No, Chechnya is not like Philippines but like Navajo or rather like Apaches inspired by the Saudies.
Apaches were not a nation in any modern sense of this word. Chechens were. US army is not treating Apaches the same way as Russian army is treating Chechens. If Americans treated Apaches in this way, I sincerely couldn't feel any objection against their blowing up government buildings in America.
