No doubt that this is Moscow's attempt to provide political cover for their Dictator-in-Charge, Islam Karimov.
Karimov is a criminal, himself the subject of numerous reports by human rights groups for gross violations.
For decades Islam has been conveniently accused of fomenting dissidence in Russia's satelite countries. But the truth of the matter is that, Karimov has been routinely torturing and murdering all opposition to his bloody rule by citing "the war on terror" as justification.
In addition to being a butcher, Karimov is also a plagerizer, getting his que from the 'war on terror' card as played by Russia and Washington in their routine slaughter of Muslims around the globe.
It has become commonplace for the world powers to assign blame for their failures on al-Qaeda, Taliban or others who refuse to kiss their feet.
