Who was the analyst? The Beeb says, “Russia has issued new, reduced casualty figures for the Georgian conflict, with 133 civilians now listed as dead in the disputed region of South Ossetia. The figure is far lower than the 1,600 people Russia initially said had died. So if about 400 buildings were destroyed, but only about 100 people died, that means about every four buildings had a guy in it who was flattened.
