Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, territories of its former empire that were immediately declared independent sovereign nations as well as those whose status is yet to be determined have fallen prey to foreign and internal interests seeking to separate them from Russia. One such major area is the Caucasus land bridge sandwiched between the Black and Caspian Seas that since antiquity has been the interface between Europe and Asia. Some of the predominantly Turkic peoples have formed separatist parties seeking independence from Russia. International oil and gas interests want access and rights to exploit the mineral wealth and strategic position of the Caucasus. Indeed, the very geographic location of the Caucasus makes it a vital trans-Eurasian energy-transit route, delivering energy to the West.
The Caucasus itself is laterally divided into the South Caucasus (Transcaucasia), which includes the sovereign states of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, and the North Caucasus (Ciscaucasia) under Russian control that comprises the autonomous republics of Chechnya, Ingushetia, Dagestan, North Ossetia, and other small entities. Armenia and Georgia are ancient Christian states with equally venerable Caucasian Jewish communities coexisting over the centuries amidst a sea of Muslims. Conflicts have already erupted in Chechnya, Abkhazia, Nagorno-Karabakh, South Ossetia, and Ingushetia, and a major war has just been concluded between Russia and Georgia.
As M. Raphael Johnson has ably shown, the geopolitical and oil-gas interests of the outside powers have further distorted and aggravated the already complicated situation in the Caucasus. (“Israel, Oil and Death: The War for Ossetia.” Culture Wars, October 2008). The United States and Israel, supported by native Georgians, Christians and Jews, have aligned militarily against Russia, further alienating Christian Armenia from its Georgian Christian neighbor. Ever since the First World War and its aftermath Armenia has been especially indebted to Russia for having protected her against Turkic attacks. Today the Armenians see Israel and America supporting the Azeris in the Nagorno-Karabakh fighting. Independent Azerbaijan, with its famed capital Baku astride the Caspian Sea and one of the earliest oil cities, has a border contiguous with Armenia. Russia stations troops in the Armenian Gyumri military base and controls the air space over Armenia.
History buffs will recall that the German Army had reached the gates of Baku and Grozny in August 1942 in the hope of linking up with General Rommel’s army coming up from Egypt. But before the pincers could close the battles of El Alamein and Stalingrad intervened, and the Germans began a three-year retreat.
Rivka Cohen, the Israeli Ambassador to Georgia, is credited with coordinating Israeli and Caucasian Jewish activities as well as for making Tbilisi (Georgia’s capital) the base for Mossad operations in the Caucasus. As a consequence, an Armenian-Russian-Iranian alignment opposes what it sees as American and Israeli intervention in the area aimed not just at stifling pro-Russian sentiment in the smaller autonomous countries but at separating the Caucasus entirely from Russia.
The still simmering Russo-Georgian War over the status of Abkhazia and South Ossetia and the continuing Russo-Chechen ethnic conflicts have been and remain the most violent confrontations in the Caucasus to date. Israel and the United States have supported Georgian claims to Abkhazia and Ossetia with arms shipments and military advice while a group of Anglo-Jews in London, presumably with the tacit approval of the British government, has also been fanning the flames of war in Chechnya. Britain, after all, has been a leading player in the “Great Game” since the early 20th Century. The United States only began to intervene in the affairs of Georgia in earnest in about 1989 when U.S. Secretary of State James Baker, under President Bush, developed a close relationship with Eduard Shevarnadze, who at that time was Minister of Foreign Affairs under Mikhail Gorbachev. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union Shevarnadze first converted to the Georgian Orthodox Church and then went on to become president of the newly independent Georgian state, where he established a solidly pro-American policy.
One of Shevarnadze’s protégées in the Georgian government while he was president was Mikheil Saakashvili, who was to become president. In the mid 1990s, Saakashvili received the best grooming America had to offer. He received a fellowship from the U.S. State Department, studied at neocon stronghold George Washington University, obtained a degree from Columbia University, and a diploma from the International Institute of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. One year after serving as Minister of Justice under President Shevarnadze, he overthrew his erstwhile mentor in the so-called Rose Revolution and assumed the presidency.
However, not all the rough edges had been smoothed over in the United States. Saakashvili has been criticized at home for his occasional vulgarity. He has publicly made insulting comments about Russian women, and has labeled the Russians his “Mongoloid enemy.” He has also publicly referred to Blacks as savages and by the n-word, using the vulgar Georgian word ‘zangi’.
In 2004 Saakashvili made his first visit to Israel where he was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Haifa and hailed as the Nelson Mandela of the 21st century. A Georgian-Jewish Friendship Week was established. In 2007 Saakashvili reorganized his cabinet. He retained Prime Minister Lado Gurgenidze, who is a dual UK-Georgian citizen, but appointed a new defense minister, David Kererashvili, a Georgian Jew with friendly connections in Israel. Israel has a special interest in Georgia because of the flight distance and overflight rights en route to Iran, should Iran develop and deploy nuclear weapons.
His recent appointment to his cabinet of Vera Kobalia as Minister of the Economy and Sustainable Development has evoked considerable criticism because of her age (29) and lack of experience. Before joining Saakashvili’s cabinet, the young lady had lived in Canada until 2009, where she had worked in her father’s company, the European Breads Bakery. The current Georgian Ambassador to the United States is Temuri Yakobashvili, a proud Hebrew-speaking Zionist youth activist. He is co-founder of the Atlantic Council of Georgia and headed the Georgian Department for the United States, Canada, and Latin America.
After years of mutual recriminations, aerial and ground incursions into and over each other’s territory, a major war broke out on 7 August 2008 when Georgian forces attempted to reconquer areas in South Ossetia and Abkhazia that had attempted to escape Georgian control by seeking independence and Russian protection. The Georgians failed to take Tskhinvali, their initial target, and were eventually thrown back on all fronts. President Sarkozy of France mediated a ceasefire. The loss of Abkhazia, which occupies a long stretch along the Black Sea coast, will particularly handicap the U.S. Navy in any future attempts to supply our allies and our own forces in the Middle East. The ports it might have used will now be at the disposal of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
Since only a ceasefire exists and since the United States, Israel, Ukraine, and other states have hastened to resupply and rearm Georgia, and since Russia has done the same for its forces and allies in the area, the world can expect further bad news from the Caucasus.
