Day of the Black Widow

While athletes from around the globe are preparing to compete in the 2014 Winter Olympics to be held in the Russian city of Sochi, there are others who are preparing for different competitions, and stranger , more deadly celebrations. Russia is a hotbed of terror activity , with rival terror organizations in every province of the politically divided country. While Russian President Vladimir Putin promises to put a "ring of steel" around the Olympic City, there are already tell tale signs emerging that the U.S. and other nations have valid reasons to doubt the Russian Premiere's ability to live up to that promise . There were two bombings in Volgograd, located in Southern Russia , that killed 34 people last month . A video was released by the terror organization known as Vilayet Dagestan , which is based in Russia's Caucasus region.The terrorists on the video promised more bombings during the Olympics . At the same time, another threat emerges in the form of the so-called, "Black Widows";..female terrorists who strike to avenge the deaths of their terrorist husbands.The most viable aspect of this terror threat may come from 22 year old Ruzanna Ibragimora , who is reported to have traveled from Dagestan to Sochi recently. Apparently, Putin's,"Ring of Steel", did little to stop this terrorist's movement. That does not bode well for the future.There are three or four of these Terror  Widows who are vowing to strike at Putin and the Olympics , in protest of so-called Anti -Islamic oppression and violence around the globe. Putin's Ring of Steel around Sochi comes in the form of 40, 000 security agents whose job is to patrol a 1, 500 mile security zone around Sochi to insure the safety of the athletes and tourists .But, despite all of Putin's security preparation, and boasts to "totally annihilate " the terrorists , the question remains ;...can the Russians be trusted to protect American athletes and spectators? There are indications that, unfortunately, they can not. President Obama and Putin have met to discuss the need for mutual security cooperation , with President Obama promising to dispatch two Naval destroyers to the Black Sea region , to be used as emergency backup to Putin's Ring of Steel , and the ships may, in fact, be used to facilitate the evacuation of American citizens, if necessary.
The CIA claims that Russian Security is cooperating with them,but  not as much as they would like. What does that mean, exactly ? Well, it means that Vladimir Putin is simply doing what he does best;..disrespecting the United States and President Obama, in particular. Putin no doubt sees Obama weak, in many regards , especially in foreign policy matters dealing with terrorism . After all, it was Russian Intelligence that alerted the CIA years ago, of the potential threat of the Tsarnaev Family , that had emigrated to the U.S. from  Chechnya , and who had strong terrorist ties and leanings.
The Obama Administration , the CIA, the FBI,  were all alerted to the potential threat this family posed . They were aware of them, they did indeed , check them out, but then, they simply ignored them. The result? The Boston Marathon bombing , a terror attack on U.S soil , the 5th such attack under the Obama regime. The 5th attack , in which there were prior warning signs of impending trouble. The 5th time these warning signs were ignored. Under President Bush, there were no terror attacks on our soil , after 911. Bush's strong anti -terror program, and the Patriot Act, kept the terrorists at bay. The terrorists feared Bush . However, under Obama, the terrorists have become emboldened as they see this American President bow and capitulate to terror sponsoring nations around the globe while continuing to provide U.S. Tax Dollar subsidies to nations that regard us as a Nation of Infidels.
