Nothing on Pravda yet. But of course that just confirms that the source is unreliable.
Does anyone know if there is an antidote for Fentanyl?

I may be wrong... but this is even less bad than I was making out to be. BZ Gas is more dangerous than Fentanyl.

It only makes you look more stupid.

If these guys had come into an American hospital comatose they'd have been administered the antidote as a matter of standard protocol. When the staff noticed that they awakened within a minute of being given the antidote they'd have alerted all hospitals in the vicinity to pool their supplies.

I think I heard Putin had 85% of the population supporting his way to "deal with the situation". Did anyone heard about this ?

I wondering did you or Marcus ever suggest it was this gas before? You are just wrong as I am until the Russians announced it. I was just following the opinion of a few experts.

You are never right.

Marcus go to hell... you know you are always wrong... you can't make up your damn mind...

The antidote for Fentanyl is the same as the antidote for any opiod, narcan or naltrexone. All opiods work by binding encephlan recepors in the brain. Encephlans are naturally occuring polypeptides used as neurotransmitters at certain synapses, especially those in the spinal cord and brain stem which modulate the transmission of pain signals to the brain. Narcan competitively inhibits the binding of opiods to these receptors blocking the effect of the opiod.

I think I was the first to report here that it was an anesthetic - I quoted a 17 year old hostage to that effect. I think the Germans and American doctors figured out that the boy was right and name the compound.

Saint Marcus, regarding Waco, I beleive they used tear gas. What they should have used, in hindsight, is the same gas as the Russians used. At least then some of the "hostages" would have lived.

The question is, what will governments do about using anesthetics in this fashion for the future? I suspect that governments will use them, but also learn from the mistakes of the Russians. They will provide adequate on-sight antidotes that will keep at least the hostages alive.

What are your views, Saint Marcu, Axi?

Marcus go to hell... you know you are always wrong... you can't make up your damn mind...
I didnt suggest it first because I didnt have a clue. However, you wanted to seem smart, so you racked your brains and came up with the only gas you could think of: tear gas. Problem is, you were wrong.
I can't be wrong until I have made a statement. I didn't make a statement until I knew I was right.
Now since the Russians have announced it, I'm right and you're wrong.
This contradicts your statement that I am never right. Too bad Fez, wrong again.

'How many times must Fez be wrong, before he realizes he's wrong? The answer is blowing in the wind.'

Ned, the problem now, as someone else pointed out, is that the next time the terrorists will do something as terrible as this, they will bring either an antidote, or more realistically, they will bring gas masks. God knows how easy it is to get your hands on this stuff in Russia.

Well, I'd start with attempts at negotiation, perhaps be more inquisitive about the nature of this mystery gas, and just maybe cooperate with the hospitals.

That was being done. This was the result:

Quote:
The new demands were brought out of the theater just before midnight Friday by Anna Politkovskaya, a Russian journalist who is respected by Chechens for her reporting on the war and was called in by the rebels to mediate.

Politkovskaya said the gunmen had told here they were "going to wait only a little while" before they started killing hostages.

They already knew what the nature of the gas was. They deployed it.

Quote:
Why wasn't it?
It was an extremely unrealistic demand in the first place.

I'm not sure how the Russian authorities could have bungled the situation so badly if there was no confusion over its identity.

Because people with moral fibre never negotitate with terrorists. The proper way to handle terrorists is to kill them. Capture a few to torture for information and then kill them and all they name.

Given the Russian government's actions (such as in Chechnya), I find it difficult to attribute any moral fiber to them.

And we all know people never tell lies when tortured.

Missed this gem.
I don't give a damn about propaganda coming from ****witted racist fascist non-Islamic terrorist sympathizers.

I would give them twenty minutes to surrender or I will start:

1) Launching a military operation consisting of hundreds of MiGs in precision strikes in Chechyna.

2) Order the building to be stormed in twenty minutes.

Lawrence, fine I concede... you wanted that? Yes I was wrong. But don´t make a big deal about... I assumed it was tear gas at first... but when casualities pilled up I started to suspect it was BZ gas, now it is this one I never heard of. However the Russians still did a fine rescue.

It wasn't confusion about the nature of the gas that bungled the operation, it was an obsession with secrecy.

The government was not in a position to negotiate on that point. That left little bargaining room. I am not oppossed to negotiating with terrorists as long as room for negotiation exists. The US has done it before and will likely do it again in the future.
