What do you think of the Russian-Georgian conflict?

Question

I read that Georgia was teasing the Russian bear with a stick, thinking the American eagle would back them up, and then they got mauled by the bear.

Answer 1

I think it might be a show of might from the Russian Bear seeing that the USA is in a weakened position and likely to get more vulnerable with Obama in charge

Answer 2

The reasons of this conflict are to be rendered to the U.S.A. and their leadership which attempt in every possible way to struggle Russia by expanding and establishing their NATO alliances and their friendly and faithful puppet leaders (like Saakasvili) in the vicinity of Russia, causing (for the moment) trouble to it, like the South Ossetia issue, and simultaneously accepting on their soil the establishment of U.S.A. missiles targeting Russia.

Georgia, especially under the present regime and government is an instrument for this purpose.

Georgia had the perfect backing by Bush and Co when it first bombed Ossetia, using U.S.A. ammunition and having already invented some "reasons", and at the same time has all the western media on its side, distorting the truth and painting a devil's image for Russia and a martyr's one for Georgia.

Therefore Georgia massacred South Ossetians, provoking thus Russia to intervene to protect them, and open the way for U.S.A. to put their foot there.

The U.S.A. invade other countries for less serious reasons, and they stay there, like in Iraq, while Russia already withdrew its troops from Georgia.

And let's not forget the U.S.A. imperialistic past: The war of Vietnam, the invasion and occupation of Iraq, the creation and support of cruel dictatorships in South - Latin America, the division of Cyprus, and so on, not to mention the most horrible concentration camp in history, Guantanamo.

And it sounds so ironical listening to Bush preaching about "Democracy", "Freedom", "Peace" and "Justice"....

Remember the invasion to Grenada.

Answer 5

Georgia asked for it. I think Russians are only taking up for their own. After watching the news, I have to say it's abnormal for Americans to disagree with what Russia is doing when Bush has carried on a war for YEARS.

Answer 6

If I were Russia I would take the whole country because the stinking yellow cowardly NATO hasn't the guts to stop you especially the brits and the yanks. All they have is WORDS, Go for it Russia.

Answer 7

hi,

Last week, Georgia's president invaded South Ossetia during the night, much as Adolf Hitler invaded Russia in 1941. Within hours, Georgian troops destroyed Tskhinvali, a city of 100,000, and they killed more than 2,000 civilians. Almost all of the people who died that night were Russian citizens. They chose to become citizens of Russia years ago, when Georgia refused to recognize South Ossetia as a non-Georgian territory.

The truth is that, in this case, Russian aggression actually made some sense. Russia defended its citizens.
