I honestly defy you to give me a war in the last 50 years that destroyed more potential hope than this.

>causes Russia's new democracy to fail completely
>Chechnya ends up as a petty fiefdom where Argentina style disappearances were and are common
>insurgency will never, ever end
>resistance goes from being nationalist to being snackbars, so peace is impossible now
>Chechen snackbars travel around the globe spreading jihad to other countries
>Russia's new police state begins exporting their success to countries like Georgia and Ukraine

It brought about the rise of Putin who promptly slapped their shit down

To this day, Chechnya is ruled by Chechen forces that the Russian Federation had to pay to rule the region for them.

Kadyrov recently threatened to kill any Russian forces that entered the country without his permission.

>Russian government now pays off main warlord to not attack them
>builds largest mosque in Europe in Moscow to appease him

>>1414508
Please, kadyrov is one of putin's biggest ass lickers, he plays tough for his people but he knows the moment he gets out of line he gets coup d'etated

The first time they did, because of Yeltsin's and the generals' incompetence.
The second time it was an absolute stomping

I don't know if you know this, but the Second Chechen War killed more Russians than the First.

>>1414549
Not at all.
Not to mention that they completely trounced the Chechens with acceptable casualties, which is all that matters.

The Invasion of Dagestan was very stupid on their part

>>1414516
Imagine if during the civil war the yanks had to pull out, then later invaded a second time only to acknowledge a confederate general as head of the confederated states who in return acknowledged being part of the US in return for massive bribes and being allowed to keep slaves

One of those funny little wars where some Arabs tried to mess with Israel and got thoroughly shat upon.

You forgot to mention that in this scenario the CSA is about the size of Vermont compared to the rest of the US.
