Eto dlya tebya, gospodin Petukhov.
http://www.kavkaz.org.uk/eng/article.php?id=2643 LONDON - Several human rights groups are condemning what they say are widespread abuses in the Russian republic of Chechnya and refugee camps in neighbouring Ingushetia. The groups, including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, say they have new evidence of rape, torture and summary execution of Chechen civilians by Russian troops. "The climate of abuse and impunity in Chechnya is now spilling over into Ingushetia and threatening stability there, too," said Anna Neistat, Moscow director for Human Rights Watch, in a statement on the organization's website. "Russia's assurances of 'normalization' in the region should no longer obscure the vision of the international community. A resolution on Chechnya and Ingushetia will send the message that these continuing abuses must stop." Russia insists that life in the breakaway republic is slowly returning to normal after several years of war. But the groups reject Moscow's line, saying the cycle of violence is escalating. "The government is using a mixed policy of threats and incentives to get the displaced persons to return (to Chechnya), with blatant disregard for their well-founded fears about security," said Neistat. Chechen leader Aslan Maskhadov said the West ignores Russian abuses in Chechnya and branded its concern for human rights a sham. "I think the international community's behaviour towards Chechnya is immoral," he said in an interview published on Thursday on Chechen Press website Memorial, the only major rights group active in Chechnya, said 78 people were abducted in Chechnya, 41 of whom then disappeared, in the first three months of 2004. Rights groups blame many of these abductions on Kadyrov's forces. Maskhadov said Washington ignored Russian violations for its own reasons. "The Americans are playing their own game with Russia and, unfortunately, often play the Chechen card," he said. "I do not doubt that they are well-informed about what real terrorism is." Maskhadov was elected president of an effectively independent Chechnya in 1997 shortly after his guerrillas fought the Russian army to its knees. |

Be a good little neocon boy and get with the Program. The deal is this. America does not exploit the CIS's problems in Chechyna then the CIS doesn't exploit the USA's problems in Iraq and Afghanistan. If you want to give the Russians a hard time about Chechyna (which is after all part of their empire) then expect to find a things hotting up in the UN and world opinion as the effective Russian propaganda machine gets going. The Rusians would hate to see a Stinger SAM turn up in Chechnia as much as the American would hate to see an SA-16 MANPADS or Koronet ATM somehow find it's way to Iraq. Personaly I find it reprehensible the way the west has exploited the problems their Christian and White European brothers have experienced. We have since the Crimean war used Muslims to create problems for Bulgarians, Russians, Serbs etc. It will backfire. |

I'll do that if you promise to be a good remedial observation student and pay attention to the spew of constant anti-US screed from a certain poster in Russia. It's called satire; look into it. --Mike |

The peoples of the USA and Russia should have more in common. At the moment it is good that the bear and the eagle have got each other by the Scrotum. |
