Interview: Terror in Russia
Posted: March 13, 2011 in Free Rad!calsTags: Central Asia, chechnya, Europe, radicalization, Russia, terrorism
I have pulled this trick before, asking Ces to provide some insights on what is going on with terrorism in Russia. He kindly did this interview with me a while ago, but it got a bit lost and he kindly agreed to update it for Free Rad!cals. The links I had included have not made [...]

This has received very little coverage outside the Baltics, and it is hard to know exactly what is going on. It will be interesting to see [...]

A post I am a little late in putting up, as I have had difficulty accessing the site. It is also one that is actually not really mine, but rather one I asked Ces Moore of Birmingham University to contribute to Free Rad!cals. I understand he is doing an event at Kings sometime towards the [...]
