As I do my superficial, wikipedia level, online research, it's hard to tell what's up right now. I can see that there was "displacement" or Muslims during the first Chechnyan War, but I can't really tell what's up or how things were resolved.

What do you think, Moe.ron, about the independence in each of these cases?
For a starter, Stalin forced Chechen to relocate in 1944. Up to 30% of Chechen died during the transportation, resettlement and the first year of exile.

Then there is the 1999 operation which resulted over 30,000 civilians death and Chechnya in ruins.

From what I can gather, not much going on. Either in redeveloping Chechnya or open conflict. However, Amnesty has reported many male "disappearing" and there are various individuals who have disappear.
