One Remark

  1. I’m glad someone is echoing of this terrible recent news coming from there. Sadly I suspect there may be other political games being played in such sensitive Muslim majority Russian region. This is a place known to be home of Muslim extremists who also want their independence from (Christian, Orthodox) Russia, the Chechen Republic being 95% Muslims, and it would not be surprising that, beyond the horrible truth of how people perceived as gays may be, Putin may be using them as a way to make the Western World less prone to be shocked if intervention is needed. Russia is having some Muslim terrorist attacks since a while and Chechnya is a quite volatile zone, even with their puppet-government. Thus I hope the best for all the LGBTs of ALL of Russia (including Chechnya) and I hope they are not used as scapegoats to sweeten how the West see a hard military action in a Muslim Russian region (as for gays nothing will change whatsoever, in any case would prove to be easy victims to use when needed for political reasons, a minority that the West “strangely seems to be fond of”).
