Actually, I believe many Germans (during WW2) would stronly disagree with that statement.
The Russians have a hard time fighting against small groups of guerrilla fighters, just like any big army has a hard time fighting them. You need a whole hearts-and-minds campaign to erode support for these fighters, and Russia isn't doing that at all. The only option now is the total destruction of the Chechen people and anyone that supports them, and that's not going to happen (I hope).
