One piece breaks away, then another peice, and pretty soon, all thats left of russia is the land around msocow. Not trying to justify either side, but i doubt these so called purgings are any different from US troops in Iraq rounding up suspected militants, and interrogating them...

im WW2 stalin deported and killed alot of chechens for helping the nazi's .. chechnya has always wanted to be free from russia . the first russian -chechen war russia got its ass handed to it , then they withdrew and it became a kidnapping haven and terrorist training ground , thats why russia went back in there .. its a no win situation
American troops in Iraq act alot more civil than the russian troops do in chechnya, it was nice to see short point out that.
