They (and their families) live, die and kill without question, at the whim of Russian authority , and Russia is the only entity that has accomplished this, ever with Chechens.==
You paint Chechens a mindless idiots. This is an offense to them.
But they are NOT stupid but they understand the advantages Russia present to them. Huge country which is equally theirs. They live in their traditions and customs in Chechnya because Russia is a federation. And they like to fight. By fighting for Russia they fight for Chechnya same time.
And Russia pays warriors very big money. So lot of warriors from Chechnya and from other regions too went to fight.
BTW Ahmat regiments include fighters from allover Russia not only Chechens. Also Chechens fight not only in Ahmat regiments.
Nope, I just relate the results of the Second Chechen War when Russian Authorities applied the sufficient and comprehensive Force necessary to change the Chechen attitude regarding their importance in Russian Civilization.
Fortunately the Chechens understood the message and reformed their behavior, proving they are NOT mindless idiots.
This is an offense to them.
Nope, not an offense, simply the truth.
But they are NOT stupid...
Of course not, however they are now educated regarding their duties as Civilized Citizens of the Russian Federation, and they know Uncivilized behavior will NOT be tolerated.
...they understand the advantages Russia present(s) to them.
Yes, they do.
Huge country which is equally theirs.
Yes, however Chechens have no special privileges, special Rights, and are not Above The Law.
They live in their traditions and customs in Chechnya because Russia is a federation.
Not exactly.
They can no longer Massacre hundreds of Children as they did at Belsan School, or Murder citizens on the street whom do not kneel for prayer quickly enough, or who happen to be Christian.
NOW Chechens know such activity will result in their quick death, and that of their entire family.
And they like to fight.
OK, however they're smart enough that they've learned whom to fight with, and whom not to.
By fighting for Russia they fight for Chechnya same time.
Just as long as they don't stray.
And Russia pays warriors very big money. So lot of warriors from Chechnya and from other regions too went to fight.
BTW Ahmat regiments include fighters from allover Russia not only Chechens. Also Chechens fight not only in Ahmat regiments.
OK, what Russia pays her soldiers, or in which regiments they fight, is no business or concern of mine.
