If kosovo got independence shouldn't south ossetia?

Question

South oseetians want to be independent from georgia so why shouldn't the usa support them? it's not fair that kosovo is the only breakaway province to get the green light from washington.

Answer 1

because "should" and reality are two different things entirely. and this is coming from a Democrat

Answer 2

Everyone south of the mason dixon should be "free" too? Except the blacks, of course. Russia is trying to make it a simple game, but it's much more complex. Georgia ****** up, but they shouldn't have been treated the way they were.

Answer 3

South Oseetians should get their Independence too. why does everything has to go through US? It doesn't concern them, but it actually does, cause if they get their Independence the US cant get to the oil that is in that region.So that's why the US don't support their independence. It sucks that US controls the whole world.  

Answer 4

Western medium are very biased.

imagine if the Chinese sent their army into Tibet to suppress all the rebellious activities going on in Tibet, they would be crucify.  

while it is perfectly fine for the Georgian to go into South Ossentia and do whatever the h**l they wanted. And i thought it was really justified that the Russian came in and helped out, since majority of them bear the Russian passport.

The NATO/US aided the Kosovo in obtaining their independency because it was part of Russia, which they disliked up unto even now.

It is perfectly fine for their beloved Georgia to do whatever inside their border, but if it were someone they dislike, anticipate for the hordes for bad public relation. Western Propaganda at their Best.      

Answer 5

That depends, are Georgians honestly on a campaign of genocide to wipe out South Ossetians?

Speaking of Kosovo, Russia had blocked US attempts to use the UN to intervene in Kosovo.  

Answer 6

No.

Answer 7

ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW MANY LIVES WERE LOST FOR KOSOVO'S INDEPENENCE?????

INCLUDING american lives?????

yes, every place that wants to be free should be free. sure but recognize that a blood bath and loss of our family and friends will be the cost of this freedom.

flint, michigan can go next for the free thing

then every other city and state of every single country.

yes that will be lovely.

Answer 8

there wasnt a war for ossetias independence

for kosovo there was...lives were lost

and let it be known Kosovo is independent...but it has not been officially recognized by all countries....but it is not serbian land/territory..

Answer 9

Because South Ossetia has strong bonds with Russia, meaning anything that is supported by Russia will likely get rejected by the US. Also, notice why the US supported Kosovo, but not Russia? It's all politics.

But, Georgia was actually killing civilians in South Ossetia, for me wondering why the US didn't support them was truly hypocritical. Good question.

Answer 10

Kosovo is still a guinea pig.

Don't fool yourself.
