From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 9/23/2006 5:49 AM US "Antiterrorists" Involuntarily Praise the Chechens Publication time: Today at 14:09 Djokhar time A new US "antiterrorist" propaganda book, Insurgents, Terrorists and Militias: The Warriors of Contemporary Combat, by certain Richard Shultz and Andrea Dew, both of the International Security Studies Program at Tuft's University Fletcher School, in Boston, describes the Chechens as follows:
"From an early age, a Chechen boy is taught he is a warrior, fighting is part of life, courage is a supreme virtue, honor is precious, cruelty toward enemies is no sin, and cowardice brings shame on family and clan." When he turns 15 the Chechen boy is given his own dagger.
Chechens identify with the wolf, an animal invoked in their national anthem. As one ethnographer, quoted by Shultz and Dew, explains, the Chechens celebrate the wolf as the "only beast that dares to attack a stronger animal, [and if he dies], dies silently without expression of fear or pain."