Concurrently with the Russo-Georgian War, Russia and the original Turkic and Iranic indigenous peoples of Chechnya, Dagestan, the Crimea, and other areas in the south of Russia proper, which were forcibly incorporated in the Russian Empire in the early 18th century, have continued their long-standing conflicts. Ongoing strife between the Russians and the Muslim native peoples in the south peaked in the mid 20th century when Stalin ruthlessly deported these peoples to Siberia for collaborating with the German invaders. After the dictator’s death, however, the exiled peoples were permitted to return to their ancestral homelands nursing an even greater hatred of the Russians and determined more than ever to resist Russian imperialism.
In retaliation, Chechen opponents of Russian encroachments and domination have on occasion launched terrorist attacks against Russia as, for example, the Moscow Theater Seizure in October 2002 in which more than a hundred hostages were killed, and the Beslan School Seizure and Massacre in September 2004 in which some 300 hostages, including many children, were killed.
Aiding the Chechens in their endeavor to resist Russian control is the London Circle of exiled Russians headed by the Russo-Israeli dual citizen, Boris Berezovsky. Among others, the Circle includes or at one time included: Akhmed Zakayev, former Prime Minister (1997–2007) of the earlier unrecognized secessionist Chechen Republic; Aleksandr Litvinenko, former KGB and FSB operative who accused his superiors of wanting to assassinate Berezovsky and whose death by polonium radiation poisoning has directed world attention to the activities of the London Circle in opposing Putin’s policies and fanning the flames of rebellion in Chechnya; and Alex Goldfarb, dissident microbiologist, manager of the Soros Foundation in Russia and a friend of Litvinenko.
Berezovsky, who once was second in power only to Yeltsin in the transitional period from communism to capitalism, has a special interest in the mineral resources and prospective oil pipelines in Chechnya, disdains Putin for having exiled him and for having vigorously pursued the war against the Chechens. Berezovsky argued that a military solution was not possible and openly called for peace talks. It is well known that Berezovsky had and still has a special interest in the area and has been well informed about it by Badri Patarkatsishvili, his closest friend and most important business partner, now deceased. Patarkatsishvili is a Georgian Jew with Israeli connections who helped engineer the Rose Revolution that installed Saakashvili in the presidency.
Berezovsky also fell out with General Aleksandr Lebed, Yeltsin’s National Security Advisor at the time and himself a candidate for the presidency, because Lebed had successfully put an end to the first Chechen War (1994–1996)—Berezovsky preferring to keep the war going until a more favorable solution could be found. In September 1997 General Lebed announced that Soviet-made suitcase-sized nuclear weapons designed for sabotage “are not under the control of the Soviet Armed Forces.” Although the government of the Russian Federation denied Lebed’s contention, GRU defector Stanislav Lunev confirmed the allegation and believed that the deadly suitcases might already have been deployed. Just a few years later, before the question could be resolved, General Lebed, still a strong contender for the presidency of the Russian Federation, died in a helicopter crash, said to have been accidental.
In January 1999 Pravda indirectly accused oligarch Berezovsky of attempting to supply Chechen rebels with bacteriological and nuclear weapons of mass destruction. In a public statement Berezovsky said that indeed he had been approached by an individual named Zakhar who offered to purchase a compact nuclear device for three million dollars, but that he, Berezovsky, had immediately reported the incident to both the CIA and to Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), and he accused Chechen separatists of being involved. Zakhar in turn appealed to the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg to file a lawsuit against Berezovsky. Zakhar: “I am sure that Boris Berezovsky is capable of giving a command to use an A-bomb and then lay the blame for the attack on the Chechens. He can do it when he and his companions need it.”
When in November 2006 Litvinenko, a Muslim convert, was afflicted with and eventually died of polonium radiation poisoning, Berezovsky’s London Circle accused the Putin government of deliberately trying to murder him. Goldfarb, the microbiologist, helped diagnose the cause of death. Putin’s government quickly denied any involvement in the death. Astute observers also noted that polonium was an especially unlikely means of carrying out a hit and suggested instead that Litvinenko’s contact with the extremely rare element might very well have resulted from his involvement in a smuggling operation.
Readers of Frederick Forsyth’s 1984 novel The Fourth Protocol already know how the components of a nuclear device may be stealthfully brought into another country and assembled there. The readers also understand how polonium, when combined with lithium, can be used to make the initiator, or trigger, of the nuclear device. Was the Litvinenko case somehow related to the import or export of polonium for such a nefarious purpose?
Regardless of the validity of that possibility, both Russia and the current Chechen government believe that the border between the Russian Federation inclusive of Chechnya and the other Turkic peoples in the North Caucasus must be kept sealed. Were the border to be opened or become porous, all of Russia’s underbelly of Muslim states would be tempted to join with their brethren in the south and Middle East to free themselves from Russian control.
The current President of the Chechen Republic of the Russian Federation, Ramzan Kadyrov, is the son of the first president, Akhmat Khadji who was assassinated in 2004. He is a member of a clan that turned pro-Russian in 1999 at the beginning of the Second Chechen War.. In Ramzan, Russia and Putin have found a firm ally. Responding to a question on how he would avenge the murder of his father, Ramzan said:
I’ve already killed him, whom I was obliged to kill. And I will kill to the very last one those who remain behind him, until I am myself killed or jailed. I will be killing them for as long as I live… When my father was murdered, Putin came and went to the cemetery in person. Putin stopped the war; he should be made president for life. Strong leadership is needed. Democracy is an American fabrication.…Everyone was stealing then and only [Jewish oligarch] Khodorkovsky went to jail.
