I know, whatever they would do I would blame them anyway<g>...I think they should have done in Kosovo what they are now doing in Chechnya...just a few words of concern and let them just waste each other... not our problem. Getting involved will surely complicate the situation even further for decades.

>In other words, we are talking about total obliteration here.

I know. Too many places around the world this has, is and will be happening...It's in our genes I guess:(

Hey joan,

What the heck were you doing in Chechnya? You were holding
out on us. We didn't know we had someone here with a
local understanding of the situation.

What I don't understand is why those Chechnyans wanted to
break away from Russia. Now they have their freedom, but
they don't have any electricity, houses, clean water...etc.
Sometimes you have got to wonder what people are thinking.
