Putin Denounces Plans for Radical Islamic worldwide Caliphate
2005-10-17
Vladimir Putin declared in Brussels on Monday that radical Islamic groups are planning to systematically annihilate non-Moslems and to create a worldwide Caliphate. He added that western civilisation was at risk of being attacked by terrorists, these attacks being more than sporadic one-off attacks. Rather, they are, in the opinion of Vladimir Putin a “concerted effort and programme” by an organisation which has a global structure and which has the intention to commit murderous atrocities in the name of Islam. Vladimir Putin also declared that there was a possibility that this organisation (Al-Qaeda) already has nuclear weapons. He did not hesitate to point out that the terrorists operating in Chechnya are part of this worldwide league of extremists and indeed are in constant contact with Osama Bin Laden’s Al-Qaeda. Western sources repeatedly refer to the Chechens as “separatists” who want to fight for their independence, whereas the reality is quite different. The Chechen terrorists are a small part of the 850,000 Chechen population, most of whom despise the bandits for what they are: common criminals with connections to international crime, posing in the name of Islam and separatism to gain sympathy for their cause from the ignorant or from those who periodically like to attack Russia. President Putin declared that if the West does not deal effectively with the Chechen question, acts such as those perpetrated in Moscow and Bali will become commonplace all over the world.
Such an islamophobe cowboy, this Putin guy. He's just like Hitler. He prolly wants to drag the West into an intractable quagmire at the behest of the Zionists at PNAC and Halliburton.

Considering that Russia, even now, has had a cultural struggle to westernize, I find it interesting that he identifies with the West[tm], considering how much he rejects even heavily socialized european democratic institutions. I think he's trying the o'Stalin approach of keeping two antagonists at bay [then the democracies and the real Nazis] to kill each other off and then act. Unfortunately for the Russian people then, that strategy collapse in June 1941, when Hitler surprised Stalin. Those Iranian missiles may yet reap upon the Russian people what Puty sows today following that strategy.

#1  Gee, which Putin should we believe? The one that says radical Islam wants to take over the west, or the one that says we shouldn't worry about the fact that he is giving Iran the capability to strike Europe with nuclear missiles?
