Oh, I understand the threat. And how does Putin confront it? Bombing the shite out of Chechnya, killing good people along with terrorists, for an optics show, accomplishing nothing. Meanwhile he supplies a friend of the Chechnyan terrorists, Iran, arms. Shows he cares nothing for his own people.

What Putin does with Chechnya is his business......Nato has been trying for years to expand and encircle Russia's sphere of influence, and it's neighboring country's. That's what the game-board is and what's been at play for years as Eu/Nato continues it's push for consolidating countries into it's sphere of influence and control.

These events are happening across the ocean....where Europe, China and Russia and Asian nations have to live, trade and bargain as they do among themselves.

We have no business in Ukraine except to checkmate Putin and prevent his relationships with Europe from continuing as they have been......

It's laughable that you would even comment about Chechnya getting bombed by Putin when we've been bombing the daylights in other countries....and our administration continues to fund and support terrorists organizations.

Chechnya is a “contained” terrorist infested entity, they are shooting each other up there....rather like our gang invested areas here in the state. When it gets too far out of hand the leadership in Chechnya calls on Putin to take out their opposition.

There is no doubt Putin does and will continue to align with Muslim nations...they too are in his back yard.....but Europe's relationships with Putin was helpful in keeping that limited and we had his co-operation when we needed it most. ....and we're still getting it despite the situation in Ukraine and the sanctions.
