>>>Thirty-three Russian soldiers were killed earlier this week in southern Chechnya, in one of the biggest reversals sustained by federal troops in the five-month war, Russian officers told AFP on Thursday on condition of anonymity.

The soldiers died on Tuesday near Shatoi, some 50 kilometres (30 miles) south of the capital Grozny, where Russian troops are battling with the last resisting units of Chechen forces, officers said.>>>

Ahh, but the war was over, wasn't it? Russians may try to kill every Chechen men or boy they can get their hands on, but they will see more and more freedom fighters joining the battle.

It took ten years for Russia to understand it was futile fighting in Afganistan. Russia will also learn that it is futile fighting an unwinnable for in Chechnya. Chechens are willing and able to teach Russians this lessons, as long as Russia needs it.

Hi L'menexe,

Lost my temper that's all. Even I can do that...:o)

...HOWEVER A HU-U-GE MAJORITY OF'EM DO NOT, i REPEAT, DO NOT LIKE RUSSIANS, >>>

Very smart. Who told you that Dingo never talks truth! That is absolutely true. Huuuuuge Majority of the civilised world do not like Russians.

I don't know why. Could it be that Russia enslaved and terrorised whole lot of nations, and still is the biggest criminal and terrorist state in the world.

>>>The Russian army is facing fresh accusations that its soldiers have committed serious war crimes in Chechnya.

Video footage shot by a German journalist shows bodies of men believed to be Chechen fighters in a mass grave.

Many of them had been mutilated. Some were wrapped in barbed wire. Soldiers are seen throwing one body into the grave from a tank and dragging another behind a truck. >>>

Who are the real terrorist? The West believes, since the collapse of the communism, Islam is the next enemy. Thus despite all the rhetoric they just keep a close eye to this barbarity. And they diminish themselves in the process. Chechens will win this war with or without the help of the West.

Turk,

Do you expect the West to go to war with Russia or something? What about Bosnia?
Oh why bother

Kim Luv:

How are you darlink. I must say that I find myself most dissapointed and surprised at the direction last nights action was going. Would rather see constructive dialog in support of one's position without the personal attacks which you were subjected to. Maybe everyone was a bit tired and erritated. Regardless, I am a firm believer that a certain level of diplomacy should always be maintained when exchanging political ideals, i.e., no personal attacks. For if not, it's like pissing into the wind. Nothing will be accomplished. I'm strickly a results oriented person....

At any rate, you must be exhausted...I'm going to arrange for a soothing massage at the spa for you. Later we'll have a bite to eat and a shopping spree. All on me....

Luv ya Kim! Hairy Mary

I do have to appologize to you(and to YOU, K-san)
for all the uglyness of yesterday. You know me pretty well by now, I mean You've "seen" me here form Dec.99, non-stop (I don't give myself any Vacations more than 2-3days)
So what made me say what I said? When some Ignorant Kim, thinking that she knows Russians, because she's dated one(ha!) and thinking she knows all the Baltic people because she worked there, all that makes scream to me: "what a bunch of crap!!!!" when I accused Latvian Government of sentensing the Russian War Veteran for 6(!) years of prison! Before asking Q's and waiting for A's, she starts assuming and accusing left and right..
L-chan, I do believe that I am not a racist and, when yesterday I said: "Somebody gimme a Latvian!", an ignorant lady who many months ago accused me of not having sense of humor, didn't smell the trap, and jumped right in my throat for that, screamin'n'spitting, calling me a racist..
I will never be patient with someone who's dumb enough to get on my case without analysing my posts..So, there..
GOMEN to you and DOMO for trying to calming me down!
