Bearing in mind this is the Moscow Times relying on a Chechen website:
Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev claimed responsibility for the Beslan hostage-taking and four other recent attacks and defiantly threatened to carry out more.
Basayev said in a statement posted on a rebel web site Friday that the attacks -- which include two plane bombings, a Moscow metro suicide blast and a Moscow bus stop explosion -- were part of a campaign to end the Chechen conflict, start the withdrawal of federal troops from Chechnya and force President Vladimir Putin to resign if he "doesn't want peace."
As previously posted, this page says:
"[The DHS has just granted asylum to someone who's] the foreign minister-in-exile of the secessionist Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, and a former military adjutant to Chechnaya's generalissimo, Shamil Basayev."

The administration has again traitorously endangered national security through abuse of the immigration policies, aligning us in solidarity with chechen terrorist leaders. Russia is in a moment of crisis, from the subhumans' massacre of hundreds of schoolchildren. This act of alliance with the chechen terrorists, on the part of the nihilists in charge of our immigration and foreign policies, pushes us towards war with a country with thousands of ICBM's, and it does so needlessly and capriciously, airily pretending that everyone is American. They are courting mass destruction, and we will see the effects soon.
