Speaking about how governments like that wouldn't care much not to kill the innocent in order to reach the guilty, here is an Arabic Egyptian movie (they are the main producers of that there) from 1993 (according to wikipedia) that is one of the best I have ever seen. The main event is an accident that drags into a hostage situation. Anyway, in one part of the movie the minister tells the hostage takers that nobody can twist the arms of the government and those who get killed in the middle are martyrs to their families the government would issue compensations. It is surprising to me, especially being originally from Iraq, that the government even had stopped to negotiate to begin with but the maker of the movie had to work within the limit of the freedom of expression which was probably already more than risky enough.
(Although, I don't remember how good the translation there)
