#1 that election was a joke. Many of the Chechen fighters are terrorists, but terrorists that the Russians made. The difference between the U.S.'s war in Iraq and Russia's in Chechnya is that the U.S. is trying to give a former dictator-ruled country democracy and freedom, while Russia invaded a sovereign country that had had elections and have been trying to make Chechnya a Russian state ever since.
