Impending conflict with rebels raises questions ofmilitan\
MOSCOW (AP) — As the leaves on the trees at
Moscow State University turn golden and flutter to
the ground, students gather in little groups, talking
about classes, favorite rock musicians and the new
war in Chechnya.
Like Russians of all ages, they are worried about
the threat of another major conflict in the breakaway
region in southern Russia. Some said military action
may be necessary; others are uncertain or disagree. All
are mindful of the shadow Chechnya has cast over
their generation
On one thing there is general agreement; Russia
must avoid another major ground war in which
young soldiers are hurled to their deaths in the rebel
region where the Russian army suffered a massive
defeat in 1994-96.
“Wars are good for politicians, not for ordinary peo
ple,” Irina Klimanova, a language student, said. “I am
against starting a new war.
“Imagine how all the young boys’ mothers wor
ry when their sons are ordered to go. After the war
is over, many of them return back home in zinc
coffins or maimed, morally and physically, to the
end of their days.”
Opinion polls and analysts suggest a majority of
Russians back the government's air attacks on Chech
nya that began Sept. 22. Russian officials said the at
tacks are aimed at Islamic rebels, who attacked the
Russian region of Dagestan in August and who have
been linked to four huge apartment bombings in Rus
sia that claimed some 300 lives.
Whereas most Russians had opposed the last
Chechen war, the apartment bombings in Moscow and
two other Russian cities in September brought a strong
change in sentiment, analysts said.
“Before, public opinion saw it as a war that the gov
ernment was waging, and it wasn’t clear on whose be
half,” Sergei Markov of the Institute of Political Stud-
