Hopefully this incident will change that. I've seen photos of Grozny, and I used to shake my head at the devastation and wonder why a better solution couldn't have been reached. That reason is on display here today.

Damn the EU, damn the human rights protestors, and damn anyone else that gets in the way. The time for epaceful negotiation has passed. It's time to "Grozny" every city, town, and village in Chechnya. I don't care if they use artillery, air power, or nukes, but it's time to introduce THEM to the term "blowback".

BTW, has there been any official statements from the Russian government about a response to this massacre yet?

You know, like the Palis, the Russians once gave the chechens about 95% of what they had asked for. Some independence in significant issues. But, like the Palis, it was not enough.

Have you seen the Putin quote on my FR site? It's a good one.

I have not checked Russian news since getting up this morning. I will try again soon. Last night and into the wee hours the one I use was crashed.
