Bob Of course, I have no concrete evidence that this heinous murder of Russian Orthodox Priest has Western link but inflaming religious tensions as a geopolitical strategy has been used by the United States and its European allies in Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan and in Afghanistan. In Somalia, in 2006, the United States and its European leaders and subordinates, have sponsored the invasion of Somalia by primarily Christian mercenary troops belong to the tribe of the current leader of Ethiopia, Meles Zinawi. These troops have committed un reported and under reported war crimes- including extensively documented systematic rape of women and girls but also they have committed the systematic vandalism of Islamic educational institutions and the symbols of Somalia national identity. These acts enraged the entire population and rather subduing the population we got the rise of extremely radical group call Al Shabab. I believe Americans wanted this result because it justified the United States plan of militarization of the Horn of Africa. The same formula has been repeated in Iraq where secular forces of nationalism have been replaced with fragmented groups and sectarian infighting. Again, this is was the desired goal of the United States. In Yemen, the United States is using Saudi Arabia to bring civil war to that country. I believe money from Saudi Arabia- which has often the tacit or direct support of the CIA- is fueling the current crisis of security in the Caucuses. Russia needs to wake up and prevent this threat to its national security before it is too late.
