BESLAN, Russia — Zalina Dzandarova cradles her son Alan as he sleeps with his small face buried against her stomach. He is the child Dzandarova was able to save. The child she chose to save, really.
It is the other one, little Alana, her 6-year-old daughter, whose image torments her: Alana clutching her hand, Alana crying and calling after her. Alana's sobs disappearing into the distance as Dzandarova walked out of Middle School No. 1 here Thursday, clutching 2-year-old Alan in her arms.

I wrote on TM that if it were up to Kerry, THIS would happen here
Kerry says the terrorist threat is 'overrated'.
I remember how hard it was to leave my crying five-year old the first day of kindergarten.
This mother will never recover from this barbaric torture.
I truly hate these monsters.
It just get worse and worse.
Too awful to even imagine.
If one put it in the movie, one would not believe it!
Monsters

I truly hate these monsters.
BTTT same here!
How much longer before the victims begin to rise up?
Putin needs to turn Chechnya into a sea of glass.
It's said that ten of the terrorists killed were arab mercenaries.
Sickening, heartbreaking, that mother will never recover.
Did the little girl die? Was there a follow-up story?
also Kerry says we need a more sensitive war on terror. bah.
Being a mother of a 6 year old and a 2 year old I would rather die myself than have to make this choice. I'm not faulting this mother at all..at least she saved one of them. But I cannot comprehend the agony of making the choice. Perhaps she thought the 6 year old had a better chance of saving herself in some way...running or something.
Oh Dear Lord....
