Steven Seagal hopes to become part of Chechnya
2013-10-07

Pretty sure the bloody combatants in Chechnya would like nothing better than to turn his ass into mulch...
Hollywood star Steven Seagal said he hopes to become a part of Chechnya in the future and that leader of the republic Ramzan Kadyrov would always be his friend.

Speaking at the at a gala concert for the 195th anniversary of the republic's capital of Grozny, Seagal thanked Kadyrov for inviting his family to the event, which coincided with the Chechen leader's 37th birthday. Seagal also called Kadyrov the great leader of the republic and praised his father Ahmad, who became the leader of Chechnya in 2003 but was assassinated in a terrorist attack in May 2004.

This wasn't Seagal's first visit to Chechnya this year. In May, he met with Kadyrov at his residence in Grozny and Kadyrov later said that Seagal was "almost a Chechen" national.

Pompous festivities dedicated to the anniversary of Grozny and Kadyrov's birthday on October 5 are often attended by foreign celebrities. Last year the celebrations were attended by French actor Gerard Depardieu and in 2011 by Hollywood stars Jean-Claude Van Damme and Hilary Swank.

#7  Steven Seagal better think about this. Read a little recent Chechnya history and see if he is man crazy enough to be a part of it.
