Why is the media claiming that Russia Attacked When Georgia, along with the U.S. Military advisors

Question

Why is the media lying again? There have been reports for over a month now of a U.S. military buildup there and that Georgia shot down some Russian planes to provoke the whole thing.

Why is the media covering up the truth? There are many credable links on these pages to validate this.

Answer 1

You've got it precisely backwards.  The Georgian people are sovereign over their own lands, and are free to invite whoever they like into their country to conduct military training exercises.  It's the Russians who cannot get it through their heads that the Soviet Union is dead, and Russia is no longer in charge of what happens in its former conquered territories.

Answer 2

Don't trust any media.

U.S. supports Georgia, because there is some interest in it. I've been to Georgia many times. Georgians are great people. But, their President is an obnoxious politician, who sells his country (currently to the West). Osetia is a country divided into two administrative territories: Northern is in Russia and Southern is in Georgia. Osetians want to be a free country, mostly from Georgia, because it's a long term ethnic conflict. The President of Georgia is playing a bad political game, in which a lot of innocent people die. He should be judged, but unfortunately he is supported by the U.S. So, it sort of complicates things.

Answer 3

the bottom article is far from a credible link (his site makes him look like a crackpot at least). The upper article(s) actually claim(s) that Russia is the Aggressor and states that the US has some military in an ALLIED nation to help train their troops.

Try again.

Answer 4

Jim is Right...

Here is the most credible American Magazine out there stating that Georgia invaded South Ossetia, and Russia came to defend South Ossetia.

Answer 5

The media may not be lying but they obviously distort or omit the truth of some events. What are the US troops doing in Georgia if not to provoke the Russians. In my opinion, the Georgians started the war, let them end it, I am not going to die for someone who started bullying another country and who is now getting the worse out of it.

Answer 6

The United States has had troops in Georgia for years. They are there to train the Georgian Army for exactly what is going on right now. Georgia only shot down the Jets because of the Russian attack in Ossetia. The only media that is lying is the state sponsored Russian media

Answer 7

>The Georgian people are sovereign over their own lands

Ha, sovereign. So thats why they are killing civilian people now? I'm gettin better from this words.

It's the Russians who cannot get it through their heads that the Soviet Union is dead

> Russians are protectin their people, protecting osettian people. I'm from Osettia I DO NOT WANT TO BE IN GEORGIA. This is my country.

Georgian president lies, he lies everytime. He promised peace but he kills people. Now is olimpic games he do this agrresion when noone see it coze whole world are watching olympic games now.

Answer 8

No that's not correct. First our advisors left a month ago. Second if Russia sent one of there fighters into Georgian airspace, than Georgia has the absolute right to shot them down.

Answer 9

Infowars is not a credible source.  Not even when they link back to themselves.
