through her Sunday-night show, Madonna spoke briefly about the hostage-taking at
a school in the southern city of Beslan that left at least 330 dead. Officials
have blamed the deadly attack on Chechens and other Islamic militants.
As video images of war and children were broadcast behind her on giant
screens, the 46-year-old pop diva urged fans to think about what happened in
Russia and about Lennon's lyrics.
