| Chechen and Tatar Muslims take up arms to fight for Ukraine |
| 2022-03-26 |
| [DW] Chechen warlord and Putin ally Ramzan Kadyrov boasted of his soldiers' part in Russia's war in Ukraine. But many Chechen and Tatar Moslems are defending Ukraine and settling scores with the rulers of their homelands. The number of these fighters deployed to Ukraine is unknown, but their reputation for brutality and ruthlessness in enforcing domestic rule is well-known, and their presence has raised memories of grisly urban combat and guerilla fighting from the Chechen wars in the 1990s and early 2000s. Head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov, known as one of the most loyal allies of President Vladimir Putin |

| #11 I've found the prop and agents of all sides rather disappointing. Ukraine to Russia: I'll see your Isis/Hezbollah and raise you a Chechen/Mongol Roster is starting to reach ScyFi movie levels. |

| #6 Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham or HTS is a designated terrorist organization the Syrian grunts of which have been massacred by Russian and other forces, justifiably so. I'm sure many moslems wanna get back at Russia. Some chechens would too. I never understood Kadyrov's loyalty to the Kremlin, probably a typical moslem opportunist thing. What I appreciate is the large numbers of moslems being used as fodder. You have to like that. |

| #4 Trolls be trolls, as they say. Looks like the 2nd shift at the farm has started. Pro tip: don't use all capitals as it makes you sound like a lunatic. Minor quibbles: NATO and Rantburg need capital letters |

| #3 /\ Just as a point of clarification; the term "Russian Troll" and.... "Deep State Troll" are frequently used interchangeably. |

Even after many readers complained in the comments section,about the continuous barrage of British or nato fake articles lately rantburg is continuously linking nato or cia disinformation articles and aggregate this trash as news this is anti-American, Stop pushing your racist Russophobia fake news and shilling for the criminals in the nato cia globalists! IT MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A INCOMPETENT OR A LIAR |
