YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Ever since two Chechen brothers were implicated in the Boston bombings, people have been going through history books to see what is distinctive about Islam in the Caucasus. To understand Chechens you must first understand where they come from, the Caucasus and its mountains. In the same way that the Atlantic ocean influenced the British and the Frontier formed the Americans, the Caucasus mountains developed the Caucasian peoples.

In this report we talk about the history of the North Caucasus and the role Chechens played in it. Chechen history is a story of violance, genocide and persecution, mixed with determination and faith.
