Abu Omar al-Shishani
Chechen-Georgian Abu Omar al-Shishani, ISIS commander.

Comment: Yesterday we ran a piece by Gordon Hahn (What DC hid for years about the real reason Putin 'invaded' Chechnya), which included the following:
This period (the 1990s - Gordon Hahn) in the country is associated with a sharp increase in crime. In addition, the new Chechen authorities began to pursue a policy of displacement of people from other ethnic groups, which is accompanied by killings, looting, and ethnic cleansing. Journalist Paul Klebnikov called these events a genocide of ethnic Russians, which was carried out in Chechnya before the combat operations that began in 1994. ...

In July 1999, the Ministry of Nationalities of the Russian Federation reported that from 1991 to 1999 more than 21 thousand ethnic Russians were killed (not counting those killed in war) and more than 100 thousand apartments and houses belonging to members of non-Chechen ethnic groups were seized in Chechnya. More than 46 thousand were turned into de facto slaves, with their property and passports confiscated with the connivance of the republican and federal authorities.
This article puts the above words into perspective. Please take its author's warning seriously.


This is one of the sickest, most messed up videos I've ever seen. I watched it once all the way through and I've seen bits of it since, but I don't think I can watch it clear through again. I really advise my regular readers to think twice before watching this video - it is so f***ed up you won't even believe it.

Originally titled Six Russian Conscripts Beheading, I renamed this post No Mercy For Russians! after the name of the Italian translation.

WARNING! This video has very gruesome content! Extreme viewer discretion is advised! If you think you are going to get upset or worse by this video, DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT watch it!

If you are underage, do NOT watch this video! If you are a parent and are concerned about your kids viewing this post, please either supervise and/or restrict your children's Internet use or invest in a blocking program.

Bad reactions have been reported by those watching this video. So far, nausea (lasting up to an entire day), fear, rage, feeling disturbed and upset (in one case for months), inability to stop thinking about the video, flashbacks, facial flushing, shivering, chills, vomiting, nearly fainting, neck pains, crying, and depression (lasting up to a few days) have been reported. One person said they will never be the same after watching this. Another was so traumatized by this video that they nearly had to go see a therapist.

Hospitalizations have occurred due to this video. When it was first shown on Dagestani TV, several people were admitted to the hospital with heart problems after watching the video. All were apparently released later.

If you think you are going to have a bad reaction, please reconsider whether you really want to watch this.

I am posting this video because it is related to the neo-Nazi beheading video that created such a storm on the Internets.

A lot of people, even some who have seen the worst videos on the Net, are not able to watch this video.

A much more important question is why the Russian neo-Nazis chose to execute the first man by (an admittedly botched) beheading. The answer lies in this video. Although most Americans know nothing of these videos, they were widely released in Russia, probably around the time they were shot.

One very famous video, chechclear, was shot in 1996 at the end of the first Chechen War.

The video above was shot on September 5, 1999, when a Chechen rebel group of 200 men raided from Chechnya across the border into Dagestan. A contingent of this group, numbering about 40, found a village, Tuhchar, or Tuhcharom, that was guarded by 13 poorly-trained Russian conscripts. Various sites on the Web claim that this group was led by named Salautdin Temirbulatov (photo), but that does not appear to be the case.

Instead, Temirbulatov is the man who beheaded the unknown Russian conscript in the famous chechclear clip.

This group was actually led by Emir Umar Karpinski, associated with the Basayev and Khattab factions.

Clearly outnumbered, seven of the 13 managed to run away and hid in the village, but another six were captured.

Five of them were beheaded*; a sixth got up and tried to run away but he was shot dead. The sixth one was a 17 year old, and the rebels offered him the charming choice of converting to Islam or being killed. He refused to convert and was then shot.
*In this video, the Chechens are laughing, carrying on and yelling "Allahu Akbar!" the whole time. They slowly slit the soldiers' throats halfway, so the victims remain alive and suffering for some time.

Even with their throats partway cut, some are still moving around, trying to crawl, flopping around on the ground, moving their heads around, wiping their eyes and making weird noises out of what's left of their vocal tracts. The victims' are screaming, "Stop! Let me go!" in Russian.
Here is the audio, translated from the Russian and Chechen dialogue, from the section of the tape dealing with one victim, Aleksey Lipatov, who pled for his life, and was then murdered:


Comment: Even if you don't watch the video (and we don't recommend it), even reading the transcript of what occurred is disturbing. You've been warned.

Russian prisoner, just a kid, is lying on the grass....

Chechen with knife: "Turn around."

Kid moves a bit sideways...

Chechen off-camera: "LIE DOWN!"

Chechen takes the knife out and bends towards the kid...

Lipatov: "You don't have to cut me...I'll tell you everything..."

Chechen with knife: "What are you gonna tell me?"

Chechen off-camera: "Go ahead, talk..."

