I doubt he was performing fellatio on a friend as stated in the article.
"According to this official version, a detonator with a remote control hidden in one of the explosives was detonated by FSB agents..." Although some western media claims it is the official version,there were no official version at all , (Exept that he was killed in a special operation).Patruchef (FSB cheef) told in a Brifing, he (or somebody else) is not authorised to tell how Bassajew was killed.
Taking his statement out of context. That is not NPOV. The meaning is more like 'yeah yeah whatever you say I am' meaning the 'Western' definition of terrorism is whoever fights back against them. (This has nothing to do with whether or not he was actually a terrorist, I am not commenting on that).

"Basayev had served in the OMON forces in the Soviet times. The Basayev brothers participated, among the Soviet troops, the fighting of the TV tower of Vilnius, against the independence movement of Lithuania. As young hotheads, Shamil and his brother Shirvani Basayev had joined the Russian military intelligence GRU in the Abkhaz War against Georgia, although Georgia was the only state around that favored independent Chechnya. To the first Chechen War, Shamil Basayev went as a more mature nationalist Chechen patriot. Then, however, having acquainted with Khattab, and especially having lost the presidential election to Maskhadov, Basayev started to define himself as an "Islamic Che Guevara", and he announced he was opposed to both "Russian imperialist colonialism" and "nationalism" of the Chechen leaders Dudayev and Maskhadov."[1]
Oh, and Shrivani needs an article too.
I wanted to mention this, but I can't find it out now. It was among the lines "let's fight with knives, you are a judo black belt master and I am invalid". Anyone can help? --HanzoHattori (talk)20:52, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
