Chechen warlord promises shock troops for invasion
The Times ^ | February 26 2022 | Tom Parfitt, Marc Bennetts

The warlord who runs Chechnya held a rally of an estimated 10,000 fighters who could be dispatched to Ukraine to take part in the invasion.

The servicemen gathered in the Chechen capital, Grozny, after Friday prayers in a show of strength by Ramzan Kadyrov, an erstwhile separatist rebel who became one of President Putin’s most loyal henchmen.

Addressing the uniformed men, Kadyrov, 45, said that fighters would serve in the “hottest spots in Ukraine”, and that he could muster 70,000 volunteers.

Video showed the Muslim fighters standing in serried ranks in a central square and crying in unison: “Allahu Akbar!”

Kadyrov said they would not be dispatched yet, but were ready to “fulfil any order”.

They will have no qualms about murdering civilians. Even Nazi Germany was shocked by their brutality.

“These “volunteers” might be amateurs. But they are also Muslims who would just love to legally kill Christians. If they are actually deployed I’d expect to see a series of massacres.”

Agree. I seriously doubt that the Chechens would be interested in ‘winning the hearts and minds’ of the Ukrainians. They’ll just blast them out of the way if there’s a problem.

If Putin really needs amateur volunteers, his invasion must be in serious trouble."

The Chechens are not green troops. Chechnya has been in an almost constant state of war since the breakup of the Soviet Union and Putin's strongmen there has been beating down the population of Chechnya for two decades.

Since it is these Chechens who are the invaders I hope there’re soon plenty of soccer balls to go around.

Why do you think US troops wipe out Islamic militants in open combat? They may be crazed killers, but they don’t have the combat discipline necessary for organized warfare.

Good troops fight in an systematic fashion, and obey the orders that come down through the chain of command. That’s how battles are won.

Kadyrov is an opportunist. He will fight along side you today, if it gives him a chance to kill you tomorrow. The term “Chechen” has for centuries been a pejorative term for treacherous.

Simple, they got tired of Putin killing them and surrendered.

These aren't amateur volunteers. Putin has been using Chechen battalions for over a decade.

They’re not insurgents, they’re regulars.

Does he really want to unleash these animals on fellow Russian Orthodox Christians?

He did it in Georgia. He'll do it again.

Ukrainian civilians are not US troops.
Chechens are not genetically similar to camel humpers.
They are more disciplined and intelligent.
