Keith,
I'm not against the actions the Russian's took rather the planning aspects of what happen after the fact. If they knew this gas was going to be so affective they should have made plans for casualities and had the Doctor's ready with the antidotes.
Prices have to be paid to maintain the peace. I know that and yes it always isn't pretty. The poor civy caught in the middle and having little if any training can't really protect themselves against terror like that.
The gas being oderless and tasteless is what took them all out. It had to be quick or they would have surely taken out the building and the people in the process.
It saved lives yes I agree but many more could have been saved had they made better plans. For every action there is a reaction this is what we saw. Those in power and those who authorize these practices must be held accountable to a point.
I'm sure someone will be out looking for a job when all this is finally ironed out.
