Let's not get distracted from the real issue here...the need to kill terrorists. I don't think we should blame Putin. He didn't have any good options. The terrorists are to blame for this-not Putin.

"the need to kill terrorists. I don't think we should blame Putin. He didn't have any good options."

Agreed with this statement. It was a lose, lose scenerio right from the start. This is a war - both sides understand that their will be military and civilian losses. If Putin gave into this now, you could expect 20 more schools being held hostage every month. It sucks hard and the terrorist are grotesque to be shooting innocent children in the back!

These scenerios are likely here in America. Anybody wishing it away, like those in the Kerry camp are kidding themselves. World War III has already started and we in the civilized world intend to win, that means brutal tactics must be explored and utilized to protect our populace.

The Russians should start rounding up the terrorists and given them no mercy. Shooting children in the back -- what an outrage. It shows what savages the terrorists are. Yet many Eurpean countries keep admitting this kind of people, even cater to them.

What I would like to see is more cooperation between the U.S. and Russia on eliminating terrorism. Putin's well aware that terrorism is the bane of everyone's existence now - it's not mutually exclusive to Israel and 9/11. It's time for him to work with Bush to stamp it out forever, instead of propping up evil governments like Syria and Iran.

Godspeed to all those beautiful young children. They didn't deserve this. May ALL terrorist rot in friggin' hell.