Ramzan Kadyrov and Vladimir Putin
Ramzan blames the first Chechen War on the Yeltsin-Berezovsky cabal. He attributes current incidents of insurgency to the CIA, the UK’s MI6, and Mossad infiltrators who bribe local bandits who know little or nothing about Islam with money and narcotics. President Ramzan writes:
They give narcotics to those who are responsible for the bloodshed; they then go out and bomb and blow themselves up…All of this is manipulated by Western hands. The Muslim world does not help them in this…The West wants to chop the Caucasus off from Russia. The Caucasus are Russia’s southern strategic border. If they sever the Caucasus from Russia, they are taking half of Russia. It was the Americans who created bin Laden and taught him the art of terrorism. Now they are sending groups of such foreigners to us. They are not “freedom fighters”; they are trained terrorists. We are fighting American and British Special Forces in the mountains. They are not just fighting Kadyrov. They are warring against traditional Islam. They are warring against the sovereign Russian State. Putin united Russia and saved her from chaos. He got rid of [Jewish oligarchs] Berezovsky, Gusinsky, and Khodorkovsky. You don’t really think they have forgiven him for that. They have launched a new attack on Putin, on Russia. They see Chechnya and Dagestan as weak links in the Russian State. Even some Russians do not understand. They say that Chechens are all terrorists. Putin has said clearly that the terrorists have no religion and no nationality. Many Chechens live in Europe, Turkey, and Georgia. It is from these that the West recruits terrorists and ships them to us.…We will not turn our country over to the Americans. We must live under a single roof. It is called Russia.…Let everyone know this: The Chechens will be the first to defend the Caucasus and Russia. [The Caucasus: Russia’s Strategic Border. Zavtra.No. 39(827), 23 September 2009. Interview with Ramzan Kadyrov; my emphasis]
Kadyrov is confident that the Kremlin recognizes Chechnya as the permanent and unchangeable southern border of Russia. He believes firmly that Putin, Medveyev, and Vladislav Surkov understand this. Surkov, Putin’s top aide and ideologue, was himself born in the Checheno-Ingush SSR. He is also presumably aware that his clan benefits greatly by establishing close relations with the Russians.
By geographic chance Chechnya, Iraq, Yugoslavia, and Afghanistan are some of the countries over which vital oil lines must pass. The United States holds no special animus against Muslims, and would definitely prefer not to war with the peoples of Islam. The United States has supported Albanian Muslims in Yugoslavia and now supports some Turkic and Iranic Muslims in the Caucasus. In doing so, the US has antagonized Christians in Serbia, Russia, Armenia and Georgia.
However, America, like the other great industrial countries, needs oil to survive in an increasingly competitive world and would much rather deal with obliging governments in the countries sitting on the mineral wealth. Indirectly, the indigenous peoples of the Middle East have become innocent victims of the Great Game simply because the “black gold” of the Game happens to be in their homeland. Add to that America and NATO have used dissident elements in the Caucasus, as in Ukraine, to further provoke, disrupt and possibly remove Russian control in those regions. The US builds military bases in East Europe and Georgia that it claims will protect us from the Iranians, which of course is nonsense and can only irritate the Russians. In reality, the Cold War never really ended. Indeed, the temperatures are heating up again. Just as the United States is sensitive to and finds unacceptable a potentially hostile power establishing military bases in America’s soft underbelly — the Caribbean — as the Cuba Crisis showed, Russia under present circumstances is justified in having the same concern in its own backyard.
The presence of Israel among the major world powers (UK, USA, Russia, China, India) contending for a stake in the Game may surprise some, but is easily understood. Israel is an important Near Eastern power. Her military power and monopoly on nuclear weaponry in the immediate area make her a regional power to be reckoned with. Moreover, Caucasian Jews have been in the area for centuries and have a long-standing familiarity with the region. Finally, since the Yeltsin Administration, Jews have become oligarchs by controlling much of Russia’s mineral wealth and, as noted above, there is continuing cooperation between Berezovsky and well-placed Georgian Jews aimed at controlling mineral wealth. In general, Jews are most likely to profit as middlemen in mineral-resources transactions between the major powers rather than act as producers, refiners, or even major consumers of oil.
Finally, although Israel is not a member of NATO, the United States maintains a special relationship with her economically, militarily, and financially. Because of this, other members of NATO fear being dragged into other Middle Eastern adventures against countries with whom they have had good relations.
Whether the United States can have it both ways in the Near East—enjoying peaceful, mutual beneficial relations with the Muslim world while at the same time maintaining its special relationship with Israel—is highly problematic but possible. Whether peace can settle in over the Caspian Basin and the Caucasian land bridge, where the treasure of the “black gold” is of such importance and of such a magnitude, is probably impossible.
Facing the Future as a Minority
Don’t get me wrong Boris Berezovsky is a very nasty piece of work
Berezovsky associates like Roman Abramovich are strongly suspected to have had people killed to gain control of the aluminium industry, then they were granted asylum in the UK on the grounds that had been the victim of antisemitism in Russia.
However Berezovsky’s man Litvinenko alleged all kinds of plots by Putin (including blowing up apartment blocks in false flag ops) but he overstepped the mark somehow and was targeted and killed by his ex comrades in the FSB.
‘Intelligence’ services spend most of their time spreading lies, disinformation is how they work. It is clear that Litvinenko was murdered by Andrey Lugovoy (FSB agent) for saying things about Putin. Alexander Litvinenko was worked for the Moscow branch of Murder Incorporated (ie Jewish gangsters) so I don’t have much sympathy. When Putin’s pals killed Litvinenko they used 10 million dollars worth of polonium and left a trail like an elephant in six feet of snow – hilarious. Overkill is the Russian trademark. Litvinenko, was murdered by the the Russian government Russia ‘backed Litvinenko murder’. Russia jammed radio stations that reported the news that the UK requested Lugovoi’s extradition. Litvinenko death fuels UK-Russia spy war.
The article is bad, it casts doubt on a central plank of Kevin MacDonald’s ideas about Jewish influence (ie that the Israel Lobby was responsible for the invasion of Iraq.) If it’s believable that ” international oil and gas interests want access and rights to exploit the mineral wealth and strategic position of the Caucasus.” and are fomenting war against Russia and its close allies to this end, then it follows that the Iraq invasion was probably mounted to to get control of resources in the same way. This article is propounding a Noam Chomsky type analysis, (ie Big Oil runs everything and Israel is a US attack dog used for controlling the oil rich Middle East).
I don’t see it that way. There is very good evidence for a role for the neocons and their Jewish loyalties in the Iraq war. The neocons are also very supportive of the abortive Georgian takeover of South Ossetia because they hate Russia, probably because of what Putin did to Khodorkovsky et al.
http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2008/08/the-neocons-versus-russia/
http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/?s=georgia&x=0&y=0
Oil isn’t the only motivation here and the article doesn’t say it is the only motivation. I thought the comments by Kadyrov on the Russian oligarchs (as having a central role out of revenge for what happened to the oligarchs) were interesting. But it’s reasonable to think that they also to control the mineral wealth.
