Gary, please. This is a complete nonsense.
I never supported Chechen Jihadists. Jihadists are Jihadists everywhere and they deserve nothing but a bullet in their head or explosive blown under them.
I said about excessive and unnecessary brutality of the folks like Kadyrov and the Russian Federal forces toward non-combatants, but I never ever supported Chechen Jihadi Separatists-Terrorists or their political aims. My qualms was the tactics toward non-combatants (like revenge kidnappings after Jihadi attacks), but I never objected to the goal of defeating Chechen or other N. Caucasus Jihadists. I'm glad when such thugs like Basayev and others are blown off the face of this earth. So please don't attribute to me something that I never supported.
You seem to forget I was the one who kept telling those supporting the Chechens' cause they were allied with al-Qaeda, and I received nothing but mocking from you and others.
