No, they do NOT say that.

Read it again.

Then try and read what I wrote

"It's also clear that a SIGNIFICANT PART of the physical destruction of Tskhinvali was caused by Russian munitions."

"SIGNIFICANT" - not "all" or even "most" but "significant". Jesus Christ.

You'll see that I and HRW agree - WHY? - because I READ the HRW thing before I wrote what I wrote.

How do you explain the blown up Georgian armor all over Tskhinvali? The Russian weapons may be good but you don't thing they're magic, do you? What do you think a munition big enough to blow up a tank does to the buildings nearby?
