            (80%). The main reason why the Dagestanis asked for help from the
            Chechens against the Russian Federation was the great success the

            Chechens achieved  against them in 1996.
               Various interests lie behind Russian's onslaught in Chechnya.
            Nevertheless, no matter what explains the breakout of war, it is always
            women, children and the impoverished that suffer most. They are always
            the ones who have to fight for survival in the face of poverty, starvation
            and epidemics. The major Russian ambition in Chechnya has always been
            to force Chechens to emigrate from their homeland, to assimilate them,
            and open the Chechen lands to inhabitants of other ethnic origins. To this
            end, the wholesale massacre of thousands of innocent, unarmed and
            defenseless people is approved and, moreover, the whole world remains
            indifferent to this monstrous act taking place before their very eyes.


               The Unprotected People of Kashmir

               Kashmir is a troubled region where  violence consistently rages due to
            the ongoing strife  between India and Pakistan. Historically, Kashmir has
            been a region where innocent civilians suffer heavy losses. India
            remained under British rule for a long time. Following Britain's
            withdrawal from India, the Indian Muslims founded a separate Muslim
            state, Pakistan. A population exchange was made between Pakistan and
            India by which many Muslims living within the boundaries of India
            immigrated to Pakistan. However, Jammu and Kashmir, a region with
            dense Muslim population, remained under Indian rule, through the
            efforts of New Delhi, and the support the British provided India. Since
            those days to the present, the tension in Kashmir never eases. Kashmiris
            do not seek independence and merely wish to join Pakistan. However, the
            pressure Indians exert on Kashmiri Muslims goes so far as the use of
            chemical weapons against civilians.

               The Muslims of Kashmir wanted to resist the Indian administration
            and gain independence, as a result of which three great massacres were
            perpetrated in  1947, 1965 and 1971. Tens of thousands of Kashmiri
