Russia - more like the bad old days all the time

From the BBC - the Russian military will not face criminal charges for using FLAMETHROWERS to lift the school siege in Beslan last year. FLAMETHROWERS?? Most of the hostages were KIDS, for God's sake. The terrorists deserved to get flambed, but the kids were STILL IN THE FRIGGIN' BUILDING!

This sort of non-justice was par for the course in the Soviet Union of yore. We had hoped for better out of Comrade Putin. In vain, it would seem.
