Talk:Khadzhi-Murat Yandiyev

The changes were totally misleading, for example these about Geneva Convention - when was ANY fighter treated as a combatant, lawful or not? They are always treated as bandits (Russian Criminal Code, article "banditry") and terrorists, and tried as such (and terrorism is any "attempt on lives" of federal forces members, meaning any combat activity). If they agree to defect, they are amnestied ciminals (crime being a member of opposing side). NO ONE EVER was granted a POW status, no matter what. Because, it's officially not a war or any kind of armed conflict (even not an official martial state). Mind even the al-Qaeda suspects in Gitmo now are treated as a POWs, but then again it's a Western world and different standards (and a whole lot less of hypocrisy).

As for uniforms, your remarks are so completely wrong from so many reasons. Or maybe you think the Kadyrovtsy "violate Geneva" because they still wear mostly American uniforms, as they were before they defected? Or when MVD troops wear the Army uniforms? Chechnya is post-Soviet state, like is Russia - are Russians exclusive to wear post-Soviet uniforms or what? Or maybe Croatians "violated" some kind of convention, when they wore uniforms of former Yugoslavia just like did the Serbs? Or a Polish resistance fighters, because they wore captured German ones? (You'd propably say "looted". Of course, they were also bandits (Polnische Banditen), so I guess they were "looting" alright - and the Nazis were right as to not treating them as a POWs?) Of course, as a guerillas the Chechen rebels wear all kind of uniforms: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Evstafiev-helicopter-shot-down.jpg - you see this (Soviet) one among others already in 1994, this is really normal and I seriously have no idea what's your problem here. But if you see Yandiyev wearing a Russian INSIGNIA (like a Russian flag shoulder patch, or a Soviet battle flag (still in use) or I don't know, a t-shirt with Putin), which would be illegal, get a picture of this and point out. Not that it would really change anything anyway.

Last but not least, all evidence point out to Yandiyev being dead and murdered on the Baranov's clear orders to kill him, as was decided in the European COURT's ruling. (Whether you think it's "no court" or not) --HanzoHattori 00:34, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
