      Madrassas are blossoming in Dagestan.
      The religious schools are part of a Muslim religion revival...that is also sending more young men into the mountains to fight for an Islamic resistance vs the Russian state...and President Putin.
     Resistance and violence are also spreading beyond the Caucasus.
     And locals blame severe police brutality for spurring the growth.
