Gary, that was a terrific rundown. Thank you again.

I don't know, gentlemen, but all that Gary writes sounds completely logical (NOTE: I know little about ordinance, so that one aspect I will leave to both of you).

The story is similar to what transpired on and after 911 and even Hurricane Katrina...from the absolute chaos and unavoidable miscues to the families and others casting aspersions about the culpability of the days' events and aftermath.

It is terribly sad and understandable at the same time.

This is a correction to my post.

Gudick clearly states some of the terrorists did escape. Indeed, two escaped, were captured by the civilians are ripped to shreds. Thirteen escaped and were tracked down and killed by the Spetsnaz. One schoolgirl reported being carried out on a stretcher by two men, and one was a TERRORISThostage.

Donna,

Note the anti-Ameica attitude at Beslan.



And this callous Russian soldier, without a caring attitude for the children.
