I have to say my knowledge of their conflict with Russia is limited to word of mouth.  I do know Russian conscripts were burned alive and beheaded a lot.  So, what started that mess and will it ever flare up again?  or is it like Israel and the Pals?

They are Muslims and were prosecuted under the Soviet system for it. There is still a lot of resentment over that and a lot of the Muslims want to break off from the Russian Federation.

^ That's a very basic explanation of it.

Southern Russia has always been rebellious. Chechnya-Dagestan has been fighting Russia for centuries. It's an old conflict that was suppressed during the Soviet reign. They wanted their independence when the rest of the USSR broke up and Russia wouldn't let them leave.

They invaded and crushed the region after it rebelled just after the USSR broke up. They crushed the region the Russian way by leveling towns etc.

The official figure for Russian military death toll is 5,500, while most estimates put the number between 3,500 and 7,500, or even as high as 14,000.[6]  Although there are no accurate figures for the number of Chechen militants killed, various estimates put the number at about 3,000 to over 15,000 deaths. Various figures estimate the number of civilian deaths at between 30,000 and 100,000 killed and possibly over 200,000 injured, while more than 500,000 people were displaced by the conflict, which left cities and villages across the republic in ruins.
You'd be pissed too.

Deported them from their native lands during WW2. The Soviets were also trying to force them to speak Russian and give up their native language and Islam.

Also the city in the area wheremost of the them live is one of the most wrecked places in the world. It's been ranked worse than Post-U.S. Baghdad.

and before that iirc Stalin persecuted them saying they were helping the Nazi's and killed or deported many Chechens.

Why does it matter how they die? Chopping off heads is demoralizing for the enemy, especially if they're conscripts. What's the difference between shooting them in the head or lopping it off? Nothing.

Besides, as far as I'm concerned, the Chechens can do whatever the fuck they want to Russian soldiers. Russian soldiers take rape and pillage to a whole other level when they invade somewhere.

Read some Sun Tzu man, fear the most powerful weapon any military possesses. You don't like beheadings, fine, they don't like having bombs dropped on them or artillery called on them. Bombs and artillery aren't weapons designed to kill, they're very ineffective at it, they are designed to terrify the enemy and force his submission. See: Desert Storm.

Beheadings were done for centuries. It's one of the quickest ways to die. It also has the added bonus of severing the spinal column so you feel almost nothing.

Sure, but they're inefficient ways to kill, especially against infantry. Why did every WWI offensive start with an artillery barrage? It wasn't because they expected to wipe out the defenders, it was to attack a demoralized opponent.
