"Why don't you meet Osama bin Laden, invite him to Brussels or to the White House and engage in talks, ask him what he wants and give it to him so he leaves you in peace?" the Guardian quoted Putin as saying sarcastically.
The Chechen bandits (not "rebels") want a pan-Caucasus emirate, under sharia law and under their control!!!! They also want to--in the process of acheiving their goals--slaughter as many Christians (Russians, Ossetes, Armenians, Georgians, etc.) in the region as they can, and reduce those who are left to dhimmitude!!!!!
Osma bin Laden wants a WORLD-WIDE khalifate, with a similar--only more widespread--genocide of "infidels"!!!!
No negotiations are possible with EITHER of them!!!! "You're either with us, or with the terrorists."
What kind of Kerryesque "sensitive approach to terrorists" types in the State Department came up with suggestions to negotiate with the Chechen terrorist savages? They should be fired at once!!!!
Besides, anyone who thinks that the Russians or anyone else should negotiate with these child-killing savages should ask a mother whether anyone should negotiate with them. They would be set straight very quickly!!!!
Absolutely correct-there can be no peace until Islamacists give up their plan for world domination. We must force them to do so...negotiation would be meaningless because they are liars as well as murderers.
