Colonel Aleksandr Silin (first and last names changed) commanded a chemical services unit in Chechnya, which was equipped with with the reaktivnye pekhotnye ognemety 'rocket infantry flamethrower' (RPO), which carried the code name 'Bumblebee': The RPO 'Bumblebee' uses 3 types of projectiles: incendiary or napalm; smoke, which can lay down a smokescreen over an area of more than 3 km; and thermobaric, that creates such high temperature and pressure that an explosion of great power is produced. Shooting 3 thermobaric projectiles from a 'Bumblebee' at a 5-story building can completely destroy it.

And it never occurs to the authors of these articles the Bumblebee could have been there for the purpose of laying down a smokescreen to cover the military if an assualt was needed and to cover the students escape. The Russians have more trouble with their liberal press than Americans do.

The root cause of both is the same group: Soros (and his friend's of Gore, oligarches).
