Tschetschenic people have fought against a Russian caption for 120 years. They are neither Russian nor orthodox.
The situation in Tschetschenia now reminds us of the one in 1944, when Stalin wanted to deport the whole people to Central Asia what would have destroyed it.
At the moment, Russia tries to get everyone who's not involved in the fights out of the country. This strategy was a success until now. Thousands of refugees are invading the neighbour countries and by this, destabilising the situation in the whole region of North Caucasus.
Another one of Russia's aims is to kill all Tschetschenic soldiers that hide in the remains of the cities. They want/ will fight with the help of new arms, like special chemical weapons, probably poison gas and Fuel- Air- Explosives that lay a kind of fog over a certain region that produces a fatal Vacuum if it is lighted.
The question is "Why have international powers not interfered yet?"
If Russia suppresses Tschetschenia's resistance it will probably get control of its neighbour country, Georgia too. This would mean that Russia gets hold of the political control over the mineral oil pipeline from Baku to Supsa.
This reason should be enough to make foreign powers, especially the US, interfere. But what can they do? Should they cut financial supports? Should they try to fight Russia like they fought Serbia in the Cosovo - crisis? Should they do something against the social - economic reasons that lead to violence and conflicts by supporting the markets in this region?
Or should they - and they means us - just watch Russia exterminating a whole people?
