"Chechens are total savages and always have been."
What over-the-top ethnic prejudice. Yes, the Chechen militants are terrorists, but that is as far as it goes.
As for savages ...
"For many Chechens, the constant bombardment was only the beginning of the horror. Once they came into contact with Russian forces, they faced even greater dangers. Human Rights Watch has now documented three large-scale massacres by Russian forces in Chechnya. In December, Russian troops killed seventeen civilians in the village of Alkhan-Yurt while going on a looting spree, burning many of the remaining homes and raping several women. We have documented at least fifty murders, mostly of older men and women, by Russian soldiers in the Staropromyslovski district of Grozny since Russian forces took control of that district: innocent civilians shot to death in their homes and their yards. In one case, three generations of the Zubayev family were shot to death in the yard of their home. "

The chechens. Why? I mean, it isn't my fault if you want to believe slammite propaganda.
Got to love those Soviet tactics.../sarc
