Bush/Chechens sabotage Russian gas pipeline

I was waiting to see what kind of terrorist attack would take place to commemorate Putin’s trip to Turkey against the wishes of the United States. This could be it.

Putin has tied the energy knot with Ankara in an effort to expand Russia’s natural gas exports.

The last time Putin was scheduled to go to Turkey Bush and the Chechens slaughtered a large number of Russian school children. Documented in the following links is an ongoing pattern, the Chechens terrorist attacks at the behest of Bush helping U.S. interests.

Turkey is a key piece in Putin's overall strategy to re-establish a sphere of influence. Behind the Kremlin's rhetoric against a unipolar world is not only veiled criticism of U.S. hegemony, but a reminder that Siberian fields hold the largest deposits of natural gas.

The U.S. is not interested in Caspian oil to supply its own internal industry. The U.S. is grabbing for control of the Caspian oil fields because other countries need this oil--and because the U.S. wants to control them. Other imperialist rivals--including Germany and Japan--are "energy poor" and need access to oilfields outside their borders. Most Third World countries are heavily dependent on imported oil.

The United States wants to control all of the oil and obviously gas in order to dominate the world.

Gas explosion in southern Russia believed the result of sabotage

December 9, 2004

MAKHACHKALA, Russia (AP) - Investigators think an explosion that ripped through a gas pipeline in the southern Russian region of Dagestan was caused by sabotage and have opened a criminal case on charges of terrorism, the regional Interior Ministry said Thursday.

Two firefighters were injured as they responded to the blaze that broke out on the region's main gas pipeline at around 10 p.m. Wednesday, about one kilometre west of the capital Makhachkala, said Murtazali Gadzhiyev, Dagestan's regional emergency situations minister.

Nineteen bystanders sustained burns and were hospitalized, said Dagestani Deputy Interior Minister Magomed Omarov.

A second explosion occurred about 25 minutes after the fire broke out, said Sergei Kozhemyak, a spokesman for the Emergency Situations Ministry's southern branch.

Investigators initially attributed the explosion to a technical accident, but Omarov said it was now attributed to terrorism, according to preliminary information.

Chechen rebel leaders have threatened and been blamed for attacks against pipelines, electricity towers and other infrastructure in Russia. Terrorism was suspected in a June oil pipeline rupture in Dagestan, which borders on Chechnya.


Wednesday's explosion left several districts of Dagestan and the neighbouring Caspian Sea nation of Azerbaijan without gas, NTV television reported. The state-controlled Gazprom natural gas company promised to restore supplies by Thursday night.
