~“up to 80% of ISIS groups in Syria are former residents of the North Caucasus and the republics of the Middle Volga.” The remaining 20 percent, it says, “are former citizens of the Soviet republics of Central Asia. These people speak Russian more often than Arabic among themselves”...~
Bullcrap.
Well, not innocent school children
But Putin deserves defeat, leading to his kleptocracy’s overthrow
That’s the only reason I feel schadenfreude for the Chechens coming back to haunt him
And to get him the hell out of Ukraine... 3-4000 dead way worse than any terrorist attack in Russia, eh
Putin has his “Chechens” as well.
It states specifically in Syria, and of course ISIS is not all the entire opposition movement in Syria
I’ve seen it from more than one quote, “it’s all Chechens/speaking Russian’ in the Syrian branch of ISIS, which is quite secretive compared to the Iraqi branch, or so they say... makes one wonder what/who they are hiding
Revenge a dish best served cold: Although Chechnya seems to have been tamed by first Vladimir Putin -now maintained by his back-slapping buddy, the brutal, pro-Kremlin yahoo Ramzan Kadyrov (they collaborated with their own 'Novorussia' terrorists in the invasion of Ukraine as well)- the defeated Chechen Islamists that were driven into the hills and abroad are clearly playing a long-game, as they've gained connections, battlefield experience, and new strategies/weaponry they surely will bringing home to the Russian Federation (of which Chechnya is a part) before you know it.
Well put.
A long and bloody war within Russian borders, Putin will be kaput!
