up untill this point I was sympathetic to the chechens- for several reasons
1- moscow is far from humane or fair or even anything close to decent when dealing with chechnia
2- Moscow runs their country- if you want to disagree, you disapear in the night- if you are lucky your family gets to live to mourn you
3- they have no where near the military forces needed to liberate their country- they tried that and failed badly
4- there are no open avenues for non violent change (see 1)
and they struck me as having balls in the You kill my family, I will kill yours kind of way- and the black widows-thats fanaticism to the nth degree- not something I would fuck with-
At this point though, they have taken the whole eye for an eye thing too far- imho they are trying to bring the horrors of hell to russia, and I do not think that that will help their cause in any fashion- it will rightly bring a whole new level of hate into this thing- few are rational, no matter their nationality , when their children are murdered, especialy like this- at this point there will only be more and more blood, in a war where no one is right and the only question is how much one side can shock, disgust , and torture the other...... as for the particular terrorists in this particular incident, a horrible death would be just, televised if possible, - in this case the chechens have set the bar, and it would be justified, in the twisted logic that pervades such things, for russia to match it..................