I’d recommend Paul Klebnikov’s book in Berezovsky to anyone who wants a good grounding in the war in Chechnya. 90% of books printed in the West on the Chechen conflict are completely biased in favour of the Chechens. Klebnikov’s book is about Berezovsky and the oligarchs who committed the biggest robbery in the history of the world, but you will find masses of information on Chechnya. For instance, immediately prior to the war there was a brutal mafia war between Chechen gangs in Russia and the ‘native’ Mafia groups (largely Jewish) and Vor Y Zakone old school criminals (mostly Georgian). The Russian mafia who became the fear of the world were all but pushed out of Moscow by the Chechens- which shows how fearsome they were. The Chechen war broke out at the height of this war, and many of the Chechen mafia participated in it and later had roles in government.
Liberals later stated that this was an unfair demonisation of Chechens, sadly for liberals, the Chechens involved later actually boasted how they took control of the organised crime scene in Moscow and elsewhere.
There’s an excellent documentary on one of the Chechen mafia godfathers, Khoz Ahmed Noukhaev, where he gives a detailed account of his rise to the top of the mafia food chain, it is called ‘The making of an Empire’ watch it here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CYXpDpWSFk
He later became a top ambassador in the Chechen government.
The Chechen independence war was, to quote Klebnikov “a turf war writ large”.
I didn’t think of revenge, but yes, that is a credible motive for backing Georgia and the Chechen rebels. Like the way Japan was being financed by Jewish bankers in its 1905 war against Russia
I have posted the web link to this article on a website which keeps contact with the Boers who want to emigrate to Georgia.
I hope they are able to value the impact of this report to its fullest consequence. It shows an angle to Georgia that you do not read about in South Africa.
@Someday:
The desire for revenge is a central element in the psychology of Jews. You see it on nearly every page of the Old Testament,you see it in nearly every action of the state of Israel.It is always revenge,revenge and mostly vastly disproportionally so (salient example: in the war on Lebanon of 2006, 1400 people were killed and half of the country was destroyed,all as revenge for the “kidnap” of only three Israeli soldiers).Jews see revenge as a kind of divine justice since as a “chosen people” they own the world and everybody should be their slave.Resistance against that is seen as a crime that has to be severely punished.Since things do not exactly happen as they should and many peoples of this world resist stubbornly to be robbed and ruled by them, Jews remember all the “injustices” the world has ever done to them and eagerly wait for the day that final justice shall be done to them.That day will come when the messiah comes and will judge all the peoples of the world (from Jerusalem). All the peoples that ever did evil to the Jews will then be destroyed and the rest will for ever be their slaves.Religious Jews wait eagerly for that day.In the meantime Jews need not remain inactive and can when the opportunity arises already take a foretaste of the final revenge. These are the Jewish revenge actions you so often see in history.For a people with such a mentality history is a continuous chain of success-failure-revenge-success-failure-revenge without understanding “what is wrong with the world”.Any hint that it might have to do with their own mentality and behaviour is immediately dismissed as “antisemitism”, thus ensuring that they never learn.
The author of this article constantly refers to the “Great Game”. The Great Game is a game of geopolitics, not ethnic interests per se, as the article seems to imply. Of course, the Western powers (and Israel) have an interest in diminishing Russia’s sphere of influence from a geopolitical point of view.
I don’t see where Berezovsky enters the scene. The Berezovsky-Gusinsky-Khodorkovsky strategy has been abandoned long time ago. Jewish ethnic (incl. economic) interests in Russia are certainly not threatened by Putin’s philo-Semitic regime. So what if Berezovsky & co disappeared? There are plenty of co-ethnics around to deal with all sorts of “Great Games”.
Putin’s problem is that he has no ideology, no new ideas. His strategic thinking is just a copy of the ideas from the final phase of the Soviet empire. Nobody outside Russia wants a new Russian Empire. Nobody outside Russia shares his Soviet nostalgia for a new KGB state of “siloviki”. Even the intelligent part of the population in his own country has serious difficulties mobilizing any enthusiasm.
@Someday:Nuclear physicist Dr. Gordon Prather, a Reagan advisor, wrote an article on polonium shortly after the Liventenko “assassination”. He contended that polonium has a “nuclear fingerprint” and that the exact reactor where the polonium was produced could be identified by the IAEA. The caveat, of course, was that the IAEA would have to had inspected the reactor at one time. Since Russia is a non-proliferation signatory, all of its reactors have been inspected. Prather’s contention was that if the Brit’s really had something, they would have identified the Russian reactor at which the polonium was produced. Since they didn’t, his best guess was that it came from a reactor NOT inspected by the IAEA, like the one in the Negev desert.
@ JAMES ROBERTS:
Interestingly, I was told by an older Italian couple, who are in regular contact with Italian relatives, that the Mafia was being pushed out of some areas in southern Italy by the “Albanian refugees” who were supposedly fleeing the conflict in Yugoslavia.
The Italian Mafia, while violent, is not known to be as violent as the “Russian” Mafia, and apparently not the Albanian (Muslim) Mafia. My guess is that the Chechen and Albanian Mafia would have common roots.
Further to KM’s comments on neo-cons, Sniegoski’s book is also great:
http://www.4shared.com/document/900X2C6i/The_Transparent_Cabal.htm
There is only one mafia in the world. I would call it a Mega Mafia. Any talk in the media or in Hollywood productions about Italian or Japanese or whatever other mafias is there to distract us from the activities and crimes of the Mega Mafia whose major headquarters are in London and New York and, of course, Israel and which has hijacked practically all Western governments, the Vatican papacy included. I don’t think I have to tell anyone which ethnic group constitutes the main component of that big Mafia.
Senior IDF officer warns of ‘radical Islamic winter’ that may lead to regional war, could prompt use of WMDs; new, more lethal weapons discovered in hands of terrorists during latest round of fighting in Gaza, Major General Eisenberg says
Yoav Zitun
Recent revolutions in the Arab world and the deteriorating ties with Turkey are raising the likelihood of a regional war in the Middle East, IDF Home Front Command Chief, Major General Eyal Eisenberg warned Monday.
“It looks like the Arab Spring, but it can also be a radical Islamic winter,” he said in a speech at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv.
Recent revolutions in the Arab world and the deteriorating ties with Turkey are raising the likelihood of a regional war in the Middle East, IDF Home Front Command Chief, Major General Eyal Eisenberg warned Monday.
