Are Russia Attempting To Provoke USA?

Question

Are the Russians attempting to provoke the USA by seemingly breaking the ceasefire agreement or are the media being pro-western and really there not breaking the agreement at all. What i can't understand is why would Russia want to provoke the USA when clearly nothing good would come from it for themselves or anyone else?

Answer 1

No, they are not.

Answer 2

Russia is pushing the USA around because they know that the USA can not do anything because the American armed forces are spread very,very thin in their present state  

Answer 3

The Russians want to embarass the US.  They know full well that nothing will be done to them with the current military burden of Iraq and Afghanistan.  Throw in Russian nukes and they can do as they please.  Plus, they went in to get rid of the current Georgian President and have a Putin puppet take his place.  Once that happens, they'll have a lower profile.

Answer 4

You have wrong information. Russia has not broken cease-fire. Just the opposite. Irina Gagloyeva, Head of the South Ossetia Committee for Information, said last night (August 24) that Georgians had fired upon neighbouring villages forcing the local population to leave their houses.

What is more, there is an information that Georgia side has been gathering its troops and heavy military hardware near the border with South Ossetia.

Preparing new invasion?

It seems that USA by Georgia's hands is trying to involve Russia in full-scale war.
