Putin Orders "Special Services" to Iraq to Find & Destroy Hostage Killers

Last Updated: Wednesday, 28 June 2006

Russia 'to kill Iraq kidnappers'

Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered special services to "find and destroy" the killers of four Russian diplomats taken hostage in Iraq.
The head of Russia's security services immediately pledged to see Putin's order carried out.

The Russian government confirmed the four men's deaths this week, after an insurgent group released a video showing two of them being killed.

The group had demanded Russia leave Chechnya and release Muslim prisoners.

"The President gave the order to Russian special services to take all measures for finding and eliminating the criminals who carried out the murder of Russian diplomats in Iraq", the Interfax news agency quoted the Kremlin's press service as saying.

3. So what will Chimpy's response be?
Aren't they invading a foreign country? One we already invaded and are running things? Is it going to be an old west shoot-em out/ Are US forces going to engage the Russians? What border are they going to cross? Are they going to do it clandestinely?

Is the Russian army going to invade? I'm full of questions.

Interesting, very interesting.
