Interesting tidbits about the terror network in Dagestan
Igor Dobayev, a terrorism expert with the Russian Academy of Sciences discussed a report he wrote that was issued Friday. It stated that militants carried out 70 attacks in Dagestan in the first six months of this year and that there are about 300 âinstructors and treasurersâ from other countries, mainly Saudi Arabia, Algeria and Jordan - and with links to al-Qaeda (Iran) are working with the terrorist organizations in the North Caucasus.
That is why my most important recommendation is that the U. S. and Germany arrange industrial assistance to Russiaâs military. The main front is here. When Teheran realizes they cannot defeat Russia arrangements will begin to end the war. But if it takes Russia two more years to strengthen its border the Jihad will have some easy major successes. Access to raw materials in Central Asia could be cut off. Early 1997 a Russian official admitted that if Russian armed forces continue to deteriorate Moscow could lose control of the area from the Urals to the Far East.
