RUSSIA: 5 ARABS PARTICIPATED IN BESLAN
Middle East Newsline ^ | 10/17/04 | staff

MOSCOW [MENL] -- Russia has concluded that at least five Arab nationals participated in the bloody takeover of a high school in August.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov said an investigation determined that five Arab nationals participated in the Beslan attack by Al Qaida-aligned insurgents. Ivanov, in an address to the NATO-Russia Council in Romania on Oct. 14, would not identify the Arab nationals or their native countries.

In September, Russian officials said that at least 10 of the 32 attackers in Beslan were Arab nationals. The Arabs were identified as coming from Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Syria.

Ivanov told the meeting that the Chechen revolt contained a large number of Arab and other foreign nationalities. He said up to 200 foreigners were fighting Russian troops in Chechnya.

ARABS PARTICIPATED IN BESLAN

This must be wrong.
Didn't the New York Times and other news outlets assure us that these were only Chechen "militants" seeking independence?

Hard to believe that the Russians are going to help Iran get nukes. Down deep, I suspect a certain point when after the Russians have gotten as much $$ out of the Iranians as they can for building the reactor, they will leave town and let us and the Israelis blow it into little pieces. Then they will come back and start the whole project over again.

Yeah. You're right. If we hadn't attacked Iraq, there would be no international terrorism.

Better for Bush if they take action next week then if they took action three weeks ago. It make the War on Terror the number one issue again.

Panites are women's underwear.


there was a huge flap recently because some guards at the Abu Ghraib prison put panties on the heads of some prisoners and took pictures.

I expect the Russians will be able to take War to the enemy in FINE detai, and not worry about Politcal Correctnes or being "nice".

And you are right: the monsters who did that massacre in Beslan deerve a painful death and an eternity in Hell.

Didn't I read somewhere that Russia and Israel are the only 2 nations that back Bush in a poll? This is the makings of a real coalition against terror. If we'd quit preaching to the Russians our PC ideas about tolerance and let them clean Chechnya out for good, then maybe we could get back to a sane world. Anybody notice how Israel's homicide bombings are way down since they quit following "the roadmap to peace" and started sending hellfire emails to the leaders of these terror groups?

I read that 52% of Russians support Bush and so does Israel. Someone else reported Poland and Australia also support him.

The Russkies have their hands full on their southern border. My wife's nephew is Russian Special Forces and has already done 3 tours in Chechnya.
