In 1995, General Anatoly Kvashnin, who is today the No. 2 man in Russia's military hierarchy, told me: "We will beat the Chechens to pulp so that the present generation will be too terrified to fight Russia again. Let Western observers come to Grozny and see what we have done to our own city so that they shall know what may happen to their towns if they get rough with Russia. But you know, in 20 or 30 years, a new generation of Chechens that hasn't seen the Russian army in action will grow up and they will again rebel, and we'll have to smash them down all over again.
