If real proof bit you on the hindquarters, would you even know it?
Smart aleck comments reduce the effectiveness of the arguement.
On some of these threads, there are pictures of some of the dead perps, and they sure don't look like Chechens.
The pictures you mention aren't a part of the evidence offered by this Russian source whose main interest is deflecting criticism from Putin's government. The insider may be right. He just didn't offer any proof. Proof is necessary. Have a good day.

Fox News on Sunday stated a Muslim website claimed involvement in Beslan. However, nothing more today.

I also fired off an email to FOX to express my outrage. Many things in life have angered me, but none will equal not only the evil deeds done on innocent children by this cabal of offal, but this network's PC-girly-coverage of what 'really' happened to them. (We wouldn't want to wake up the andorid sheep in this country about what is at stake--a sensitive war is not one of the options--or that schools here are soft targets; or offend the Milquetoast Left; or some Muslims, you know, from the Religion of Peace---their silence in this country, let along elsewhere has been deafening!) A blogger came to the point:

If ANY ethnic group doesn't wish to be "profiled" and judged by the worst of their group --- they had better take action to distinquish themselves as part of the SOLUTION instead of the PROBLEM.

The best the network could come up with to describe what happened: deaths, militants. Cavuto at least used the word Terrorist. All the while numbing our minds with their silly breathless non-stop 'Florida Storm-a-rama 2004' nonsense...with no letup today...geez!!, Clinton surgery, etc..

I encourage all of you to contact them if you feel a protest is in order. Somebody, I don't recall the source, put news coverage in perspective:

The institutional reluctance of the press to render judgment over what values or conclusions serve the greater good is intentional.

To be literal, it’s called obscurantism: the practice of delivering vague truths and hiding key facts, with-holding information from the public and lying through selective omission.