“It looks like the Arab Spring, but it can also be a radical Islamic winter,” he said in a speech at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv.
“In Lebanon, Hezbollah is growing stronger within government arms, but it has not lost its desire to harm Israel, and the ties with Turkey aren’t at their best,” Major General Eisenberg added.
Weapons of mass destruction?
Referring to what he characterized as the possibility of a “radical Islamic winter,” Major-General Eisenberg said: “This raises the likelihood of an all-out, total war, with the possibility of weapons of mass destruction being used.”
During his address, the senior IDF official revealed that new, more lethal arms surfaced in the hands of Gaza terror groups during the latest round of fighting in the area. As result of the disturbing development, Israeli civilians were instructed to adopt greater precautions, he said.
“We discovered a new weapon, and as result of this we instructed the public to hide under two roofs, rather than only one,” he said.
Eisenberg added that some 25% of local authorities in Israel are ill prepared to face emergency situations.
However, Major General Eisenberg’s words infuriated some security and defense officials, who slammed the senior IDF officer for revealing classified information and provoking regional tensions.
“It’s unclear why an IDF general heats up tensions in the region and why he exposes secret intelligence information about new Palestinian capabilities,” one official said.
Notably, Eisenberg’s remarks were approved for publication by censorship officials.

@Marianne:
That ethnic Mafia you hint at was formed some 3400 years ago in a desert of the Middle East when a group of brake away slaves met a horrible mountain demon who made a treaty with them and charged them to rob and rule the world as his chosen people.Since then they have been a major source of trouble on our planet.
@Old Glory:
On July 4, 2011, while speaking at the Royal United Services Institute in Whitehall, a pro-Israel London-based think tank with Jewish property tycoon David Abrahams as Vice-president – Major-General Danny Rothschild, director of the Institute for Policy and Strategy in Herzliya (Israel) told his paranoid pro-Israel audience that the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ is in fact the ‘Islamic Spring’.
http://rehmat1.wordpress.com/2011/07/14/israeli-general-its-an-islamic-spring-stupid/
Actually the Chechens are an Iranian people, as are most of the Caucasians, although linguistically they have definitely been influenced by the Turks. The Armenians predate all them
Franklin Ryckaert:
I’m inclined to say the breakaway slaves of 3400 years ago to which you refer weren’t slaves at all. I put it to you they were a kind of commercial elite for the Egyptian Phaero until he and his advisers discovered they had been robbed blind by them. Thus the ancient and unrepentant tribe of ruthless lying thieves and shysters weren’t escaping, they were expelled, just as they were to be expelled from every nation in which they settled right up to their last expulsion, in Nazi Germany commencing in 1934 when that enlightened Government went as far as barring the chosen shysters from employing female live-in domestics under age 45.
Naturally, to prevent the gently grazing goys from discovering their expulsion of long ago, they concocted their fabulous story which includes the ‘mountain devil’ they encountered in the desert which they turned into many Hollywood movies, most notably one with the late Actor Charlton Heston who could throw a stick at the Pharo’s feet which then turns into a large venomous snake.

“99% of Auschwitz Eyewitness Testimony Cannot Be Substantiated”

****************
“99% of Auschwitz Testimony Is Forensically Unsubstantiated”
The Jewish Auschwitz expert Robert Jan van Pelt wants to demolish the physical remains of Auschwitz Concentration Camp.
The pressure from the Islamic world to duplicate the Rudolf Expert Report and adopt its findings is growing from day to day, and van Pelt wants to hinder official state investigations at all costs.
In an interview with the Canadian newspaper The STAR on 27 December 2009, he urges that all the remains of ruined buildings at Auschwitz-Birkenau be completely demolished and removed.
In his opinion, only the buildings of the Stammlager (original camp) should be preserved.
(In his book AUSCHWITZ 1270 BIS HEUTE (Auschwitz 1270 Until Today) he admits that no gassings took place in the Stammlager.)
Van Pelt wants to put an end to forensic investigations of “Holocaust” at Auschwitz-Birkenau.
He advocates clearing the site even though the ceilings and ruins of the crematories (alleged homicidal gas chambers) are still present and available for investigation.
If homicidal gassings had taken place there, these ruins would exhibit high residues of Prussian Blue (insoluble compounds of Ferro cyanide).
These residues are traces of the deadly poison gas cyanic acid (marketed under the name “Cyclon B”), which was the principal insecticide before the discovery of DDT.
Such residues are simply not present in the alleged “homicidal gas chambers” morgue and crematoria, although they are bountiful in the walls and ceilings of the fumigation chambers where the Germans used Cyclon B to delouse blankets and clothing of inmates and staff.
The most sensational part of the STAR interview is van Pelt’s admission that none of the testimony of Auschwitz witnesses can be scientifically proven or forensically substantiated.
Countless “Holocaust” researchers over many years have been thrown in prison for making this very statement.
In 2009, the inquisitorial German courts sentenced lifetime dissident Horst Mahler, 73, to 13 years’ imprisonment for insisting that there is no empirical evidence to support “Holocaust Industry” claims of mass gassings or attempted genocide of the Jews.
Following are the most important passages from van Pelt’s interview in the STAR.
In the words of the Jewish Auschwitz expert Robert Jan van Pelt, “We have no material or forensic evidence to support eyewitness reports of gassings…
Ninety-nine per cent of what we know we do not actually have the physical evidence to prove [then how do ‘we know’ it!?]…
It has become part of our inherited knowledge.
I don’t think that the Holocaust is an exceptional case in that sense.
We in the future – remembering the Holocaust – will operate in the same way that we remember most things from the past
We will know about it from literature and eyewitness testimony…
We are very successful in remembering the past in that manner.
To put the holocaust in some separate category and to demand that it be there – to demand that we have more material evidence – is actually us [sic] somehow giving in to the Holocaust deniers by providing some sort of special evidence.
It has become part of our inherited knowledge.
(The Canadian STAR 27 December 2009.)
According to van Pelt, the “greatest mass murder in world history” should remain un-investigated!
He thinks we should rely exclusively on testimony of mass gassings by former inmates!
Dear reader, everyone should familiarize himself with these “eyewitnesses.”
Jürgen Graf’s book “AUSCHWITZ: TÄTERGESTÄNDNISSE UND AUGENZEUGEN DES HOLOCAUST” (Auschwitz: Confessions and Eyewitness Accounts of Holocaust) gives us some really eye-opening facts concerning the veracity of this “testimony.”
