Question

Why does everybody keep 'forgeting' that Russia entered South Osettia HOURS AFTER Georgian STARTED BOMBING S. Osettia?

CNN, Fox, BBC any of this channels does not inform. If Russia would not enter to S. Osettia, all of Osetin people would be killed by Georgian army/

When Russia has entered in S. Osettia already were lost 1500 ossetin people, Tskhinvali is destroyed by the Georgian army. But about it everyone are silent, everyone speak only about that that Russia ostensibly has attacked on Georgia, that it the first has attacked

Answer 1

I believe that when people see Russia and Georgia in the same sentence, their minds flash back to the peaceful demonstration turned bloody back in the 90's. I suppose they can't help it. Personally, that's exactly what I did!

Fact of the matter is, Ossetia is a breakaway Georgian state that favors Russia. Georgia is trying to prevent this from happening. And truth be told, there is still bad blood between the Russians and Georgians. That's just how it is.

I think everyone should step back and also see the ethnic tensions between the Ossetian and Georgian people. What I see, I can only describe as genocide.

Regardless, there's no easy way to choose which side to ally with, or who is just. The only reasonable course of action is to push for a cease-fire and allow things to cool for a bit. Then rely on foreign relations and negotiation to put out this fire.

Answer 2

the people of S. Osettia are running into Georgia as refugees I am here seeing it with my own eyes
