"Sheesh!!! We actually have a terrorist supporter on Free Republic!"
Wait a sec, there, bud. The Chechens have their own issues with terror and dastardliness, but it's a matter of tools being wielded. The terrorists are convenient weapons, much as the "useful idiots" elsewhere. The Chechens terrorists have been bastards all on their own.
(Yeah, your reply was to GIJoel, not me, but I just didn't think it was a fair statement you made. And by association, I felt insulted.)
LOL!!! Do the mullahs in Iran have a problem with their own terrorists, too?
Putin's suggestion will enable people he finds to be free of corruption to fill these slots and is a wonderful idea.
This might be the only comment by sinkspur with which I agree. The poster you are defending has launched a campaign here to convince us that the left is behind the terror, not islam and that islam is just a misunderstood, peace loving group of lugs. He also sings praises for the religious freedoms in turkey, a country that is 99% muslim and where you can get arrested for giving a Bible to a friend.
I don't know what your inclinations are but dig a bit before you jump to defend a propagandist for islam.
