Russia doesn't strike me as a country Al Queda would threaten; they profited from Iraq's oil contracts and were less than supportive in the war on terror.
If a fire was deliberately set, its a little late to impact their election.

That picture seems to show the fire in the Kremlin. I hope the Cathedrals and other antiquities were not touched, and of course no loss of life.
To: CedarDave
It's the old stable building of the czar's, fully engulfed now.

Gotta love how Fox is already hinting it is terrorism.

Bizarre. I just came from that area and didn't see a thing!

That's exactly what's burning. Reporter stated that only two fire engines responded initially, with only one putting water on the fire.

I'm hearing about it and first thing I thought of is their election and the timing of a huge fire outbreak
Ah, Simon Marks happens to be in Moscow and just mentioned same "coincidence" of timing.
Of course, it could in fact be coincidence...
To: koba37
Fox's guy on the ground made it sound like the fire started on the roof, and did not get a quick enough response before it was allowed to spread...

Historic building, now used as an exhibition hall. Fox reporter says initial response by firefighters was inadequate and now it is out of control. Started about one-half hour ago.

Something that old would probably go up very quickly, even if it was started by a small electrical short.
