                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[O&#039; People of brain, learn the truth and do not tell the lie. <BR> <BR> <BR>By Leo Tolstoy on Thursday, November 4, 1999 - 07:00 pm: <BR> <BR>I like to answer here on few questions and comments. <BR>First I will tell about myself. I am Caucasian -Dagestani, native of  <BR>Dagestan, ethnic Dargin, not Chechen. I live out of former USSR since <BR>1987,  <BR>was back in Dagestan visiting last year, in 1998. <BR>Now about so called invasion of Dagestan by Chechens in last August. <BR>There  <BR>is different side of the story. In Dagestan there is conflict between <BR>local  <BR>government and local communities. Dagestani government is 100% criminal <BR>and  <BR>corrupted. And this government is supported by Kremlin, because they <BR>are  <BR>loyal to Moscow. It does not mean that Dagestan is loyal to Moscow. <BR>That is why in Dagestan Islam is getting stronger, as a refuge from <BR>mafia.  <BR>During first Chechen war Dagestani government sided with Kremlin, and <BR>at the  <BR>same time many Dagestanis fought on Chechen side against Russian army. <BR>Last August conflict in Dagestan was not started by Chechens, but it <BR>started  <BR>when local villagers in Tsumadinsky district of Dagestan, ethnic avars, <BR> <BR>declared independent Islamic state and declared Dagestan to be <BR>independent.  <BR>Local pro-Moscow Government sent there police force which was beaten. <BR>The  <BR>leaders of this uprising were: Adallo Aliev, ethnic avar - Dagestani <BR>poet,  <BR>Bagautdin Magomedov - islamic theologist and ethnic dargin, and Nadir  <BR>Khachilaev , ethnic lak , who previously in May 1998 took government  <BR>building in Dagestan&#039;s capital - Makhachkala. Those people formed core <BR>of  <BR>uprising against present government of Dagestan, which still consists <BR>from  <BR>former communist nomenclatura. At this stage there was no Chechen  <BR>involvement in this conflict. Dagestani government asked for help <BR>Moscow who  <BR>despatched there armed forces. Also local pro-Moscow mafiosos started  <BR>forming there own forces, which they presented as a Dagestani <BR>volunteers. <BR>Now, - on the Chechen side of border there are some mountain villagers <BR>where  <BR>live ethnic avars, not ethnic chechens. Theoretically , they live in  <BR>Chechnya but they are of Dagestani origin - ethnic avars. When they saw <BR> <BR>police moving against civilians in avar area in Dagestan, those avars <BR>from  <BR>Chechen side came to help their kin on Dagestani side. Then russian <BR>army was  <BR>moved against what they called islamists. Then by independence leaders- <BR> <BR>Adallo Aliev (avar) and Bagautdin Magomedov (dargin) was formed Shura  <BR>(Counsel) of Independent State of Dagestan. And they invited Shamil <BR>Basaev  <BR>to be as a military leader, to make Moscow scared. And this is how <BR>Chechens  <BR>got involved in Dagestan. So, I as Dagestani like to say here, that <BR>there  <BR>was no invasion of Chechens into Dagestan. Basaev was invited by Shura <BR>to  <BR>fight against army. What people say now in Dagestan (I am staying in <BR>touch  <BR>all the time) that - there was manipulation by federal government to <BR>start  <BR>all this conflict. In June - July local comminities in Dagestan were  <BR>increasingly harrased by police as to provoke them. <BR>When you are saying that Chechens invaded Dagestan, then you are just  <BR>repeating russian media, the official russian version. <BR>Now, I like to say here something more. After those avar villagers, who <BR> <BR>declared independence in Western Dagestan were exterminated, - the <BR>Dagestani  <BR>government used russian army to exterminate dargin villagers in <BR>Karamakhi  <BR>and Chabanmakhi. This is ethnic dargin area, where my people live, it <BR>is in  <BR>central Dagestan, far away from Chechnya. They declared two years ago <BR>that  <BR>they do not live under local government rule and expelled police from <BR>their  <BR>settlements two years ago. The basis of conflict here was that this <BR>people  <BR>came into direct conflict with Head of Dagestan&#039;s government <BR>Magomed-Ali  <BR>Magomedov. This man is the biggest narco-boss in Dagestan, 70% of drugs <BR> <BR>produced in Dagestan are under his control. Two years ago villagers in  <BR>Karamakhi (who are ethnic dagrins) cut his puppy fields. And the joke <BR>is  <BR>that Magomed-Ali Magomedov is himself ethnic dargin, and he promised <BR>two  <BR>years ago to finish those his dargin co-ethnics who against him. And he <BR>used  <BR>Russian army to erase from earth&#039;s face those two dargin villagers last <BR> <BR>september. Do you know that they collected about 400 bodies of children <BR>and  <BR>women from those villages and droped them into the Caspian sea on the <BR>border  <BR>with Azerbaijan, to hide any evidence? That is what my relatives tell <BR>me  <BR>from Dagestan. <BR>Now about Chechens helping Nazi during WWII. <BR>Do you know that in the famous Brest, where soldiers fought against <BR>invading  <BR>German army long after fashists pushed far into USSR in 1941, absolute  <BR>majority of those soldiers were Chechens, Ingushs and Dagestanis. My <BR>own  <BR>relative was there, there were very few ethnic russians. Majority of <BR>those  <BR>who fought to death there - were Caucasians, that is why they did not  <BR>capitulate. <BR>You are perverting facts. <BR>PS- I use name of Leo Tolstoy, because I really love this russian <BR>writer. If  <BR>there were more russians like him, then russian nation will have chance <BR>to  <BR>build democracy. <BR> <BR> <BR>Chechens, Dagestanis and Ingushs served in the Soviet Army which was  <BR>stationed in Brest after USSR annexed that part in 1940. Absolute <BR>majority  <BR>of the soldier&#039;s garrison in Brest consisted from Caucasians. This is  <BR>historical fact. Why it never was published during Soviet time. Well, <BR>there  <BR>were many facts which were never published under comminists. <BR> <BR>If you served in the former Soviet Army then you should know that is <BR>the  <BR>policy to sent conscripts to serve away from their home area. For <BR>example  <BR>Dagestanis does not serve in Dagestan, all local garrisons consist from <BR> <BR>ethnic russians from as far as Far East. <BR> <BR>Now about Nazi sympatizers between Chechens. <BR>You forgot that there were Nazi sympatizers between all nations in the  <BR>former USSR, not only Ukrainians or Chechens, but also Russians and <BR>others.  <BR>And the reason was Stalin&#039;s oppresion. <BR> <BR>You also forgot that there were recently threats against Jewish <BR>Sinagogas in  <BR>Moscow from russian extremists. <BR> <BR>There are criminals in every nation, including Russian, Chechen, Jewish <BR>or  <BR>Dagestani. But it does not make those nations criminal. <BR> <BR>If you ever being to Caucasus and lived there for a while, then you <BR>will  <BR>notice that people of Caucasus do not hate Russians or Jews, which I <BR>can not  <BR>say about Russia itself. It is because we have dignity. And we know <BR>what  <BR>means words "honour" and "self-respect" <BR> <BR>The rise of crime is not characteristic to Chechnya or Caucasus alone. <BR>You  <BR>forgot about contract murders in Moscow and other parts of Russia. <BR>Somehow  <BR>you are using facts out of their context only to present the point of <BR>view  <BR>which suits you. Then I have to conclude that you hate Caucasians for <BR>some  <BR>only to you known reason and are using this web site not for <BR>constructive  <BR>dialogue, but to spread your hate. <BR> <BR>I do not want to insult you over the web because I respect myself. <BR> <BR>Present escalations of conflict in Caucasus are symptoms of <BR>de-colonization  <BR>of Russian state. <BR> <BR>Some time in the future, after this and may be more bloody wars, <BR>Chechnya,  <BR>Dagestan and Nothern Caucasus will be Independent State. <BR> <BR>World will applaud to Chechnya and to Caucasus.]]></content:encoded>

<BR> <BR> <BR>Taliban Urges Help for Chechens  <BR> <BR>By Kathy Gannon  <BR>Associated Press Writer  <BR>Monday, Jan. 31, 2000; 2:58 p.m. EST <BR> <BR>KABUL, Afghanistan –– Muslim nations should be ashamed for not helping Chechen militants in their fight against Russia, the Taliban&#039;s foreign minister said Monday, but refused to confirm reports that Afghan troops are fighting in Chechnya.  <BR> <BR>"They are my brothers. They are Muslims," Wakil Ahmed Muttawakil said in an interview with The Associated Press. "They are not terrorists they are fighting for their freedom, for their independence against Russia."  <BR> <BR>Muttawakil, however, declined to say what help his government has offered the Chechens.  <BR> <BR>But a senior Taliban commander said Taliban troops have gone to Chechnya and are led by one of the Taliban&#039;s best-known commanders, Maulana Dadallah. The troops left Afghanistan for Chechnya 20 days ago, said the commander, who spoke on condition of anonymity.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[The leaders of the Russian orthodox church are blessing the murder of the Chechen people. On a requiem for the Russians killed in Chechnya Patriarch Aleksiy II extolled the "glorious Russian army in its Holy War against terrorism". <BR>The Chechen side estimates the activities of the Russian orthodox church and the outspokenly fascist declarations of its leadership as clear sign that the war in Chechnya bears the character of a crusade against a Muslim people. <BR> <BR> <BR>The Chechen deputy prime-minister Akhmed Zakayev pointed out that in the former USSR it is widely known that Aleksiy is a KGB-FSB cadre member. He is said to have been involved into the murder of various critical clerics of the Russian orthodox church.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Russians are getting kicked and killed like chicken by their own guns <BR> <BR>In Argun Valley the Russians tried to charge the Chechen defence positions near the old path to Surat. So-called paratroopers tried to move from Alkhazurov into this direction. The Chechens allured the enemy into the depth of their positions, encircled them, attacked, and wiped out the Russian unit. A great amount of equipment has been captured. Among it was a special gun of which the Chechens instantly made use: they shot down a Russian helicopters using a special 12,7-mm gun. One Russian airplane was damaged and was forced to an emergency landing near the Chechen positions. The crew was shot on the spot, the plane was blasted. The Chechens lost two mujahideen, the Russians 60 men in the operations in Argun Valley.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[dmitri: <BR>maybe he was crazy or not, all of the rulers were crazy or different from everybody else. that&#039;s a good question: what would he do with all that.  <BR>i belive that germany, even if it would conquer russia, europe, england and africa. it would not be able to hold it together. there was just no way to control such a big land masses with only few millions. and don&#039;t worry: he would be either shot by some other nazi who would want to get to power. just as stalin was poisoned. <BR>and about jews: i don&#039;t want to go into that too much, because i don&#039;t know too much about that.  <BR> <BR>as for russian-chechen conflict: it&#039;s slowly ending, rebels will not hold forever. few weeks, and then they will run and hide into some other countrie, regroup. it will get quiet, and then after few years, there will be another war maybe, and again many russians will die for nothing. because these rebels will be coming and coming. and it&#039;s always harder to fight against fanatics, who fight and are not afraid to die, than to fight regular army.  <BR>that&#039;s what i think.]]></content:encoded>