Obama's weak policy regarding the Syrian revolution and his inability to deal forcefully with Syrian President Assad opened the door for Putin to step in and make a so-called , "no chemical weapon" deal that was laughable , considering the fact that Putin was supplying Assad with these , and other weapons.Obama also has allowed Iran to move one step closer to nuclear weapon production by allowing the terror state to keep enriching uranium , to keep all their centrifuges, and to keep receiving American tax dollars , in exchange for a weak promise by Iranian President Rouhani , to keep enrichment of uranium below weapon grade levels. What a deal !Add to this Obama's failure to protect Benghazi and other Embassies during the 911 Anniversary. No wonder Putin now has no desire to fully cooperate with Obama on terror security matters.Like all our enemies , he knows our President is simply weak in dealing with terrorism and terrorists. However, there is one area in which Obama has shown remarkable ability in the war on terror, and that's in the use of Drones to kill terrorists. In this , if nothing else, Obama has indeed reigned supreme. The reason Obama is fond of them is obvious. Drones are less expensive than deploying troops and bring a detached ,emotionless, robotic , direct approach to war that appeals to a President that has always strove to avoid accountability for his actions. Yes, the Drone War has worked , especially in taking out high value terror leaders, but it has also eliminated key sources of terror information , by killing,  instead of capturing these masterminds.But Putin really has no reason to criticize President Obama's terror policies. Putin may use the same , "kill first" policies regarding terror threats, but at the same time,not only is Russia infested with terror organizations, but also, Putin himself, is a terror supporter and sponsor. Indeed, the Russians have always been and always will be , financial sponsors of terror around the globe. In fact, Putin, a former KGB General, has been a force of terror against his own people for many years , and, as Russian President, has supplied weapons to Iran , Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and Libya, when it was under the rule of Gadaffi.
The bottom line is this;..how can Putin look down his nose and show contempt for our President 's weak stance on terrorism, when he, himself, is a sponsor of terror? Well, actually, this is not that surprising, since the terrorists and other terror sponsoring nations, also view Obama as weak. They know that the only thing that can stop their Jihad against America, and all infidels, is force,..pure, naked force. Putin and the former Soviet Union have always been held in check by the balance of power . Nothing else. Both Russia and China are now our allies , but, it's only because they fear our military might and they depend on U.S.tax dollars and trade to keep their economies afloat.
Putin's Ring of Steel may, or may not work, but, if I'm an Olympic athlete , I wouldn't want to bet my life on it. Putin needs the Olympics for obvious  financial reasons , and that may be incentive enough for him to protect American athletes and tourists. But, U.S. Intelligence should expect little or no cooperation . Putin, like all Russian leaders, believes in total power, total control , of his State , and his Nation, and the city of Sochi , which he views now as his cash cow.He will indeed target terrorists and Chechnyan rebels , as he has always done , but only when they interfere with his power base, and his control;..not out of any need to eliminate evil. They are his rivals in power , much like Hitler and Stalin were rivals , both evil , yet they could not really be allies , for their need for total power would always force them, in the end, to destroy each other. Putin will find that he cannot stop  this impending invasion of these Black Widows , because , at heart, he is one of them, and has funded and fueled their mission , by supplying those Nations that, in turn, supply the terror movement.
Vladimir Putin may find, as the Olympics draw near, that his Ring of Steel is actually a spider's web, that he has spun , by supporting those who would now seek to destroy him, and the Olympics, for no other reason, than the fact that the terrorists regard Putin as nothing more than non -believer , "infidel", that must be destroyed , in accordance with the will of the Prophet Muhammad .Putin, ironically, is in the same boat as the U.S., as far as the terrorists are concerned. Not because he is an anti-terror crusader , but simply because he does not follow Islam , and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad , and so, he must be destroyed.
The attack of these spider women may well spell disaster for Putin, Russia, and the Sochi athletes as well. President Obama's Naval ships better be ready , for disaster is indeed , looming large in Sochi this February. Vladimir Putin wanted to bring the Olympics to Russia, and wanted them to take place in his favorite Black Sea resort town,Sochi. Well, he got his wish, but thanks in part to his own financial support of terror sponsors , he may soon regret it. One Black Widow terrorist has already slipped through Ring of Steel,..and fairly easily. How many more will do so, as the Olympics grow nearer?Putin may soon feel the sting of these Black Widows, as they converge on Sochi. Putin, for his part, in the wake of the suicide bombings in the town of Volgograd , has vowed ,"total annihilation" of the terrorists. That is highly unlikely. , since, like President Obama, Putin is an enabler and sponsor of the very organizations he has sworn to eliminate.
There is a web of terrorism in Chechnya , and other areas of Russia , that surrounds Sochi , and the web is about to tighten, on Putin , and his Olympics.
