Fair enough question. Most chechens are against the idea of a separate chechnya. So there is a power struggle in chechnya, between rebel separatists and moscow. At this point you can also question the relevance of introducing radical islam into the equation. The fact remains chechnya is ~250 miles north of iraq & iran; so while the theory of a religious war can be argued pro/con, it certainly is not out of the question.
