jbe, Your casualties on Chechnya seem light- did not 350,000 either die or get wounded? Chechnya and Russia; East Timor and Indonesia; Northen Arabic and Southern African Sudan; Kurdestan and Turkey, Iraq, and Iran; the Tatars in Russia; Tibetans in China; Madurese in Borneo; Nigeria- these are all countries with restive regions or ethnic groups that might desire "autonomy" from the current government that is forced upon them. When does/should NATO, or the UN, or the US or anyone go in and say "Hey, you;ve got to give up control of that portion of your country". What if Mexico goes to DC today and says to President Clinton- "Hey give us back Texas-it's ours"- should the UN back Mexico's demand? This area of "autonomy" for regions containing "minorities" however you define that term is a very slippery slope....
