Students chanted,
"We'll never be slaves again," before burning the flag
of the hated occupiers. When protestors
tried to storm Radio Budapest, authorities responded with force. Emboldened by desperation,

they said. As a result, the Russian tanks
were driven out of the capital. Is this the hour of victory
for Hungary's young freedom fighters?
