Russian vow 'a threat to everyone'
Sep 8 2004
Russia's threat to target "terrorists anywhere" is a danger to Britain, Europe and the rest of the world, a top Chechen separatist based in the UK has warned.
Akhmed Zakayev said the vow meant Russia may try to assassinate Chechens wherever they are, regardless of international boundaries.
And he warned that sent out a "very disturbing signal to all civilised countries".
Mr Zakayev, an envoy for Chechen separatist leader Aslan Maskhadov, also rejected claims by Russia that he should face a renewed extradition attempt following the Beslan school massacre.
The separatist, who has been granted asylum, spoke out after Colonel General Yuri Baluyevsky, chief of the Russian General Staff. reasserted the country's right to strike at terrorists the world over.
Mr Zakayev said: "I think these are probably not empty threats, in fact they have already shown in practice that that is the way they do things.
"It is a very disturbing signal they are sending for all civilised countries.
"There are lots of Chechens all over the world and of course they talk freely about how dissatisfied they are with Putin's policies.
"To Putin, that makes them international terrorists. It is a warning to other European countries that Russia may come and carry out an assassination on your soil at any moment."
In February this year, two Russian agents assassinated Chechen rebel leader Zelimkhan Yandarbiyev in a car bomb attack in Qatar.
"Turn in your passport and don't let the door hit you on the #@#."

My point here is that Chechnya is to Russia what Alabama is to the US. This is an internal matter for Russia to resolve without the Communists in our State Department telling them how to suck up to the Muslims.
During our Civil War we told the French and British to get bent when they wanted to negotiate the partition of our country. Russia has the right to tell us to get bent on this. It's none of our business other than to help Putin exterminate the vermin who would kill helpless children.
For example, I would cite the Muslim Imam (Holy Man) who was given sanctuary in the UK in 1984 and who now advocates the abduction and murder of children (like what occurred in Belsan) as an acceptable means of political action as a prime example. You do not "reason" with these monsters. BTW, isn't it curious that we have heard very little from the Islamic Holy community about the Belsan outrage? Actually, I am not surprised in the least. Many, if not most, of these people are the enemy within.
It's nice to know the russians have finally found a modern target for their various skills.
And the problem with this is what?
We can stand with Putin or we can stand with the terrorist. My vote's for Putin.
He is afraid he will not get to rape some Russian school girls.
We should send this guy to Putin with a little bow on his head as an apology for that damnfool "seek diplomatic solutions" statement that we released.
Point well taken. But believe me, we would not want Putin as our president. We'd have to accept the whole package, not something I'd personally want. And any who want to have him as president can attempt to get Russian citizenship. That's my point.
Thanks for the clarification. I agree.
I wonder if the Berkely city council is worried.
Thanks. See ya around, GOP.
You may assassinate any or all Islamist filth you find fouling our soil. I will not bat an eye.

Like the Marines say, "You can run, but you'll just die tired."
Does Akhmed want some cheese to go with that whine ?
I wonder what is his definition of a civilized country, the one under the Sharia law? Anyway, he would be smart to destroy his cell phone.
Putin isn't any different but I hope he follows Bush doctrine and doesn't try to do this as a clandestine operation a la KGB. It's time for the big powers of the world to do things in a deliberate way for all the world to see. That way the Islamofacists will see their days of hiding behind moderate Muslims are numbered. It will also give some backbone to moderate Muslims to start defending themselves against the Islamofacists.
