Meet Gulmurod Khalimov, the US-trained and funded former commander of Tajikistan's special forces, who, as Reuters reports, has now gone to Syria to fight with ISIS. He has a message: "Listen, you American pigs, I’ve been three times to America, and I saw how you train fighters to kill Muslims...God willing, I will come with this weapon to your cities, your homes, and we will kill you."

As Reuters reports:

Colonel Gulmurod Khalimov commanded the Central Asian nation’s special-purpose police known as OMON, used against criminals and militants. He disappeared in late April, prompting a search by Tajik police.

He reappeared Wednesday, vowing to bring jihad to Russia and the United States as he brandished a cartridge belt and sniper rifle, in a professionally made, 10-minute video clip posted in social networks.

Silence is tacit consent.

Lack of action against evil is part of evil.

I went on to read the Reuters article linked in Zerohedge and there they say he was from OMON police unit. OMON is "special" because it is sort of like a riot police used mostly to disperse demonstrations. Rather far from Special Forces as it is commonly understood.

Rangers, SEALs, Special Forces are all Special Operations units, but the “Special Forces” is the United States Army Special Forces, the “green berets”, which is a nick name for them.

I think the media is erasing their name and making it a generic term.

In this case the media is going even farther as the riot police is nothing like any of what you listed and does not have any of the relevant skills.

Don't know how OMON units have evolved see the Soviet break up.

In the latter days of the USSR and red bloc eastern European nations OMON units were more like the old terror Cheka.

Polish friends who emmigrated during the upheavals said they acted as agent provocateurs as well as targeting opposition leaders for severe back alley beat downs as well as outright assassinations. Steroid and meth use was administered by OMON command. I was told that more than a few had to be taken down by their own teams for running totally out of controll.

Agent provocateurs is interesting in light of the 2920 summer riots and the J 6 riot that had some many agents provocateur, one of which fled to Belarus.
