Russian hostage situation

[Coastie]

With the end of this particular hostage taking and the carnage left in its wake, I find myself less than happy with the news that (supposedly) all of the hostage takers had been tracked down and killed. There is a part of me that says justice for all of these children, parents and teachers is not complete. There is a part of me that wanted to hear that these people had been captured alive then turned over to the women of the Commanche tribe for a no questions asked, no quarter given old fashioned ritual death by slow torture.
Call me cold, cruel or whatever, that is the way I feel. Anybody that would treat small children and their mothers and teachers in this manner deserve no sympathy from anybody even if their "Cause" was just. May God forgive me, but that is the way I feel.

I believe they(Russians) have 3 of these animals in custody. I am sure they are reading them their Miranda rights before subtly questioning them and putting them in a nice airconditioned cell with TV. I have no tolerance for this scum and if they continue with these despicable acts the Rest of the World yes I said the Rest of the World will really realize its a war on terror. Of course the liberal spin will be that it was all Russias fault in the first place.

Indeed it will be interesting to see how things turn out. I am amazed to see the number of deaths nearing 350 this evening. As much as I'd love to see the Russians and other countries turn against terrorism, I'd easily trade the incident for a usual day in Russia instead. Truly sad!
