Russian Forces Enter Theatre, End Hostage Situation
100+ people don't die cause of tear gas. and certainly not so suddenly.
I don't think they did... I think they could of died from gunshot wounds because they could of easily got caught in the cross fire.
For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

really? some terrorist were sitting dead in their chairs without gunshot wounds. that means they died because of the gas, and didn't get time to get up. they died in seconds. Also, numerous people have been reported dead as the results of gas, and the doctors haven't been able to identify the gas, so it's not tear gas.

Uh huh. Source?
I still think it is tear gas.
I suggest you stop furthering your political agenda against the Russian Government.

Yes but there are other leaders they have to go after.

you're an ignorant little bugger, aren't you? if it was tear gas, why wouldn't the Russians admit it? if it was tear gas, wouldn't the doctors recognise it?

boohoo. make me tough guy

I don't care what you think... as you are a leftist your opinion usually doesn't make sense.
Anyways... I don't want to discuss this with somebody who is as blind as a bat.
And wants to further their agenda on a terrorist strike. In my mind that is disgusting.

hey Fez, there's a big protest in Spain against a war against Iraq. CNN reports that the majority of the people in Spain are against a war in Iraq. How do you feel about that?
Despite government denials, evidence quickly mounted that many if not most of the hostages had died not at the hands of their captors, but from the knockout gas used in the attack.
News reports said a number of hostages had thrown up after inhaling the gas and then had fallen unconscious, choking on their own vomit. In an interview this afternoon, a doctor at one Moscow hospital said every hostage death at his hospital was caused by suffocation.
"The problem was that they couldn't provide medical assistance right there at the scene," the doctor said. "They had to transport them to the hospital," by which time many victims had died.
IIRC, several years ago a Russian chemist was jailed for revealing that Russia was developing a substance "significantly more potent" than VX, which by itself is far more deadly than the classical nerve gases, Sarin etc.
I will try to find a link to this story, I don't really remember much about the details.
The fact that they refuse to say what killed the hostages suggests it might be a "non-licensed" substance
The enemy cannot push a button if you disable his hand.
"Despite government denials, evidence quickly mounted that many if not most of the hostages had died not at the hands of their captors, but from the knockout gas used in the attack."
Thanks Mad Monk. And there you go Fez, you've once again been proved wrong. No surprises there, though he won't admit it and won't comment on the BBC and NY Times articles. The little chicken.
Nerve agent research continued. One direction was in the development of even more toxic agents. The greatest strides in this direction Vil Mirzayanov, who has related details of the Soviet chemical warfare program, has stated that the Soviets achieved considerable success with this in the period 1985, developing several highly toxic agents, currently known in the open literature only as "Foliant" agents (for the program name) and by various code designations, such as A-230 and A-232.
