What did you hear about Russia and Georgia conflict? Who did start the war?

Question

I heard that in USA some media are constantly talking that Russia started that war. Is it true?

Answer 1

both of them

Answer 2

No Georgia started the war by bombing South Odessa,where Russian civilians live killing hundreds including some Russian peacekeepers.Russia sent in troops to protect their own civilians and destroy all Georgian military forces. Just what any country to do. Remember the British with the Falklands issue. They did just the same and were hailed as heroes.  

Answer 3

Gerogia invaded South Ossetia first!

Answer 4

Yes, Michael W is right, Georgia attacked South Odessa because even though South Odessa was part of Georgia, Georgia mistreated S. O. so they did not follow the Georgian rules and leaders, but now the Georgians tried to take control over S.O. but Russian Troops were sent in to protect the South Odessians and the people fro Abhasia (i dunno if i spelled it right) im russian and i watch the news so they tell the real truth there. Its just americans are allies with georgia and they will do anything to make russia look bad... even though we help yyou guys alot with stuff, like 9/11
