THE full horror of the Russian school atrocity began to emerge yesterday as traumatised children told horrific tales of stabbed babies and brutal rapes.
It has also emerged that scores of the 323 who died - including many children - had been shot in the back.
While despairing soldiers and rescue workers moved among the growing pile of body bags, it was revealed that an 18-month-old baby had been repeatedly stabbed by a black-clad terrorist who had run out of ammunition.
Other survivors told how screaming teenage girls were dragged into rooms adjoining the gymnasium where they were being held and raped by their Chechen captors who chillingly made a video film of their appalling exploits
They said children were forced to drink their own urine and eat the petals off the flowers they had brought their teachers after nearly three days without food or water in the stifling hot gym.
Their stories came as Russian officials warned that the final death toll of the siege of Middle School No 1 at Beslan in North Ossetia - in which up to 1,200 people were held captive - was likely to be more than 400.
The official toll yesterday stood at 323 which included 156 children, 10 Russian soldiers and two emergency service workers - 35 of the hostage-takers were also killed. Last night 434 people were being treated in hospital with 247 children and 85 adults in a critical condition.
A Russian official said six seriously injured children had been taken to Moscow for treatment.
"One of them is a child, just 18 months old, with many knife wounds," he said.

Those freedom fighters can kiss my white hairy butt.
Place your bets ladies and gentlemen - when will our esteemed MSM cover this part of the story? The first reports were critical of the Russian response, blaming the soldiers for the casualties among the hostages.
Isn't 7 the age of reason?
No. But British newspapers in general aren't as careful as ours, and the Daily Mirror is bad all around.
The main thing is that these terrorists are as evil as evil can be. However, what commonly happens in these cases is that the exact form the evil took gets misstated. The danger is that people looking for excuses to look the other way then start to mistrust all the reports. The classic example was the Belgian attrocities committed by the Germans at the start of World War I, when they killed many thousands of Belgian civilians. Sometimes they just went after the priests, but more than once they locked the whole village in a building and burnt it. This is in the recent book "The Rape of Belgium."
Unfortunately, the Belgians started claiming, among many true horrors, one apparently false one -- that babies were bayoneted. Actually, although the Germans would shoot or burn anyone, it just was not true that they singled out babies for extra savagery or special measures. As a result, after World War I, the "lie" about the bayonetted babies was constantly trumpeted as proving that the Germans weren't as bad as extremists like Churchill said they were.
The historical lesson here is that it pays to just emphasize the horrors we know to be true. No matter how good a story sounds in the Daily Mirror, which is, after all, leftist, I see no reason to repeat it until it appears elsewhere and plenty of reason to be careful.
Here's another --- as long as you're playing the role of Islamic apologist:
The Khartoum regime has declared a jihad against the mostly Christian and animist south that has resulted in more than 2 million deaths and 4.5 million displaced people in the past two decades. The U.S. Congress has termed the government's actions genocide and recently passed a bill, the Sudan Peace Act, that punishes the Islamist regime for its atrocities. Secretary of State Colin Powell called the kidnappings, killings, rape and enslavement "the worst human rights nightmare on the planet."
"As a black African woman, I cannot and will not be silent as black men in Arab nations are chained up like dogs to the back doors of Muslim households and fed, literally, from doggie bowls," Boof said in a statement she issued regarding the fatwa. "I will not be silent as African women are raped, mutilated and mentally demeaned by sadistic human beings calling themselves children of Allah. I will not be silent as the number of little black boys who are sodomized by their Arab masters continues to soar, while even worse atrocities attend the lives of little black girls."
By Kola Boof --- under the protection of the US Government because of the fatwa against her. She's not a Christian.

As far as I can tell, yes.
But if my only source for that had been a tabloid that published articles like the following, I'd doubt that too:
"IT'S BACK ON Nancy Dell'Olio and England manager Sven Goran Eriksson are living together again
"BEDDED LIAM & ROBBIE IN A DAY Revealed: The mystery blonde who made love to Robbie Williams in Liam Gallagher's bed...
"IT'S OFF England soccer ace Sol Campbell has been dumped by his millionaire girlfriend...

I guess I'll believe what this paper reports when I learn to believe in Alien abductions.
Now that is wise.
Please post your post from this morning on this thread too.
"I will not be silent as the number of little black boys who are sodomized by their Arab masters continues to soar, while even worse atrocities attend the lives of little black girls." (from link posted at #404)
Just don't be at all surprised. Like I said --- Arabs are involved and they rape African Christian children, why would Russian Christian children be different?
That's right.
Remember that the next time you drive past your local Islamic Baby-raping/Child-killing Planning Center AKA a Mosque...
Yours is an absolutely splendid post.
I give up. LOL.
Same kind of people involved.
And even more --- same allah involved.
No, these appeared to me to be very similar to the large wooden crosses erected at Colombine.
WHAT???
I insist you show me the video.
After all the work you did to convince me that a sex act did not happen unless it is proved by a video you couldn't believe that about Clinton unless you have the video.
Could you link it here please?
I kind of gave up on "reasoning" with you and now you assume there are no other accounts I am relying on except a tabloid.
You are such a master of spinning and twisting words that I hesitate to tell you I have seen reports from Parents of the children and Doctors.
Re your post #403: Very wise advice. There are plenty of accurate bad things to throw at our enemies. Using bad ammo, which can easily be disproven, has a tendency to tarnish the credibility of the accurate stuff.
The Pope has a religious duty which leads in one direction. The military have contrasting duties, but that wouldn't lead me to question the Pope's act of forgiveness.
A few gasping hostages got to slake their thirst when captors ripped clothes off young girls and soaked them in water.

I guess the nice terrorists were simply helping young girls cool themselves off by removing their clothes. Of course, those nice men would never do anything bad, would they? All of those nasty stories about Muslim men abusing women are just lies, lies I tell you, lies!!!
Fitz, I can't recall the site that is devoted to revealing the atrocities committed on Sudanese Christians and a plea to assist them--Voice of the Martyrs maybe? Do you happen to have it?
