Did this war have to happen?
Article Abstract:
The international community has recently expressed a commitment to prevent and pre-empt regional conflicts before they flare up into civil wars such as the one currently raging in the rebel Russian republic of Chechnya. However, western nations have taken no positive action against Russia, which has already violated its international commitments by injuring and killing Chechen civilians. Indeed, there has been a distinct lack of international willingness to become involved to ensure that the conflict is contained.

Muslims should not expose their legs. Some families disapprove so strongly that they ostracise the person. Leicester Model Team Asian Division is UK's first Asian model agency, set up by Anupma Jaidka.
