How come there's barely any sort of coverage of the Chechen wars, especially the second one?
The first time I found out about it I couldn't believe all the photos from that period.
What's your take on this, /his/?
>Why wouldn't the Russians release more info about how they killed a shitload of civilians?
The second one was a lot shorter and not a "big" as the Russians just bulldozed everything down while the first Russians found it very difficult to tackle Chechen guerrillas and keep Grozny due to factors of the collapsing soviet union.
IIRC the Second War had alot of muslim expats from the ME fighting as "muh"-jahdeens and some of the leaders were fucking Saudis.
Which would explain why they lost so bad compared to the K/D ratio of the First war.

They still haven't declassified all their WW2 documents yet.

And with good reason, the Russians have forced the Chechens to fight mostly in open fields, rendering their guerrilla-styled warfare obsolete.

Why has there been so many chechen threads lately.
Are these just honeypot threads to meme on slavs?
>>1765353
Because chechens cant be civilians.

Or rather because Russia is not some dumb zerg rush nation and actually learns and adapts from past experiences.

"alot of muslim expats from the ME" is an exaggeration. The war was mostly Chechens vs Chechens. Pro russian Chechens against Chechen separatists.

Yeah, "forced". Russia bombed the shit out of the cities and villages. Killing more than 100 000 civilians.

I like them. Even if most of them have some butthurt Russians in there.
It is utterly surreal seeing and hearing about the devastation caused to Chechenya after the second war; that for years to come there were still resistance fighters living in the ruins of Grozny, and how something like 50% of all buildings were destroyed.
