The Mufti of the Chechen Republic has endorsed Russian president Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, backed by Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, saying that the invaders are “on the path of Allah”.
Kadyrov, an Islamist who fought in a jihadist insurrection against the Russian Federation in the mid-’90s but helped to crush a wider insurrection in 1999, ultimately following his father to become Chechnya’s undisputed master under President Putin’s patronage, recently boasted he could muster up to 70,000 fighters to aid the Ukrainian offensive.
Following a rally of 12,000 such fighters in the regional capital of Grozny, the strongman announced that Chechen forces were indeed in Ukraine, sharing a video which he claimed showed some of his men hauling down the Ukrainian flag and raising a Russian one in its place at a captured military facility.
The Mufti of the Chechen Republic, Salah Mezhiev, has offered religious backing to the offensive, asserting that the Russian federal subject’s Islamist system might collapse along with Russia proper if alleged Western scheming to destroy the country succeed, according to Chechen media previously cited by both Russian and Western outlets.
“About 30 million Muslims live in Russia. Islam is an officially respected religion in this country. In this country, at the legislative level, insulting the Prophet Muhammad and the Qur’an is prohibited,” Mezhiev explained, praising the current arrangement as one in which “there is freedom to practice Islam to the fullest.”
“But all this will fall apart if Russia falls apart,” he warned.

Reports were that Kadyrov had been killed.
This ought to make Putin real popular at home.
So Russia has a Mufti? Who Knew? Maybe Pootin is a closet goat trainer?
Choas is the path of Allah. Muslims hated Russia in Afghanistan, they used to skin captured Russians alive. But now they love Russia when it’s causing war and chaos.
That’s okay, I don’t need another reason to hate and despise islam.
Bomb Grozny again!
My mistake, the military leader Magomed Tushayev was reported killed.
That’s the path straight to hell.
It seems kind of tone-deaf from a PR perspective for Vlad Putin, who styles himself as a great defender of the Orthodox Christians, to send hordes of Muslims into Ukraine to kills Christians and Jews.

Well, then I hope that the Ukrainian forces will sent them to Allah as soon as possible. I hope they like raisins.
The cheese has slid off of the cracker.
Ya think?
Vlad has many fans here.
Every time I read another story about the Russia/Ukraine war I find myself disliking both sides more and more.
Ah, Christian values.
So Putin activates a brigade of muslin mercinary orcs against a Euro country that gave no signal of hostility. Not a PR problem at all.
The Ukrainians will help them to meet this allah personage.
