The least he could have done was nuked Chechnya, or at least a massive artillery bombardment to do to Grozny what the Romans did to Carthage.

And that would have solved.............?

"And that would have solved.............?"

It would have:

1) Given the Muslim Chechans and other Islamic terrorists that their activities will be met with the harshest possible consequences, which they cannot afford to sustain.

2) It would have defended the honor of Russia and made Putin's nation seem very strong.

3) It would be an act of vengeance, to punish the Chechnyans for the horrible treatment of the Russians in Belsan.

4) It would be the world standing up to Islamic terrorism and saying "ENOUGH!!!"

Either Muslims stop committing terrorist acts or Islam will be destroyed.
