Russia's Muslims are not alike. Basically, there are three groups: the Caucasians (Chechens, Ingush, Dagestanis, South Ossetians), the Tatars and Bashkirs in central Russia, and the immigrants from central Asia. The first lot are radicalised effing lunatics, their Christian neighbours not being much better. The latter two groups are not radical at all.
Pessimism is the soft option.
