Is russia right in war with georgia?

Question

Is russia right in war with georgia?

Answer 1

The facts are that Georgia attacked unarmed civilians, including women and children. These unarmed civilians where all attacked for no other reason than they where not Georgians, these civilians where not insurgents. This means that Georgia is committing genocide. Russia already failed to deal with this issue historically in the Turkish genocide of Armenians, they are not wanting to make the same mistake twice. The second very important fact is that every nations has the legal responsibility of protecting it's citizens on foreign or domestics land, since the civilians that where killed had Russian citizenship (passports) the Russian Federation is obligated to protect their well being.  

Answer 2

By international law no. But so was NATO in Yugoslavia.

As long as they don't overdraw the reaction is absolutely

justified. Georgia deliberately targeted and killed a few

thousand civilians + a few dozen russian peace keepers

in an attack that allegedly was supposed to stop a few

russian APCs in a tunnel. Artillery can be a bit on the

scattering side. But Georgia's artillery seems to be

the new record holder in missing the spot.

Answer 3

Georgia may have been the aggressor but it was the right to tackle insurgents in its OWN COUNTRY! Russia has no right in crossing the border and declaring full out war against Georgia.

Answer 4

No.

Answer 5

yup.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Georgia invaded Ossetia, started bombing. UN refused to solve this question. What other choice did Russia have? Just sit and look how Ossetians are dying? No. Russia warned Georgia, Georgia did not react. Russia moved forces do protect Ossetians.

Answer 8

no they invaded a soveren country that has been trying to join NATO

Georgia tried to get some insurgents under control S.Ossetia

the russians were there

so they are in a shooting war

the russians also started trouble in the southern part of Georgia also on the black sea

because they want to steal their oil and their ports on the black sea

Answer 9

When one country rolls down it tanks on the streets of an other country,

more often than not, that means war...

so to answer your question:

Do you not read the news?

Answer 10

Russia did not attack Georgia the first. Russia has started to protect ossetic people from the Georgian aggression. Up to when Russia has started to protect ossetic citizens and the peacemakers - it has been killed not less than thousand peace citizens of Ossetia. Treacherous attack of Georgia against Ossetia has begun at 23.45, on August, 7th. At night, that is characteristic for Hitler. The military answer of Russia to the Georgian aggression has begun at 14.00, but already on August, 8th. Already after hundreds Russian peacemakers and thousand peace inhabitants of Ossetia were lost. Russia has not been measured to be at war. Georgia has begun intrusion on territory of Ossetia of the first. Russia all has begun protection of peace citizens. In favour of that Russia did not want war speaks some facts: 1. Day of the beginning of military aggression of Georgia - day of the beginning of Olympiad in China. On a hand of the USA to distract attention of citizens of all countries from Olympiad and by that to bring financial losses to China - to one of the main competitors on a world scene. It is no secret, that Georgia is a puppet in hands of the USA. 2. The date started of military aggression of Georgia coincides with the beginning of pre-election campaign in the USA, directly is сonnected with the candidate for presidents of the USA - senator Makkejnom. It wishes to expose Russia as an aggressor which threatens the world. And this war - business of its hands

Answer 11

And the Georgian killers are provided with the american weapon! Follow the logic :)

Georgia has attacked first, and this is supported by the US government, so American media just can not say that Georgia is not right

Answer 12

Russians didn't attack first, Ossetian separatists attacked first. Besides Ossetian separatists were supported with weapon by Russians. You may follow the logic on your own from here. ;)
