The Russians began deporting Chechens to Siberia and what became the
gulag in the Czarist days, and continued under Stalin with renewed
vigor. The policy was to "Russianify" minorities. A policy started
in the 18th century with Peter the Great. Approx 1.3 million
Chechens were deported in the 20th century, with 10% dying in
transport.
Throughout history there are many examples of people who have been treated
like garbage but haven't felt the need to kill children as revenge.
