Chechens are total savages and always have been. We cannot be in the position of trying to tell Russia that our terrorists are terrorists and hers are "freedom fighters". Chechens are universally hated, even by other slammites in the region.

Well what right does Russia have to tell Israel that the terrorist attacking it are "freedom fighters"? And that it has gone to far in killing them. Israel hasn't even begun to do to Lebanon what Russia did to Chechnya or its people.

"Chechens are total savages and always have been."
What over-the-top ethnic prejudice. Yes, the Chechen militants are terrorists, but that is as far as it goes.

As for savages ...

"For many Chechens, the constant bombardment was only the beginning of the horror. Once they came into contact with Russian forces, they faced even greater dangers. Human Rights Watch has now documented three large-scale massacres by Russian forces in Chechnya. In December, Russian troops killed seventeen civilians in the village of Alkhan-Yurt while going on a looting spree, burning many of the remaining homes and raping several women. We have documented at least fifty murders, mostly of older men and women, by Russian soldiers in the Staropromyslovski district of Grozny since Russian forces took control of that district: innocent civilians shot to death in their homes and their yards. In one case, three generations of the Zubayev family were shot to death in the yard of their home. "

Tell me again, who are the 'savages' here?
