« Where Will Russian Run Escape The Cold | Main | OPEC Conflict » ISIS Cell in Georgia
By Micah Halpern
Wednesday December 2, 2015 I've Been Thinking: Georgia is a former Soviet republic. Yesterday the Georgians arrested the members of an ISIS cell. The cell was situated in the area around the Black Sea. There is a significant Muslim population in that area, but traditionally, it is a Christian area and there have been no tensions. In the past most terror cells and arrests in Georgia have taken place in the northeast of the country. The northeast is home to the many ethnic Chechens living in Georgia. Georgia security officials are not commenting on the arrests. Nor are they discussing the dramatic difference between this group and its location versus the ethnic Chechens. It should be obvious. The Chechens are fighting for independence. They happen to be Muslims and they are attacking Christians, Georgians and, of course, Russians. They want a Chechen state which will be a Muslim state. On the other hand -- and this must be worrying the Georgian authorities --- ISIS is fighting to create a caliphate. And then they want to take over the world. There is the difference.
