#1 Why the f--- are we and our allies giving aid and comfort to Islamist terrorists who do nothing but provoke Russia in its backyard?

How does this benefit us?

What possible interest do we have here?
End this madness.

#3 Arrest the doorman and concierge on unrelated gambling charges. Permit the remaining hotel staff to return to Chechnya, the Ukraine, and Pakistan immediately.

#4 Did a search under Мансур Старый and his very few Youtube vids came up. Indeed strange as he doesn't appear to have been very popular (few followers). There one clip (the only one with a substantial number of viewers) that shows him in a very aggressive stance, hurling expletives at Kadyrov.

He doesn't seem to be important enough to get murdered.
