Probably almost all atrocities in Chechnya nowadays are committed by Chechens. There is almost no (effective) federal presence.

PS – I know you can’t group all Chechens into one boat, and that Politkovskaya was writing/investigating Ramzan Kadyrov, etc.

So, are we to believe that Chechens murdered Politkovskaya, because every good Russian knows they are all criminals? Or were they pissed about her reporting about Russian atrocities against umm .. Chechens?

Or maybe someone felt that hiring Chechens to murder Politkovskaya would be terribly ironic.

Dude, shadow conspiracies can’t move in OBVIOUS ways .. they have to move in mysterious and sneaky ways.

Haven’t you ever watched “JFK”?

“Back in April, Life.ru published a photo of Rustam Makhmudov, which Novaya believes was done intentionally to warn him that the police were on the hunt.”

Wow, that’s so much easier a way of alerting him than calling him on his phone who would have been.
