The terrorists started shooting. The kids ran in panic. The terrorists began killing the kids. The military didn't have a choice but to start shooting. Most of the kids were shot in the back by the terrorists or killed when the gym was blown up. (by the terrorists)

While the photos were being taken of men running with bloody children in their arms, they were under heavy fire by the terrorists. These people risked their lives to carry the children to safety.

This was NO Waco and the scum who began this whole mess never intended to let any of those kids live.

thats true, but unfortunately it took more then 20 mins between initial explosion and them entering the school. Supposedly it took another hour before fighting died down in the school and moved to the houses around it, by other reports it was more then 2 hours. Just from looking at the pictures half of the soldiers there looked to be not special forces but normal infantry conscripts, untrained and unprepared to dealing with something like that.

1.Why there was no secure perimeter?
2.Why crowd wasn't kept away?(many people in the crowd rushed to the building and got killed or injured during the assault)
3.When the shooting started(apparently by terrorists) why it took so long before special forces got to the building?
