What a BS! Aushev’s resposible for carpet bombing?
Aushev despite he was a hero and a legend among Soviet troops in Afghanistan could never be resposible for carpet bombing, since he was merely a comander of an infantry regiment and as such could not be in charge of any bombing.
You need to know Soviet Army to understand that infantry and air force were separate entities and air force would not be commanded by an infantry oficer, especially of such a low rank as a regiment comander.
Aushev was known to receive his Golden Star of Soviet Hero, which was the highest honour in Soviet Union for having lowest losses among his troops in the whole war.
He is a highly talented military officer, who could achieve very high positions in Army who however left the service simply to be with his own people. He was realy the one who stopped his Ingush people from slipping into bloodshed. He is highly respected men in Ingushetia and in the entire Caucasus region. That is I believe a reason why he was forced out by Putin – Putin as a mediocre hates everybody strong and talented.
I would listed to what Aushev says
