#1 He was a band leader too, huh? Was he with the Talking Heads too, or some other group?

#3 Oh for pete's sake, Russia has the same pussies as we do here in the states.

"... risked further radicalizing the resistance..."

How the HELL more radical can they get besides TORTURING, RAPING, and KILLING over 300 of your children??? Are they going to start calling you names or something?

If it was me, I'd put his head on a pike and feed his body to the pigs, and video tape it and play it 24x7 on the jihadi websites...

#4 "Human rights" activists must be the same everywhere. Let's all sit down and have cake and ice cream and reason with these people. Maybe a group hug afterwards. Can't we all just get along?

#5 They are doing the right thing. If the Chechen get the body back it's burial site will become a focus point for the terrorists and their supporters. The body should be stitched into a pig carcass and buried with his butt pointing toward Mecca in a remote and unmarked grave.

#6 Easy people! When in Rome do as the Romans or something like that. I understand that the bodies of various types of people killed or kidnapped in Chechnya are commonly held until payments are made. Maybe the Russians can hit up Basayev for a couple million bucks for each piece with the proceeds going to a fund to pay for the return of russian dead? Chechnya's a wonderful place isn't it?! There is little respect anywhere in Chechnya - for self or others it appears. Why should Maskhadov be treated differently. Isn't it he who helped make Chechnya what it is today? (Yes, he needed a little help from the Russians and his "field commanders" (read sociopaths) like Basayev but he was the one in charge of the place and set the machinery for it's destruction in motion. He never could accept his failure as civilian leader of his nation).

#7 Zip up a good load of Semtex in his body and ship it back with a radio controlled detonator. That will give his compatriots something to talk about and will end this body business, too. Sorta like unlocking your car to get your keys, courtesy of OnStar or something like that.

#8 Wow...they actually paid a reward.

Contrast that to our own government, which finds any reason it can, no matter how thin, to avoid paying reward money.