Lipatov: "I'll tell you where it's located."

Chechen off-camera: "Where is it located?"

Lipatov points towards a hill with houses: "There, in that house."

Chechen with knife: "What?"

Chechen off-camera: "What is in that house?"

Lipatov: "Weapons and ammo."

Chechen with knife: "Where? In that house?" Points.

Lipatov: "Yes from there."

Chechen with knife looks at his comrade.

Chechen off-camera: "Hes lying..."

Chechen off-camera: "Lie on the ground."

Chechen with knife: "What else can you tell us?"

Chechen off-camera: "Where are the weapons?"

Lipatov: "What?"

Chechen off-camera: "The weapons and the ammo."

Lipatov: "On the top of the mountain."

Chechen with knife: "Where?"

Lipatov: "There on top." Points.

Chechen with knife: "Are you sure?"

Lipatov: "Yes, yes."

AK shots fired...Chechen with knife backs off and doesn't want to cut him...feels sorry for the kid:

"What do you want me to do?" in Chechen.

Chechen off-camera: "Just cut him."

Lipatov: "There, it's right there." Points.

Chechens yell: "Leave him alone and come back!"

A bunch of them yell at once. Gunshots fired from AK.

Chechens keep yelling: "Leave him alone...come back already." (They are referring to the other kid that ran.)

Chechen with the knife: "Turn around."

Chechen: "Take off your belt."

Chechens off-camera: "Come on, cut him up."

Lipatov: "You don't have to."

Chechen off-camera: "Just cut 'im up already."

Lipatov: "You don't have to, please..."

Chechen scum hits him with the belt.

Chechen: "All right, come on!"

Chechen with Adidas jacket: "Hands back!"

Lipatov: "Please don't."

Chechen (Adidas): "Hands back!"

Chechen (Adidas) hits Lipatov in the face: "I said hands back!!"

Lipatov gets hit with an AK.

Chechen off-camera: "Quickly, quickly."

Lipatov: "Please, let's talk..."

Chechen with camera: "HANDS BACK! You fuck."

Chechen: "Fuck the belt."

Rifle hits the kid.

Chechen off-camera: "Just fucking cut him already!"

Lipatov: "Please, I don't want to."

They wrestle.

Lipatov screams: "I DON'T WANT TO DIE! PLEASE!"

Chechens: "Cut him."

Lipatov cries.

Lipatov: "I DON'T WANT TO DIE, PLEASE!! You are very good people, please!"

Cameraman: "Yes, we are very, very good people...THE BEST."

Chechen: "Get the knife."

Chechen punches the kid in the head a few times.

Chechen with the knife: "Stop fucking hitting him."

Cameraman: "You're gonna live in Grave City."

Lipatov: "MOMMY! MOMMY!"

Cameraman: "Torture him."

Lipatov: "I WANT TO LIVE!"

Cameraman, sarcastically: "He wants to live!"

Lipatov screams...3 on 1, the Chechens attack him.

Lipatov: "Come on fellows...I just want to live."

Chechen: "CUT HIM NOW."

Lipatov: "Leave me alone!"

A Knife goes through Lipatov's throat. Lipatov kneels while getting butted in the head with an AK.

Chechen with knife to the guy with the AK: "What the fuck are you doing? Fuck off."

Chechen with knife: "I'll do this myself!"

A Chechen cuts Lipatov's neck, stabs him in the neck...over and over and over...Lipatov is dead.
A few months later, the group was decimated in a Russian-Chechen operation. Two Special Forces groups took place in the operation, the recently disbanded Chechen Vostok Brigades from the puppet Chechen government, and Russian Spetznatz special forces. The video released by the Chechens was used as evidence against those who committed the crime in order to track them down. Some say they were killed in Russian aerial bombings.

All of the Chechens seen in this video were killed sooner or later, so everyone you see in this video is dead.

This video is in four or five parts, and this is apparently part four or five. This video goes by various names around the Net, and it is usually found on a Russian forum, but all the commentary is in Russian. It goes by names like Dagestan, Dagestan Massacre, Execution of 6 Russian Conscripts in Dagestan, Rebels Brutally Execute Soldiers in Eastern Europe, Chechnian Beasts, etc.

This particular video, though shot in 1999, seems to have only made it onto the web in a significant way about July 2007, a year ago.

Anyway, these videos were released on the Net and widely viewed by the Russian public. This served to arouse even more rage against the Chechens, especially due to the fact that these guys were conscripts. Chechen apologists argue that Russian conscripts have done all sorts of terrible things to Chechens, both fighters and civilians.

They also say that this was just one commander and doesn't reflect the views of others.


Comment: No, this was not an isolated incident, one bad apple. Look at ISIS today; that's what Russia was dealing with back then. And it's why Russia is supporting Syria in their fight against this groups of psychopaths (which includes many Chechens).
