The terrorists laughed

The terrorists laughed at the suffering of children, who'd gone for days without water, food or sleep, says a survivor of the Russian school seized by what AP calls "rebels."

BESLAN, Russia -- Holding up the corpse of a man just shot dead in front of hundreds of hostages at a Russian school, the rebel --his pockets stuffed with ammunition and grenades -- warned: "If a child utters even a sound, we'll kill another one."

When children fainted from lack of sleep, food and water, their masked and camouflaged captors simply sneered. In the intolerable heat of the gym, adults implored children to drink their own urine.

. . . "We were in complete fear," said Alla Gadieyeva, 24, who spoke to an Associated Press reporter Friday as she lay collapsed in exhaustion on a stretcher outside a hospital. "People were praying all the time and those that didn't know how to pray -- we taught them."
