Attackers seize hostages at Russian school

[rboomsma]

No offense to you Americans, but if an American didn't die it is not news in the USA. Which is a shame.

Here in Canada it has been on the front pages of our newspapers and in the news every hour, first story of the news for several days already, even before the massacre.

Being married to a Russian and having lived in Russia myself, my heart bleeds for the children of Beslan an the pain and horror those poor people have gone through and will continue to go through for many years. I feel this attack is even worse than 9/11 as it attacked our children, the most innocent of all victims, there little lives had barley begun.

I think we should all take a moment to think of those lost lives. :-(

I got the lynching and nurse stories from Bulgarian news coverage of the event. Suprisingly it was pretty good.
