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.

Beyond belief....Satan at work
Just when I think I cannot get angrier or sadder, more outraged than I already am...THIS... May God be with the survivors and and the families of the victims..Heal and comfort them, Lord...and help us obtain victory over these terrorists.
No flame from me. You get nothing but respect from me for your devotion. I won't be earning that same respect. I'm too full of hate.
Actually raping captives and killing people is in Islamic scriptures. These people did nothing that was not ordered by Muhammad. It is all here:

Amen.
There were arabs,too.
The media already choosing not to mention that this was a Christian school.
That had best be the Muslim prayer these days, instead.
Hell's coming...............for they have yet again shown that they are subhuman and will be treated accordingly.
BTTT
It should. When we had front porches we could just sit out there and watch traffic. Modern residences don't have front porches. I think we should all build front porches and sit out there. That would build a sense of community and a lot less stuff would be going on. Safety through architecture.
What is a "hostage taker?" This innocuous nanny-speak of political correctness is repulsive.
What kind of reaction did you get from the preacher/priest and the congregation?
It is time for the Pope to declare a new Crusade. There is no more questions as to who the enemy is or what must be done. We must bring the Love of Christ to the tormented, satanic islamofascisti, if needed with the full weight of western arms and armor behind us.
"...if not that school could be in our little town."
Our children, our schools, our towns. You are RIGHT. Gird your loins for the New Crusade.
There has been very scant coverage of this tragedy. The horror grows with each report and Old Media in this country is mum.
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.

Vile human rubbish. There is no other thing to say. This cancer must be cut out of the human body at large and disposed of. I can not even imagine in my wildest nightmares the stabbing of an 18 month old BABY!

They saw how our citizenry went gah-gah over the relatively mild treatment of the prisoners at Abu Ghraib, and perceived us as weak. They know that the world will condemn us for that, while they go on torturing and murdering non-combatants.
The world community who are victims of the terrorist actions should renounce the Geneva Convention and put all terrorists on notice that they cannot rely on individual state/country's laws to provide them with humane treatment when they are captured.
That's the way to stop their atrocities in their tracks.
