#1 A dork and a liar. Much as I dislike RF, they did give Chechnia a de facto independence in 1996---and got endless terrorist attacks for it.

#2 gromgoru,

Sounds like Israels experience in Gaza.

#3 Sounds like every experience of making peace with Islam since its founding.

#4 Trying to make peace with Islamofacists is just taken as a sign of weakness on the part of the West--an opportunity to spread more evil.

#5 Basayev's Islam mobilized a discrete population for limited, localized ends.

Then why did they (after acheiving defacto independence) proceed to launch attacks in Dagestan, seeking a trans-causcus islamic emirate?

It was the attempt to take Dagestan, and raids into Russia itself, that prompted the clumsy Russian invasion.

#6 Except for the Arabs and Turks and Ingush and Dagestanis and the occasional Azeri, Ossetian, Circassians, Avars, Huns, Veps, Vandals, Visigoths, Ostrogoths, Turanians, and Cro-Magnons.

I recognize most of them, but who the heck are the Avars, the Veps and the Turanians (surely not from Turin, Italy?)?