The witnesses would have us believe that what every normal and ingenuous person would consider lurid and fantastic is nevertheless factual.
In the course of the “Auschwitz Trials” (Record 50/Ks 2/63) in Frankfurt, which dragged on for years, neither exhumed bodies nor forensic investigations of the alleged homicidal gas chambers were presented as evidence, even though the so-called “Court” visited Auschwitz on several occasions to visually inspect the scene of the alleged crimes and interview witnesses.
Having dispensed with forensic evidence, the “Court” complained in its verdict about the lack of such evidence:
“An additional difficulty lay in the fact that the eyewitnesses – understandably – were seldom able to give exact descriptions of the time and place of specific events…”
This “Court” was almost completely lacking in all the evidence and methods of gathering information that are available in normal murder trials to form an accurate picture of events at the time of the alleged murders.
Try to imagine murder trials in which there are no bodies of victims, no autopsy reports, no expert opinions as to cause of death, no time of death, etc.!
There was no forensic evidence pertaining to perpetrators or weapons employed in the monstrous alleged crimes, and the Defense was very seldom allowed to question the witnesses.
(See Auschwitz-Urteil 50/Ks 2/63, page 109)
Think about it, dear reader.
Isn’t this incredible?
In its verdict the alleged Court admitted that van Pelt’s much-vaunted eyewitness testimony was inexact and could not be substantiated.
The following sentence is found on page 109 of the verdict:
“The witnesses, understandably, were seldom able to give exact information as to time and place of specific events…
Examination and validation of testimony was seldom possible.”
Thus the authenticity of the “Auschwitz Holocaust” was “proven” with generalized, imprecise witness testimony and a total lack of forensic evidence.
Anyone who points to the Diploma Chemist Rudolf’s EXPERT REPORT and demands free and open discussions goes to jail for many years, even for life.
And yet, the RUDOLF REPORT stands irrefuted, irrefutable.
In 1993, more than 300 professors of Inorganic Chemistry in the Federal Republic were unable to find a single mistake in Rudolf’s report.
The Swiss forensic expert Professor of Chemistry Dr. Henri Ramuz attested to Rudolf’s scientific competence, and the Director of the Jewish Anne-Frank Association, Hans Westra, admitted on the Belgian TV program PANORAMA on 27 April 1995: “The scientific analyses in the RUDOLF EXPERT REPORT are perfect.”
****************
I suggest people read Zbigniew Brzezinski’s The Grand Chessboard, to better understand that the real enemies of USA/Israel are not Iran and North Korea, but rather Russia and China. This is not about oil or mineral resources, it’s about world domination. A Jewish take-over, if you will, of the entire planet. The plan is laid out for you, right there in Brzezinski’s book, even if he does not use words like «Jewish world domination».
Another document of similar value here is the report «REBUILDING AMERICA’S DEFENSES» from the neocon think-tank «The Project for the New American Century». There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that these long-term plans for global conquest were laid as soon as the Soviet Union collapsed.
A good article in that it identifies Berezovsky as the key Jewish criminal masterminding the Western attempts to undermine Russia’s territorial integrity, but it misses the key Ukraine aspect of Berezovsky’s interventions.
By the way, Goldfarb is Berezovsky’s go-between with the Americans.
Some additional insights from some comments I made to Michael Colhaze’s recent article on Putin:
http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2011/07/of-russian-gangstas-global-mobsters-and-undersized-suckers-2/?cid=41823
“You mention South-Ossetia and of course, this brings me to what must be Putin’s crowning achievement in geopolitical strategy and yet another abject humiliation for the Jewish-led forces arraigned against him.
There were two components to the Jewish strategy to topple Putin. Firstly, the Orange revolution in the Ukraine, which was to a large extent financed by Berezovsky. This succeeded in toppling pro-Russian and pro-Putin Victor Yanukhovich and installing Victor Yushchenko and subsequently Julia Timoschenko. At the time this was seen as a great victory against Putin and encouraged plotters to activate the next stage of the plan – Georgia’s assault on the Russian province of South Ossettia. At the same time Yuschenko was threatening to revoke Russia’s rights to station its naval fleet at Sebastapol in the Crimean Peninsula. If carried through, this would have seriously undermined Putin’s credibility in the eyes of the military.
In order to bring the Americans on side with this Jewish-inspired and funded plan, the prospect of oil was dangled in front of their noses – the building of the Nabucco pipeline which would help undermine Russia’s dominance in the area of oil production and supply to Europe. Note the name of the pipeline: Nabucco, the title of Verdi’s first successful opera about the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar (you’ve all heard the famous Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves) who tried and failed to defeat the Jews and at the end of the opera ends up begging fogiveness from the God of the Jews.
The Americans then played their part: they persuaded Nato to push for Ukraine’s early entry into the alliance which again would have gravely damaged Putin. Finally, the Georgian part of the plan was activated (Georgia had had its own Jewish-funded Rose revolution back in 2003): Georgia would be crucial to the Nabucco pipeline, it would also seek early Nato entry, and to further rub Putin’s nose in it, they decided to launch an attack on South Ossetia.
Where are we now? Victor Yanukhovich is back in power in Ukraine. Russia has signed a new long term lease on the Sebastapol facilities. Timoschenko is on trial. Nato has ruled out the accession of Ukraine and Georgia to the alliance in the foreseeable future. The Nabucco pipeline is up in the air. President Sakashvilli of Georgia was humiliated by Putin and is now a figure of fun. His Minister of Defence at the time of the invasion of South Ossetia, Davit Kezerashvili, a jew, decided to permanently move to Israel last year. Rony Fuchs and Ze’ev Frankiel, a pair of Israeli criminals were recently sentenced to long prison terms in Georgia for attempting to bribe the Finance Minister, as Georgia publicly attempts to rid itself of the jewish plague which has so damaged its international standing.
Through all of this Putin showed commendable restraint and secured a complete and astonishing victory over the forces arraigned against him. As I say, he is a master strategist who has the full measure of the jew, domestic and international.
