Latest I could find on Moscow. Chilling;

"The terrorists are demanding one thing - the end to the war in Chechnya," Gribakin said.

Russian news reports said the armed men and women were laying land mines inside the theater and had explosives strapped to their bodies which they threatened to blow up if Russian security forces stormed the building.

A woman who made her way out of the theater told a television interviewer the men wore camouflage as they took the stage, fired into the air and said: "Don't you understand what's going on? We are Chechens."

News reports said the hostage-takers arrived in jeep-like vehicles just as the second act of the play was about to begin. When police and security forces surrounded the theater, the attackers opened fired and threw a grenade. One of the hostages, a doctor, was treating a hostage-taker who was wounded.

No problem. Let the hostages go and we'll shake hands and we'll forget the war and we'll all just get along. We will teach the world a lesson on how to solve the problem of war.

I know - the lack of news coverage is kind of amazing. The thread that's been running on FR (link Below)has had far more information than any news outlet I've monitored. You would think that even without video footage, they could get some more information to us. [I know this got off topic, sorry]
