Question

Do the citizens of Russia, understand that the American people are not asking for this war aginst them ?

Answer 1

Why should Russia worry and as a matter of fact It does not matter. What were the citizens of US doing when the first atomic bomb was dropped by them on Japan?

Why do they think they are the gods of this world?

Answer 2

The people of Russia are very, very far from calling the shots in their country.  

Answer 3

It's kind of hard to believe, given the information war the western media, led by US has launched.

I understand Russian fluently, so I've been watching Russian channels a lot, as well as the major European channels like CNN, BBC, NBC, Fox news, etc.

The stories couldn't be more different and though I'm not a fan of Russia, I'm more inclined to believe their side of story.

And then, there is the FACT that Georgian soldiers were trained by US, that some were even on vehicles provided by US or NATO.

After that, you can't really blame Russians for believing the West, led by America, is quite against them.

I just hope Britain does't act like an idiot and stays out of this whatever happens.

Answer 4

I'm sure that the people of Russia are just like any other people - they want peace. And I'm sure that these same people are not happy when their government, under Putin's indirect control start bringing back Soviet style invasions and aggression.

It must be hard for Russians to find empty shelves at stores, and to know that there is no money for toilet paper or bread, yet this same government has ample money for war and killing machines.

Answer 5

I believe the citizens of Russia know all about the U.S media propaganda machine. They know Americans are slaves to their T.V's but are getting frustrated that Americans are not waking up to it. The people of countries do not start the wars! Power hungry leaders start the wars and their media sells it to the people.

Answer 6

does it matter? all citizens of the world are nothing more than sheep.

Answer 7

"citizens of Russia" should read Gazprom.

Answer 8

they're not at war with america, georgia struck 1st and likely at the reccomendation of the US. If you don't want wars stop shooting people. fool.  

Answer 9

This with escalations in Iran and other places are what Bush hopes will allow him to void the election and become dictator and bring in his New World Order.

Answer 10

It was Georgia's president who ordered a military attack on South Ossetia.

And Georgia does not act militarily without the assent of Washington and NATO.

They attacked during the opening of the Olympics to avoid frontpage media coverage of the Georgian military operation.