Berezovsky must be screaming in his bunker. “
“The August war in Georgia was part a strategy by Russia to heighten the risk premium that Western investors placed on non-Russian pipelines running through the Caucasus, and it paid off handsomely. By dropping bombs not 100 yards from the pipeline, Russia was able to spook investors, while avoiding diplomatic sanctions for damaging the pipeline. In the wake of the August war, both the BTC and Baku-Supsa oil pipelines were temporarily shut down.”

@Jonathan:
Chechens are of Turkic tribes, however, Croats are of Persian race.
One person whose name keeps popping up for sabotaging the Chechen resistance for his personal gains, is – Russian multi-billionaire Jewish media tycon and politician Boris Abramovich Berezovsky (born 1946), a critic of Russia’s ironman Vladmir Putin. Boris is wanted for arrest in both Russia and Brazil. Boris was a close friend of former KGB spy Alexander Litvinenko, who was poisoned with a lethal dose of radioactive Polonium-210 in a London sushi bar. Russian author, Paul Klebnikov has called Boris Berezovsky “Godfather of the Kremlin” in his 2000 book by the same name. Currently, Boris is reportedly backing the exiled Chechen politician Ahmed Zakayev, currently living in Britain……

@HSC:
Thank you for your insightful explanation of Caucasian politics and its Jewish manipulations.Still it is not clear to me why little Georgia attacked South Ossetia knowing very well that Russia would retaliate.I remember how at that time shabbos goy John McCain fully supported Georgia and how the lying Jewish press depicted Russia’s fully justified retaliation as the original aggression,so international Jewry was certainly behind it.Still I don’t understand what they thought to accomplish with it.Did they really think little Georgia could win a war with Russia?
@Jonathan:
WRONG!
The Chechens are NOT an Iranian people The only people in the Caucasus of Iranian origin are the Ossetians.
The author of the article is also wrong.
The majority of the people of the Caucasus with the exception of Azerbaijan and smaller tribes in Dagestan are not Turkic, but form a group of whites which do not belong to either the Aryan (Iranian) or the Turkic groups. The Cirkassians are a prime example of that.
Later the term “Caucasian” came to be applied to all whites.
One should be more careful and precise in writing articles.
Excellent and thought-provoking. Of course there are multiple reasons for anything this big — oil, Israel, and many different strains of ethnic and economic rivalry. This is linked and commented on by Ex-Army here:
http://ex-army.blogspot.com/2011/09/caucasus-snake-pit.html
Natural resources are only a minor cause of the turmoil in the Caucasus. Humans are pack animals, and nearly all strife in the world relates to racial/ethnic/religious differences. The Machiavellian Great Game in the Caucasus is a losing cause for Russia and the West. All of Russia’s “allies” in the region are not worth the bones of a single Russian grenadier. Russia needs a 50 foot titanium wall along its southern border, as does the United States.
The Neocons Versus Russia is clearer than this article about what lies behind the problems Putin is having in his relations with the West. I think the article leans too heavily on the oil angle and the alleged strategic importance of the Caucasus area. War in the Caucasus is basically down to the clannishly ethnocentric nature of the notoriously vendetta-minded peoples of the Caucasus. Solzhenitsyn in the Gulag Archipelago talks about Chechens being uncontrollable even in the camps.
Attempting to separate the Caucasus entirely from Russia would mean war with Russia and because of the weakness of Russia’s military there would be an excellent chance of the Russians resorting to nukes. Britain and the US wouldn’t dream of provoking ‘the Bear’ in that way. I think Saakashvili has taken his liberal backers for a ride.
West begins to reevaluate Saakashvili
From FORBES:
Gordon G. Chang, 06.16.10, 12:38 PM EDT
Afghanistan’s resources raise the stakes in Central Asia.
This week the U.S. Defense Department revealed that Afghanistan possesses at least $908.9 billion in untapped mineral resources. Iron accounts for $420.9 billion of the total, and copper $274.0 billion. There is cobalt, gold and molybdenum. The country could become, according to a Pentagon memo, the “Saudi Arabia of lithium.” Just as interesting, there is niobium, used to make superconducting steel.
So it wasn’t to educate the woman and allow kite flying again.
@Curmudgeon:
Some Serbian historians equate ancient Caucasian Albania, which was roughly in the modern Azerbaijan region to today’s Albania, using linguistic similarities but it’s hard to say.
Both Albanians and Chechens have the strong clan identity and are now Muslim. The Albanians have challenged the Italian mafia on their home turf and the Chechen mafia once pushed out the mostly Jewish mafia and old Vor y Zakone criminals (Georgian etc) out of Moscow, so whether they are genetically related is not sure, what is sure is that they are both terrifying organisations, if you consider the rivals they almost superceded.
@Frank Edwin Stone:It’s a very complex topic. The Ossetians see themselves as descendants of the Alans, who were part of the mass migrations who swarmed into Europe in the wake of the Huns. The Alans were initially the senior partners in the alliance with the Vandals and other groups,
Genetically though it’s a wasp’s nest of intricacy, as the Caucasus have seen endless waves of Turk, Mongol and other Asian invasions (e.g the Avars of Dagestan) and even Alexander the Great’s armies. Cossacks too. In recent times Grozny was 50% Russian until the ethnic cleansing, so with mixing with Slavs occurred with the Cossacks and the 20th century saw many Chechens (almost exclusively males) marry White Slavs. Kadyrov is an example of such a union.
Here is an interesting very recent article on the Russian/EU v’s Zionist/Mason fight over control of energy resources going into the EU .
http://atimes.com/atimes/Central_Asia/MI09Ag01.html
The more one looks at the British-US world machinations the more one sees that they are the bad guys (unfortunately) . It looks to me that the Jewish pathology of control is completely reflected in an inability to trust anybody they can’t manipulate . We constantly here the word ‘friend’ used by Western leaders but the older I get the more this word is really just an a synonym for puppet . Either you will be our FRIEND or we will terrorize you–Just the sort of friends one want to have.
Friends are equal but this is not how the Zionist view anybody.
@Rehmat:
Croats are South Slavs.
Marvelous Spirit
Some may read my earlier comments as mere ravings .
