Re: Putin

Dude, I think I know who Imam Shamil is. I referred to his failed attempt to impose Shariah in an earlier, apparently unread, post. He was a Dagestani Avar. Shamil Basayev is named after him. He lived out his last years in a sumptuous palace outside St. Petersburg on the tsar's money, after having been bribed to quit fighting. He died in what is now Saudi Arabia, after having been given permission to go there by the tsar.
 
Look, I would like to think you mean well, but you don't know what you're talking about. You just don't.

Do you Yahoo!?
