Then you're too cryptic for me

What I meant was that it just seems, to me anyway, we could be backing someone who has declared a “holy war/Jihad” against what we feel is a common enemy in a war in a foreign country……haven’t we done this sort of thing before ? And how did that turn out ?

Of course the fact that we in the west are also backing a side that seem ok with murdering school kids, really doesn’t sit right with me.

Agree, we have to take care that if Chechyan rebels are armed by the West, the weapons don't find their way to Al Quaeda, Taliban or similar

Don't understand your comment about murdering school kids.

They, the Chechyn Jihadists, are the same that carried our the Beslan School masacre in September 2004 in which over 300 innocent people, were killed, many of them school children.

Plenty of Remainer hyperbole in that statement, given that all EU states are in financial meltdown as a result of the pandemic

None of them chose to exacerbate that for no reason though. You can be the most pro-Brexit, freedom-loving patriot in the world but surely we can all admit it’s an economic clusterfuck.
