Arab "mercenaries" among the Russian school jihadists
By Robert
Jihad watch

Putin and Aslakhanov are wrong. They weren't mercenaries. A mercenary fights for money. These men were fighting for jihad. For Allah.

From CBS:

Twenty militants were killed in gunfights with security forces, 10 of them Arabs, Valery Andreyev, the region's Federal Security Service chief, said in televised comments. President Vladmir Putin's adviser on Chechnya, Aslanbek Aslakhanov, also said a number of the dead militants were Arab mercenaries.

The pictures coming out of this episode are heartrending. This is a struggle for God? The mujahedin defame the name of God by claiming that.
