>>>Putin believes that it is better to do than to be seen to perhaps do. I believe that there is a story of an Islamist group who took a Russian Special Force commando hostage and were playing tough guy with Putin.

Putin apparently kidnapped a very high ranking Islamist from the area and had him videotaped being thrown into a furnace. I think that that area got really peaceful for a long while.<<<

It was in Beirut, Lebanon circa 1985 long before Putin took power.
Palestinians were annoyed with a presence of foreign operators in Beirut and demanded withdrawal, the French has evacuated theirs while both CIA and KGB haven’t. As a result terrorists have abducted a CIA station chief Willy Franc Buckley as he was leaving home for work and also captured a Soviet diplomat believed to be an undercover KGB agent.
Soviets delivered ultimatum to Hizballah demanding release of their man and airlifted Alpha (anti-terrorist) and Vympel (terrorist) groups to Beirut who briefly identified the terrorists and abducted a number of their revatives. Palis were outraged and threatened to execute their hostage but later this day Vympels captured a brother of their leader, amputated his genitals and sent to the rest of terrorists.
At that point KGB has won as their blindfolded man was dropped out of the car in the downtown alive.
Unfortunately, it hasn’t helped Buckley (RIP) who was executed by terrorists shortly after.

This could mean a stream of Muslim “refugees” coming into America and we’ll be stuck with more terrorists.
