Seagull.

This is coolbert:

Here is the ethnic type of hatred  I have just blogged about. Simmering dispute and animosity between Russian "Christians" and "Muslim" outsiders erupts into violence.

The type of thing that was while perhaps not common in the Red Army prior to the breakup of the Soviet Union, was not that rare either.

Animosity and discord under the surface, waiting to explode at the slightest "incident".

This one outside a bar [the Seagull], that resulted in two Russians dead. At the hands of Chechens.

Then the Russians retaliate in a big way.

Hate between the Russian and Chechen is very extreme.

MUCH worse than say hate between the black and white in America.

[the MIG pilot Victor Balenko devoted an entire chapter of his book "MIG Pilot" to his experiences in Grozny, and the hate that existed even way back when between the Russian and Chechen!!]

Called incorrectly "racism". More CORRECTLY called ethnic hate.
