Talking about both people accused on the base of solid evidence of providing information in the making of atomic weapons from the United States to the soviet union. They were americans who are doing what they thought was right. It started in early 1950, when one of the most important soviet spies, a physicist, was arrested and fbi officials learned that he had passed information to moscow by courier, a courier named harry gold. Under interrogation gold identified David Greenglass as his contact. Greenglass identified Julius Rosenberg as the leader of a key spy ring. In june of 1950, julius and his wife ethel were arrested. Both of them charged with conspiracy to commit espionage under the espionage act of 1917. In march of 1951 they were convicted. In june of 1953 they were executed. Since that time, there has been new information produced, and we will talk about some of the new information this evening.

Another longer, monograph coming on the north caucuses with the u. S. Army war colleges looking in depth at the military and security aspects and the history of the cob conflicts in north caucuses. But as he mentioned, this is now a conflict not just in the russian context, not just in the regional context of the north caucuses, not just in the russian statewide context but it has global connections. Just recently, a salafi cleric issued a fatwa, a religious ruling, justifying in the in vol ct the attacks fwmbings enbrad and exchanging that attacks on the russian civilian population is justified because the population is not standing up against the russian government when its persecuting muslims. Therefore, he says, any russian citizen, and he doesnt even he mentioned christians, orthodox, but doesnt distinguish the probably 20 million russian citizens who happen to be muslim, that these civilians, women, children, and be ly, are all allowed to murdered in terrorist attacks.