I lived in Bangkok for a few years and had to go regularly to Malaysia for Passport renewal . Malaysia is divided by Multiculturalism –Chinese & Indians are the brains and work horses and Malays ,the self designated Rulers , who are totally outclassed in the modern functions that make up a technological state and this was the reason why the colonial British brought in the others . BUT what we see in this modern state that doesn’t have an autocratic boss is veiled resentment between the 3 different races. Both the Chinese and Indians resent being discriminated against to give Malays Governmental control . The Indians resent the Malays even more because Malaysia used to be Hindu until the King converted ( as similar tactic used by the Zionist–control the head of state) . Here you have 3 incompatible people and cultures (Blacks etc and Muslims in Europe ? ) . The resentment is most obviously observed in the banking staff when I went to cash money — the Malays bridle and being under infidel management –to put it bluntly . What do you think is going to happen in Europe in 100 years time ? I know the lazy Goy reply , who knows what will happen in 100 years time ! Yet these same people organize their infrastructure and resource control this far ahead–perhaps 50 years , but it seen they don’t give a dame about their genetic future–Absurd– The reality is their reply is really resignation . The Zionist have destroy our ethnic unity deliberately to control us and the Masons and their Royal management are to frightened to even squeak . They know they are dealing with psychopaths for whom ‘friends’ means puppets . You can either be our puppets or be our enemies and because we are so cleaver which means that we have already projected the war and the resolutions and so now this minute we are organizing your demise. This is of course Judaism , the religion that doesn’t forgive in the hands of paranoid lawyer types ( Zionists are like psychopaths ) that have deduced all outcomes ( The Cabbala reflects this psychology) and then assume , in their own twisted minds , the only resolution–War! Go have a look at the Israeli Debka sight if you don’t believe this –Armed to the teeth , they have backed themselves into a corner ( The Flotilla ) and the only people they can trusts are puppets–the paranoid vision of annihilation that is a part of their religion.
Burma is also in a similar way to Malaysia , split by tribal religious ethnic differences . And when resource competition blights ; the road goes one way .
So the Question I want to know is WHO the hell authorized the European People and their lands to be split by this factor ? And WHO in the hell is going to put a stop to it ! Who wants to live in the Britain of the future ? A country were big brothers gaze is everywhere , where the wrong gesture , the wrong look , the wrong word will be recorded for quality control purposes –A totalitarian state of the near future . Where ‘The News’ is just social adjustment information and reality and ‘truth’ is only for the Alphas to acknowledge .Where society becomes highly regimented to ensure social compliance–We already see this being introduced in Australia under the guise of ‘Work Place health and safety’ , where the peasants all where brightly orange luminescent shirts to cloak any racial differences , and quell any social jealousy . Remember the peasant have no people , they are just a business factor , again this is cloaked by Social Adjustment TV (with inbuilt cameras) that record what you watch–profiling– the Future is for our benefit . This is a world where ‘compassion’ become becomes a wedge , that by making people sensitive and un-stoic is divide and rule , again & again . In this Zionist world , no one is left to chance — good animals / bad animal is a statistical fact of the race police– the ADL Intopol will soon always be with us . I don’t want the Zionist or there shitty world . This is the Brave New World Multicultural Order of the ‘West’ . Disgraceful . And I am not going to roll over and take it.
And to back up what is being destroyed have a look at the Book ‘Europe Between the Oceans by Barry Cunliffe and see what a long heritage is being destroy by these New Age Dreamers ( Mason Cracked Pottery ) and their delusions of the Age of Aquarius–Replacement for the USSR .
The lights are going out all over Europe and America . Its the light in our peoples eyes as they look into the future of their culture & race being divided & replaced . Soon hopefully those lights will come back on , The lights of Anger , with the heart to block this monstrous plot .

Nationalities in the Caucasus are rather complex and mixed, however linguistically the Ossetians (and Armenians) are Indo-European, the Chechens, Circassians Abkhazians, Dagestanis etc are branches of the North Caucasus grouping, the Georgians South Caucasian, and the Azeris and some others (eg Kalmyks) Turko-Mongolic. The (ethno-linguistic) Caucasians are linguistically unrelated to any other known extant people, and not even clearly related amongst themselves eg North vs South. Chechen however has a large percentage of borrowings from Russian, though there is no mutual intelligibility. Religion is another complicating factor. It is for its size one of the most complex areas in the world, a bit like New Guinea, mountainous regions tend to encourage and preserve local diversity far more than lowlands. The Russians have had problems there for well over a century on account of it, and they formed a barrier that the Wehrmacht was unable to cross in its quest for the oil of Baku, which had it fallen into Hitler’s hands might have changed the course of history. A strategic region even today.
Along with warlord Labazanov, the shake-down-artist-cum-self-styled-Chechen-ideologue Khoz Ahmed Noukhaev was an FSB asset.
Moreover, the most notorious and fearsome Chechen warlord Basaev had been working for the Russian GRU since the late 1980s.
Arguably, the most gruesome among their kidnappers and murderers was a literal FSB card carrying asset named Baraev.
And btw, the second Chechen campaign was a Western project top to bottom and bottom to top.
It’s hard for most of the Russians and Georgians that their countries are controlled by rich Jewish minorities – both economically and politically.
Both Washington and Tel Aviv are using covert Al-Qaeda hoax to spread their influence over Muslim-majority Caucasus. It was Washington and Tel Aviv which engineered the Georgia-Russia military conflict in order to punish Moscow for its close relations with Tehran. Both the US and Israel are known for training and arming Georgian armed forces. There are over 1000 Israeli military personnel in Georgia involved in training Georgian army and intelligence agency. Both Georgia’s Defence Minister David Kezerashvili and State Minister for Territorial Integration Temur Yakobashvili (a former Zionist leader and speaks fluent Hebrew) are Jewish and hold Israeli citizenship.
On May 24, Geogia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Nono Kalandadze has tried to calm down the US, Israel and EU’s itchy nerves by assuring the anti-Iran trio that Tbilisi is trying to build better trade relations with Tehran without risking the interests of its old allies. She said: “We have strategic partners, such as the United States as we maintain constant dialogue with them. We don’t believe this will cause any problem (in US-Georgia relations)”.
Georgia is also building close relations with another emerging power in the Middle East and Caucasus. Turkey’s Prime Minister Recepe Tayyip Erdogan paid a visit to Tbilisi early this month…..

@Jarvis Dingle-Daden
What absolute shit you are writing which is an old conspiracy long debunked.
Basayeav was used by Russia to support militants during the Abhkazian-Georgian war but after that was working against Russia.
Basayeav is a Turkish, CIA, British, Georgian asset.
The others were part of the regime of the military dictator of Chechnya General Dudayev.
