 BBC News | EUROPE | Obituary: Chechen rebel Khattab
The death of the Chechen rebel commander known as Khattab may be the rebel side's heaviest loss since their leader Dzhokhar Dudayev died in a missile attack in 1996.
But for Khattab himself, the fight in Chechnya was always a struggle against enemies of his vision of Islam - a vision which took him around Afghanistan and the former Soviet Union in pursuit of battle.
Khattab, whose real name is said to be Omar Ibn al Khattab, is believed to have been born in Jordan to a tribe living near the border with Saudi Arabia.

 Amir Khattab - Islamic Forum
Khattab and Basayev share a common dream of creating an Islamic state to "free all Moslems in the Caucasus"-- a goal which far transcends the local conflict in Chechnya and Dagestan.
Khattab is the most important Mujahedeen commander killed since Russian troops launched their latest campaign against the Chechen freedom struggle two and a half years ago.
Khattab is regarded as one of the main proponents of the Wahhabi movement, which in Central-Asia has championed one of the most extreme interpretations of Islamic Jihad, an interpretation developed in Afghanistan by the late Palestinian militant Dr. Abdallah Azzam.

"According to information from the headquarters of the Chechen mujahideen, Amir Khattab was poisoned on March 19 by a letter that was brought to him by a messenger," said the Kavkaz Centre site, www.kavkaz.org.
"Khattab knew the messenger who brought the letter", and the assailant is now believed to be with the Russians, it added.

Amir Khattab (the nom de guerre of Saudi citizen Samer ben Saleh ben Abdallah al Sweleim) was a member of the roaming brotherhood of jihadi paladins that continued to wage holy war on behalf of front line Muslim groups long after the 'divine' victory over the Soviets in the Afghan jihad of 1979-1988.
While Khattab's fighters were few, they brought the outgunned Chechen resistance access to the immense financial resources of his powerful supporters, the quasi-official charities of Saudi Arabia.
Most ominously, Khattab further signaled his real intentions by opening training camps in southeastern Chechnya, which trained unemployed young Chechen men and Muslims from throughout Russia for a never-ending jihad that was far greater in scope than the republic originally envisioned by Chechnya's nationalist leadership.

 IMC Hamilton Home: Re: Implications of Saudi Funding to Western Academic Institutions
Khattab’s numerous Gulf and Middle Eastern financial connections proved invaluable in the proliferation of the radical Chechen movement.
Khattab had originally met bin Laden in 1987 as mujahideen partners during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and from 1989 to 1994, was believed to have returned to the country to secure further contacts with elements of the radical Chechen resistance.
Khattab became so successful in funding, training, and arming the necessary radicals into the Caucasus region to fight Moscow that even Ayman al-Zawahiri, bin Laden’s top lieutenant, began eyeing Chechnya as a possible base during the 1990s as well.

Ironically, when Amir Khattab's Islamic Battalion soon thereafter acted against Maskhadov's wishes in August and September of 1999 and invaded the neighboring Russian republic of Dagestan, the Kremlin cynically accused Maskhadov of being behind the invasion.
Khattab's fighters had some success in grafting their notions of total jihad to the national liberation struggle of the Chechens.
CONCLUSIONS: With the mysterious poisoning death of Emir Khattab in the Spring of 2002, whose exploits were romanticized by Arab supporters throughout the Middle East, analysts nevertheless speculate that the flow of money to the Wahhabi jamaats operating in the mountains of Chechnya may have been temporarily disrupted.

In the aftermath of the Soviet defeat, Khattab and other members of the Afghan alumni swore an oath to the patron saint of the international jihad movement, Abduallah Azzam, to continue the defense of other threatened Muslim groups across the globe.
But far from leaving Chechnya, Khattab signaled his intention to stay on in the war torn Chechen republic by marrying a Muslim woman from the neighboring Russian republic of Dagestan and gradually joining the anti-Maskhadov resistance in Chechnya.
Most ominously, Khattab further signaled his real intentions by opening a series of training camps in southeastern Chechnya which trained unemployed young Chechen men and Muslims from throughout the CIS for a never-ending jihad that was far greater in scope than the micro-republic envisioned by Chechnya's nationalist leadership.

Khattab has been high on Moscow's wanted list in Chechnya since the start of the current Chechen war in 1999.
However, Mairbek Vachagayev, spokesmen for the Chechen rebel leader, Aslan Maskhadov, said Khattab was still alive and dismissed the Russian announcement as a propaganda trick.
The source reported that the meeting was held on April 12-13 in one of the Southern regions of the country on a secret base of the Chechen Armed Forces.

This state of affairs calls for a close study of the future of the Arab fighters in Chechnya and the extent to which the Russian policy of assassinating the leaders of the Chechen leaders will succeed in putting an end to the ongoing conflict and bringing peace to the region.
Accused by the Russian government of being the mastermind of numerous terrorist attacks in Chechnya and Moscow, Al-Walid is the poster child for Russian allegations that legions of al-Qaeda are fighting in Chechnya.
With second Chechen war in its second year, the assassination policy became official Russian policy, and was launched as a means to counter the leadership of the independence movement in Chechnya or those who came from Arab countries to support the movement bringing with them their religious ideologies.
