A crazed Chechen leader, once a Putin favorite, is embarrassing the Kremlin by threatening everyone.
Ramzan Kadyrov may well be Vladimir Putinâs most ghoulish creationâa political Golem who remains slavishly loyal to the Russian leader but who also serves as a constant and nagging reminder of how ugly Putin-style autocracy can get when it really goes over the edge. Like the character Smerdyakov in The Brothers Karamazov, Kadryov claims he is only fulfilling the wishes of his master, Putin, with his brutal tactics and threats to political opponents. The Chechen leader considers himself âPutinâs warrior,â and his never-fading mantra is one he repeated to me in an interview at one of his palaces in the Chechen republic: âAs long as Putin backs me up, I can do everything, Allahu Akbar!â
But lately Kadyrovâs outrageous tacticsâand his tendency to advertise himself as Putinâs attack dog, even outside Chechnyaâseem to be embarrassing Russiaâs dictatorial leader. Kadyrovâs latest hate campaign comes at a time when Putin is gingerly trying to win his way back into the international communityâs good graces after being sanctioned for his nationâs seizure of Crimea and infiltration of Ukraine; when the Russian president has just been publicly blamed by a British inquiry for the assassination of former KGB agent Andrei Litvinenko; and Putin faces a threat of waning popularity at home in the face of Russiaâs economic troubles.

I guess we’ll put you down as not a fan of a press that disagrees with Putin.
The theme of the article seemed to be “Criticize Putin and you could be killed”.
It’s a pretty useful article if you are Putin.
I guess weâll put you down as a fan of Soros propaganda rags Daily Beast and Politico and the muslim brotherhoods al Jazeera.
Soros had HAMAS enabler Robert Malley form J Street to do as much harm as possible to Israel.
J Street claimed to be a Friend of Israel and repeatedly claimed no connection with Soros.
After YEARS of J Streets lying about its connection to Soros, long balked Freedom of Information requests showed Soros bankrolled J Street.
elhombrelibre believes every word he reads in the lefty wikipedia.
And apparently everything he reads in the Daily Beast, Politico and al Jazeera.
You believe everything Putin tells you.
You believe everything al Jazeera tells you.
Do you have anything to support your assertion that Newsweek Daily Beast Company is owned, controlled or even under the influence of Soros?
Well, you’re on a roll here exposing your inability to think critically. So let me ask you a deep question. What does al Jazeera have to do with this thread other than your desire to let Putin’s little monster in Chechnya off the hook? And do you really have to get on a thread and brink up issues and factors unrelated to the thread? Are you a putinista?
What does al Jazeera have to do with this thread?
ANSWER
Your author Anna Nemtsova writes for al Jazeera.
You should educate yourself on Soros and his network.
And you think that that proves the story about Putin and his attack dog is false? You’re deep.
