firefighter in the ruins...
Frantic relatives hunted for their loved ones amid the confusion.
There was relief for some...
For others, desperately scanning lists of victims, the fate of their loved ones remains unknown.
And for others, there is no hope at all.
My guess is that there is a large amount of classified communications between Homeland Security, the Pentagon and Putin's folks --- lots of it. I hope they find out who was behind this, tie it to whomever in the Arab world. Then it should be "payback time". That is all these sub-humans understand.
"Continued prayers for the victims of this atrocity by the Islamofascist terrorists."
Amen, with many tears.
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts said during last night's Democratic presidential debate that the threat of terrorism has been exaggerated.
"I think there has been an exaggeration," Mr. Kerry said when asked whether President Bush has overstated the threat of terrorism. "They are misleading all Americans in a profound way."
The front-runner for the Democratic nomination said he would engage other nations in a more cooperative fashion to quell terrorism.
John Kerry - 1/29/2004
A report in another post says this was a christian school.

Death to all IslamoFascist Terrorists ~ Bump!
Hang 'em High!
(Details to be worked out by engineers and explosives experts.)
PS: And the sound of terrorists gunfire will be transmitted over an rf frequency to radio-controlled detonators of bombs planted at every mosque in the area. Let the destruction be by their own hand and stupidity.
"All" would include the muslim trash who are responsible for this deadly outrage, 9/11, and almost all the other murderous rampages since 1979. Ayatollah Khomeini, Iran 1979, (may he burn in hell) declared war on anyone not muslim and particularly Americans.
Nowhere, do I find Christ calling for the death of unbelievers. DEATH to all terrorists. The sooner the better.
USMC 1970-1981 Sepmer Fi!
look at how thin these kids are- this did not happen in three days. Like the /cubans rural Russia lives on less calories than most people get in one fast food meal.
I like that idea! That's somehing only a Marine would think of.
Ten Hut--Salute You!
You got it! If America elects something like Kerry or allows the democrap party to achieve greater numbers in the House and Senate, we will be committing suicide, laying our collective necks bare for the Islamic demons. The democrap party is aiding and abetting the terrorists, with full complicity by the alphabet networks and media liberals. Liberalism as the driver of the Democrat Party, a disease in desperate need of eradication before it kills America!
I noticed that there are some reports that armed parents joined the Russian forces. Good for them.
Could it be arranged to have all the members of C.A.I.R. and Yassar Arraft on hand for the party?
It canot be exaggerated enough that the United States of America does not need a fool who denigrates its fighting soldiers holding the office of Commander in Chief.
The difficult we can do immediately. The impossible takes another ten minutes.
From June, 1995 to Sep, 2004 there were over 1,300 infidels removed from the earth by the holy (Chechnian) Muslim warriors.
When is Russia going to get the message?
I always believed America would show the way, but there is a possibility that Russia may beat us to it. But only if all of Islam is removed from Russia and isolated before the Russian soil quakes with uncontrollable rage and swift retribution.
It is doubtful though.
Heads of state from the Arab world...I remember how each time a murder-bomber from Palestine went into Israel and blew up children, Arafat would say the same thing --
Talk is very cheap, especially from these low lifes.
