I thought america already beat all the terrorists? What's going on?

... Was that supposed to be a joke?

Another sad state of affairs for this world. Violence only brings more violence, it's the truth and if you think that's some sort of idealistic vision, you're a tard.

It's sad. What's more sad is that CNN, which would be covering this for 2 weeks non-stop seems to be more enthralled with the Republican Convention and the Hurricane. That's sickening.

I know! I understand that the RNC and Frances are important, but what's going on in Russia should be reported on. Thank god for the BBC!

Agree with the need for BBC in a time like this.

CNN is doing really well on their website covering this trajedy. But for full-on coverage, the BBC is the way to go in world events.

And if you're looking at Fox News for information on this, shame on you!

I consider FOX news as entertainment, not news. Now they're saying "at least 15 killed". I love how the death toll decides how much attention a story gets. Frickin crazy.

Roughly 100 deaths...whew. The national news coverage here sucks, hell, the locals have had more coverage of this story than CNN, MSNBC, et al.

Uhh.. this was going on for 2 days.

"N, Russia — Gunfire and explosions could be heard around a school in southern Russia (search) as a three-day hostage standoff that could have killed more than 150 people continued."

Those poor kids,
I hope the sick bastards who did this are all dead now.
How could you kill a child? I just dont understand it.

Those Chechen rebels are sick and twisted. Drawing innocent people into their war as any other terrorist group does is lame- even more so when they have to pick on unarmed schoolchildren who know fuck all what is going on until it's too late.

Most of the major news media I take with a rock of salt (including FUX News- fair and balanced, my ass). They can be corporate whores sometimes.

They're Muslim. Those whackos are inolved in nearly every conflict going on worldwide.
