So depending on which side you are on either a pupet leader has been killed or Chechnya's best hope for peace has been killed (the two are not mutaly exclusive) Is there any chance of things sorting themselves out any time soon?

I am pretty sure they have oil and very sure they have an oil pipeline running through the country. Also there have been reports of Russian soldiers selling weapons to the rebels: basically a nice corrupt conflict.
