Thanks for posting this.
I'd be curious to get your thoughts on the following post.

Let us never forget that the War on Terror is actually a World War being waged by the forces of pure evil. Al Querda is brutally mass murdering Thai Buddhists, Indian Hindus, Pillipene Catholics, Israeli Jews, Sudanese Christians, and atheist Dutch documenatary makers.
Soros is a Moscow puppet. He hides his allegiance to Putin/KGB while he goes around destablizing Western democracies on Putin's behalf.
George Soros and his groups were kicked out of Russia by Putin. They are enemies.
The top leadership of the pro-Moscow and anti-Moscow Ukrainian political parties are both Putin's puppets. The genuine opposition needs to realize this and throw the bums out on both sides. Unfortunately, if the real opposition ever mangages to do this, Russian tanks will be there faster than you can say Tianamen Square.
"George Soros and his groups were kicked out of Russia by Putin. They are enemies."
No, Soros was thrown out of Moscow to dupe the right, and to give him credibility among the useful idiots on the Left.
Instead, there were some 40 large men in camouflage gear with stun guns, hand trucks and moving vans at the Soros Foundation. They ordered the staff out of the building and then loaded documents and computer printouts from the past 15 years, as well as office equipment, onto their vans. The New York-based Soros Foundation that operates under the name "Open Society Institute" had spent more than $1 billion on charitable and educational projects in Russia during the past 15 years. This summer, George Soros said that he was closing out his Russian activities.
Dmitry Lovrev, a lawyer for the Soros Foundation, said they had a 10-year lease on the office, that they were up-to-date with the rent. Kantimir Karamzin, speaking on behalf of the building owner claimed that no rent had been paid since 2001, and assured "there was no political motive for moving out George Soros."
Perhaps Mr. Karamzin did not have all the facts. Last July, when Soros decided that he had given enough cash to Moscow, the investigation into the Yukos oil giant moved into top gear.
But why should the Russians be bothering America's very own George Soros?
Like the bold oligarch that he is, Soros denounced the arrest of Khodorkovsky as "persecution" that would force business to submit to the Russian state.
"I believe that he acted within the constraints of the law in supporting political parties. I am doing the same in the United States."
By this remark, George Soros was reminding us that he had given $10 million to the Democratic National Committee for "regime change" in the 2004 elections. Of course, he is acting within the constraints of the law, in the same way that Khodorkovsky was when he named his charitable organization, the "Open Russia Foundation," and said that there was no connection with the Soros "Open Society Institute" although they did fund some projects together.
Khodorkovsky nabbed Lord Rothschild of London and our own inimitable Henry Kissinger for his board of directors. Gifts to American charities began to flow. Khodorkovsky joined the advisory board of the U.S. Carlyle Group, a super rich private equity fund, where he conferred in Moscow with the former Secretary of State James Baker III and former President George H. W. Bush.
While Soros's largest donation of all time to the Democratic Party is not yet receiving undue attention, the arrest of Russia's richest man and the Yukos losses continues to be a major story. In less than a month, votes for the State Duma will determine the extent of support for President Putin.
Putin's political party, United Russia, is running only a few points ahead of the Communist Party. Both are trying to shed the image of being fat cat bureaucrats. Of even greater concern to Putin is the large numbers of young people who are now supporting the Communists. Both major blocs could use the votes of the liberal parties that recently rallied in Moscow in support of their own positions and for the freeing of Khodorkovsky who financed both liberal groups.
Prosecutors will have no problems in finding charges against many Russian tycoons involved in the "quick and dirty" privatization programs under Boris Yeltsin in the mid- 1990s. The theory, developed by the Clinton administration, was that once private property was established, the new owners would fight for democracy against a strong Communist challenge.
When Yeltsin won, by very dubious means, oligarchs were given state jobs and enormous powers. At that time, Condoleezza Rice, who is now national security adviser, wrote that the Clintonistas were overlooking the "looting of the country's assets by powerful people." Under Putin, the prosecutors have for four years been building their cases and, again in theory, a rule of law may emerge.
I forgot you are a paranoid delusionist tin foil hatter.
This paragraph really stuck out:
Many of the pilgrims play down suggestions that Russia is engaged in a holy war, but Lyubov is less coy. "Islam and Christianity are at war. Some of our boys were crucified and nailed to trees. The Chechens laughed and said, 'Your Jesus rose from the dead on the third day; let's see if you do the same'. Terror has a Muslim face. You can't deny that."
"By this remark, George Soros was reminding us that he had given $10 million to the Democratic National Committee for "regime change" in the 2004 elections."
This is how Putin/KGB influence US elections. Putin's tepid endorsement of George Bush should be seen as keeping his relationship with Bush on the best of terms should Bush win re-election. I can't believe how easily you fall for such disinformation.
Destro, you really should read what Lenin said about Useful Idiots. It might give you pause for some self reflection.
What is wrong with you?
This poor mother lost her son to islamic terrorists who killed him because he was a Christian more than because he was a Russian.
I found her story to be inspiring and I am a Baptist American.
What a great young man!!! May GOD bless him and his Mom.
ON this day I am THANKFUL for all Christians who put Jesus Christ before their own lives and politics!!
Unless you can prove that Soros is really Putin's agent - Soros who happens to back all those peopel Putin is against in elections - you will be the "idiot" here. Either put up or shut up.
Tap is pro Chechen Muslim and this is how he chose to pull attention away from the article. A disinfo post - so no sympathy can go Russia's way or something.
"A disinfo post - so no sympathy can go Russia's way or something."
Destro, I am against terrorism in all its forms, including Chechen and Russian terrorism. Are you happy with the fact that Russia is supplying virtually all of its "former" Cold War/Terrorist allies with weapons to be used against the free world (to include turning Iran into a nuclear threat)? Russia is an enemy of the US, yet you defend the Evil Empire with your every post. I'm beginning to wonder about you, Destro.
