In 1999, it's well documented that Putin ordered the bombings of four apartment buildings in Russia killing 300 of his own people in order to create a pretext to invade Chechnya and solidify his hold on power.

No, it’s well speculated by neocons. Not documented.

I mentioned the Dubrovka Theater debacle earlier, but the cold-blooded apartment bombings you mention are even better examples of Putin’s willingness to kill Russians for his political ends.
