Why not let Chechnya become independent? Isn't the obvious solution? jks

--------- This is what a lot of people in teh West don't get... Chechnya IS independent, de facto (or was). In 1996, Russia pulled out its troops, cops, almost all the governmental apparatus, everything.

The current war is not about secession. The secessionists already won. This war was started when Chechen militants attacked the Russian republic of Dagestan.
