There were about that many terrorists. I doubt many of them went quietly - or were given the chance to do much but die.

I'm amazed that the Russians took any of the islamofacists alive. Standard op is to double tap hostage takers if there is even a chance that not killing them immediately will endanger hostages or yourself.

Actually, this could be very good news. I'm sure the Russians have ways of making the arrestees spill the beans on any other terrorist plots they know about.
