the outcome of the election

Russia did not invade Chechnya. Chechnya is a part of Russia. Please tell me how a country can invade itself.

To Ashok: we were not discussing if chechenya has the right to fight for independece or whatever. The point was, is killing people a good idea to stop terrorism. I think it is very clear now that it isn't. I don't want to get in a debate on who started first, but teh chechen-russian conflict is one of the best examples that reacting with violence on violence does not work.

To Occhi: Bombing Dresden political? Dresden and several other cities were bombed with the sole purpose of making as many victims as possible. The thought behind this (call it political if you want, to me it is just mass murder) was that with bombing civilians the support for the Nazi's would go down. It has been one of the biggest mistakes the allied forces have been making, and has allready been admitted by mant people that were involved.
