Nice to see the Russians are able to figure out who the (relatively) good guys are in this case. Too bad it’s over Obama’s head to do the same.

Some 140 Russians, most of them natives of the Volga Federal District studying at the Islamic Al-Azhar University.... There are 75,000 Russians in Egypt, including about 30,000 property owners who live there

I suspect these are "Russians" by nationality rather than ethnicity, if you know what I mean. Certainly the "students" would all be Muslim Tatars and Chechens.
