The Chilling Chechen Connection
National Review Online ^ | April 19, 2013 | David French

Posted on 04/19/2013 1:32:54 PM PDT by BlatherNaut

Before I go any further, let me clearly state that my comments are based in part upon current news reporting, and — as recent events have proven — contemporary news reports are notoriously unreliable. I’m writing this post under the assumption that the suspects are, in fact, from Chechnya or from nearby Chechnya. A few quick observations:

1. Chechen terrorists have a record of unbelievable savagery, and when I heard the suspects were Chechen, a chill went down my spine...

*****Democraps have embraced EVERY one of the so-called progressive ideas that have killed an untold number of Americans over the years.*****

Planned Parenthood is their crowning achievement. 60million and counting.

Sorry to inundate multiple threads with the same post, but I think this bears repeating and should be broadcast from one end of the U.S. to the other:

One of the dirty secrets of this whole situation that may or may not come out of these media reports is that the U.S. has been an active partner with Chechen separatists in Russia over the years. Do a search on the interesting history of a group called the American Committee for Peace in Chechnya (ACPC). They were established in Washington D.C. in 1999 but changed their name to the American Committee for Peace in the Caucasus in 2004 after the Beslan massacre in Russia. Their board of directors is filled with many of the same neo-con @ssholes from the Bush administration who were supposedly leading the U.S. "war on terror" back then.

And just in case anyone has any doubts about where the priorities of these @ssholes lie, just keep in mind that many of them were clamoring for the Clinton administration to launch military action against Serbia to help protect Islamic radicals in Kosovo, too.

If anyone out there still trusts his/her own government, you're naive and delusional.

You are right. Now, we must reflect and ask ourselves, what did we do to make them so angry?

I heard the uncle’s comments on the radio earlier today, he was condemning his nephews. It sounded so false, all I could think was that he was lying, and that he was most likely involved in it too.

“Putin made a vow to get every last one of the terrorists of the Beslan school massacre. And he did. Every - Last - One.”

...of course, there was some “collateral damage”...well, actually, there was quite a bit of it.

There was a village which harbored the last surviving Beslan attacker. The Russians went in an killed EVERYONE and EVERYTHING in that village.

But in fact, the first people known to have had it and given it out, was a chechen islamist group.

Gore is a national hobby for them. I will ping you to a thread where I just posted some stuff.

I don’t have the link. It’s been a long time and I don’t remember if I read it or if it was a History Channel type presentation. If I can find it I will post it.

Ha. I used to laugh at the chechens and their incredibly stupid brutality.

When Russia was pounding the crap out of them, people all over the world rushed to help them. So chechens killed the helpers and made movies of beheading them at times.
