(1-10)
Fathers and sons |
Usually it is the fathers who are the source of wars, and the children who die in them. It is terrible and unusual when the fathers disown the sons who tread in their footsteps. |

Another year of Ramzan Kadyrov |
Musa had some wood boards he was going to use to repair the floor, and when the the armed men started piling the boards into a heap to make a bonfire, he understood what was about to happen. |

Bloody nonsense |
Enough of this maintaining and spreading of “scare stories” about ourselves, about how we Chechens are savage and evil, how we have teips and blood feuds, how with one hand we tap the computer keyboard while with the other we sharpen our dagger. |

A schizoidization of society took place, whereby many of its members thought one thing, but were forced to live according to its opposite. |

That’s all, folks! (weekly review) |
The Gudermes animation studio “will tell the story of the people who have brought glory to the Chechen nation in their deeds.” And who among us has brought glory to the nation? That's right! |

A nation of camp followers |

|
“Every conflict always has a father” |
The code of honour which implied that a man must defend his dignity, protect his loved ones, relatives and friends, is now no longer valid. People have grown accustomed to doing without the code. |
