Breaking news Chechnya
Chechen terrorists (and I use that term deliberately) have launched an attack on the city of Nalchik in Kabardino-Balkaria. It seems to have been a mass attack launched against the police and security offices in the city but a school and the city's airport have been caught up in the fighting.
This of course brings to mind the vicious assault on the school in Beslan just over a year ago. This is rapidly becoming one of those parts of the world where folks just kill each other merely for being alive.

Yup, that's the guys. Seriously into major destruction and death. but then, the Russians inflict the same on them so I guess there is some balance.
What a useless waste of life. And, I may be slow, but I still don't understand exactly what their objective is, other than drawing attention to a cause that is unclear to begin with.
hmmm Prehaps I should do a post on the history of the Chechnya situation. It won't be very pleasent reading I'm afraid.
I appreciate your comments on Eddie's blog re: the cigarette tax. Excellent point. Thanks.
Chechnya is on my list of places not to visit because they suck.
Please do post a piece on Chechnya's history. You know me. I'll love to read it.
Sigh, something that will take alot of research to do well. Why do I do these things to myself?
