It is worth a note to tell you all in this sort of situation media pool their information to get the best possible coverage.
There are very few scoops in war.
There is nothing “Exclusive” about the slaughter of 2,000 civilians.
Another 30,000 are thought to be refugees and many of those are severely injured.

It seems to you that deceive you, speak not everything, something hide, the facts do not converge.
Here where send in addition long hands of the USA, the so-called world policeman. Have destroyed Yugoslavia, have recognized independence of Kosovo, create that want. Though I respect with the USA for art, the literature, great people, but the USA a world harm in military affairs and the politician, undoubtedly. Georgia wishes to have time to enter into NATO before December session, and for this purpose it is necessary to solve territorial questions. Therefore Georgia attacked Tskhinvali. If Russia would not help - all would kill.
Many remember the Chechen Republic. But I to you shall tell - there were bandits who cut off a head, capture NordOst, Beslan, blew up houses in Moscow, Volgodonsk and other cities. They have been connected Ben Ladan, an Al-Qaida. That is the real terrorists.
In South Ossetia there lives the peace population which wants freedom from a terrorist mode of Georgia. Ossetins do not arrange acts of terrorism, do not kill peace the Georgian. Ossetins peaceful people, and the western press names their separatists, what not the truth.
Saakashvili the puppet of the USA, Georgia is sponsored the USA. Preconditions have been created by Georgia as it pulled together armies to South Ossetia, and Russia had only peacemakers. From what Russia to attack Georgia, think, Russia as a member of the UN observed all mandates, and the armies was in territory of South Ossetia - only peacemakers. As Russian armies could appear quickly there in territory of Georgia in a peace time - they send after there was a storm of Tskhinvali by the Georgian forces. The reason - consequence. Russia does not kill peace inhabitants, does not bomb city. Russia only struggles with the Georgian aggression and destroys a military infrastructure that Georgia has combined the weapon to sign the peace treaty. In secutiry council of the UN Russia called to solve the problem peace by, to combine the weapon, to sign the contract about not application of force. So in what a problem - Georgia till now conducts military actions. For now it conducts military actions - Russia conducts actions on compulsion to the peace, as is obliged to do under the Moscow agreement 1994, the approved secutiry council of the United Nations. That is there is a war and it will end when: 1 - Georgia will stop military actions and signs the peace treaty about not application of force; or 2 - Russia will destroy the Georgian armies, here there is a question on the sovereignty of Georgia, Russia will probably take territories Abkhazia and South Ossetia as win war.
War is not necessary to Russia, stability is necessary to it. Why refugees run to Russia, instead of to Georgia. Russia to care of peace inhabitants, gives the humanitarian help. And the Georgian armies on tanks move women and children, burn alive, cut a throat, rip up guts, kill wounded men civil. It is ethnic cleaning. Picture which show western massmedia - installation, show not all. The city Tskhinvali has already been destroyed by Georgia, instead of Russia. It is information war of the West: talking trash, and you trust all that will tell. The stability, the peace is necessary - than and Russia - peace-making mission was engaged. And all this time were provocations from Georgia, which management impudent, artful, henchmen of the USA - shamelessness.
Reasons of the Georgian forces about the crash down Russian planes amaze imagination - 50 the figure, very funny. Whom do they wish to deceive? Saakashvili any sick person: whether drugs, whether preparations accepts.
Recently strongly laughed, when has seen as it the western press asked question him and he suddenly somewhere has run, it was great fun.
In general, that I wish to tell, Russia will not suffer such impudence, disgrace, murder of peace inhabitants and will finish business to logic end.

San, Hunk: Remind me again what Russia has been up to in ‘its’ troubled region which has been seeking independence - Chechnya.
Two wrongs don’t make a right but the hypocrisy at play here is so thick it would block out sunlight.

I agree with San.From Georgian goverment were given orders to kill even women with children

The woman on the picture is not a Georgian woman she is South Ossetin. It is ths georgian army who does such things with civils. Georgian snipers shoot even kids and pregnant women. Russia is preventing South Ossetin people bieng killed by Georgian millitants.

Russia has now been condemned by Western diplomats and a terse meeting of the United Nations Security Council. It has refused to respond to Georgia’s ceasefire, saying fighting would stop only when all forces had been fully withdrawn and agreement had been reached that no further military attacks would take place.
Bear baiting was never a sensible idea.

The Russian bear drunk on power again? The Russians aren’t that smart. They lived a lie under communism for many decades.A time when just owning a Beatles record could get you into serious trouble.
Looks like their leadership may still have a short memory. The tragic figure of the lady in the photo speaks volumes about Russian aggression and its stupidity.
Back in the USSR said the Beatles song or did they really mean BACKWARD in the USSR?

It is extremely difficult to find anything good to say about Russia, in particular it’s leadership.
