Konstantin,
In light of the Chechen wars can not trust any of our propaganda, nor in Chechnya. All that is written about Budanov - it is half truth and half of this extremely confusing. That's why there are such differences. Truth can only tell the participants of those wars on both sides.
Budanov honest Russian officer. And his term he was not betraying anybody. Although he following orders from a superior military authorities. This is too much has been written. But it was not passed no one, although from the human point it had to be done. To condemn it must be a brave man, and also not afraid to go to war under the bullets. Your father in law, if it is a field officer, not a military serviceman Arbat district has done the same as the Colonel. In war as in war. Who in Russia in which case you get up? Similar Budanov. By and large it simply had to pardon a couple of years ago. And all of this tale, that the area he lived well. There anyone can not live well. Yet "freedom is better than non-freedom. And so from the zone to reach a settlement must sit in it at least half the time, and only then think about the settlement and more nepylnoy work.
A bit off topic:
I wonder why I need to start discussing here (and condemn) Russian officer? Then let's talk about Israel's bombing of phosphorous and cluster bombs residential neighborhoods in Gaza. Or afraid that anti-Semitism to blame?
