Chechen Group Behind Beslan Claims Attack Kadyrov Vows To Wipe Out Islamic Militants
June 29, 2009
MOSCOW (Reuters) -- The Chechen rebel group behind the 2004 Beslan school massacre has claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing last week that badly wounded the president of Russia's southern region of Ingushetia.

"This operation was carried out by the rebel battalion Riyadus Salikhin," the group said in a statement posted on kafkazcenter.com, a website with ties to the Chechen separatist movement.
It said the June 22 attack on Kremlin-appointed Ingushetian President Yunus-Bek Yevkurov was ordered by Chechnya's most-wanted separatist leader, Doku Umarov.
Chechnya's pro-Kremlin leadership said on June 8 that Umarov had been severely wounded in a special operation that killed four of fighters. It has been unclear since then whether he is dead or alive.
Russia has stabilized Chechnya after two separatist wars since the mid-1990s, but nearby Ingushetia and Daghestan have replaced it as the main centers of violence on the country's volatile southern flank. The restive regions pose a challenge to Kremlin rule and provide a foothold for Islamist militants.
Describing the bomb attack, the Riyadus Salikhin group said: "At 8.30 in the morning, a car packed with explosives rammed into the armored Mercedes belonging to Yevkurov."
Yevkurov, 45, underwent surgery after the bombing, which killed one of his relatives, and is now in a stable condition. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has condemned the attack as a "terrorist act" and vowed a "direct and severe response."
Units of the Riyadus-Salikhin group, then run by Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev, who died in 2006, carried out the 2004 Beslan school siege in southern Russia in which more than 320 people died. Most of the victims were children.

I hope the Kremlin exterminates the Chechens. I would mail them a contribution to help pay for the ammunition!

Sarcasm? Or are you actually wishing genocide on these people?

And Obama will claim that these bombers are just “freedom fighters” and we need to support them, just as Clinton supported the jihadis in Bosnia

Russia has been fighting the Militant/Islamic/Moslem issue for eons...Putin absolutely understands that threat..”to his country”.... calls them “bast*rds” and he's right. They cannot be reasoned with.
But make no mistake..Putin will use Islamic Nations to serve his purposes and trade for Russia..... Chechnya is a thorn in his side....

As I told you in the other post ...people will be more accepting to the 'struggle' of the Chechens (and Palestinians for that matter) when they give up terrorism, Wahhabi-esque Islam, and association with terrorist groups (in the case of the Chechens Al Qaeda). When that happens. Scratch that ...if that happens, then people will be far more likely to lend an ear to their 'struggle.' Until then please do not expect much sympathy. The Russians could raze down Grozny afresh, the Israelis could bulldoze a baker's dozen of Palestinian dwellings, and the US could shoot Hellfires from Predators are jihadi settlements in North Waziristan ...and no one will blink. Why? Because most people understand that those same Chechens/Hamas/AlQaeda (what's the difference anyways ....especially between the Chechen 'freedom fighters' and AlQaeda since they have been fighting together for years now) that are screaming 'help' would kill you in an instant.

it's a little more complicated than "wipe 'em out"
The Chechen culture is old -- they are probably descended from the Hurrites or other ancient middle-eastern people who were in northern Iraq during Sumerian times
They were also NOT Moslem until the 17th century -- primarily pagan/shamanist -- all indications are that they converted to Islam when Russia was moving into them -- perhaps as a way of solidarity? Whatever, it was a pity
The Russians did try to exterminate them repeatedly and the Soviets deported them en-masse
What is the solution? I don't know
But I do know that now Chechnya is calm, thanks to a strong man
And I do know that if they were Christian, the issue would not be as bad -- after all, Ossetians are a separate ethnicity (Irani people) who are Russian Orthodox, yet keep their culture and are close to Russia.
