Considering that the South Ossetians are quite well and alive, even though since 1989 no one has come to their rescue, shows quite clearly that there was no genocide, and is most likely Russian propaganda.
Is it not probable then, that Georgia may not have even attacked South Ossetia, that we so ready accept as truth? What if it is propaganda as well? How do we know that Georgian troops were not directly provoked to shell the capital by Ossetian troops?
What I do know is. If Russia was simply trying to save the Ossetians from this alleged "Georgian Oppression" then why is it that Russia has to conquer basically all of Georgia? Seems to me like that’s just an inconvenient truth for Russia.
No one in the world, can ever say, that Russia’s Georgian invasion is a peacekeeping effort. It is as sly, dirty, and bad as when Saddam Hussein and Chemical Ali gassed the Kurds in Iraq.
]]>"South Ossetia has 90% Russian citizens because Russia distributed passports to everyone in South Ossetia."
There are so many Russian citizens in South Ossetia because Ossetians pretty well know what Georgian rule is all about (see Mkhedrioni). So they quite naturally had chosen not to be part of the state which supported genocide against them and take Russian passports instead of Georgian.
"1,500 GEORGIANS DIED, NOT Ossetians or Russians. Please use some logic when bombers and tanks of Russia enter, I highly doubt that Ossetians or Russians die."
Your advice about logic you should use first. Current conflict started not by Russian tanks but when Georgian army unleashed offencive with heavy artillerry targeting the capital of S. Ossetia kiilling hundreds of Ossetian civilians. ]]>
2) Stop with the OIL conspiracies.
3) Russia has no right to invade Georgia, and it has no right to ask for South Ossetia’s independence. South Ossetia has no right to declare independence either, because it is not suffering under any Goergian authority. Just because they have their own language or believe they are a different ethnicity doesn’t make a difference. If we were to use such ideas, then the United States should be divided into 80 nations. You never divide nations by ethnicity, national origin, or language, unless they are suffering oppression or violence under their current administration.
4) South Ossetia has 90% Russian citizens because Russia distributed passports to everyone in South Ossetia. South Ossetia is FILLED WITH GEORGIANS AND OSSETIANS not Russians.
5) 1,500 GEORGIANS DIED, NOT Ossetians or Russians. Please use some logic when bombers and tanks of Russia enter, I highly doubt that Ossetians or Russians die.
6) Russia has been amassing troops on the border of Georgia for months before this event. There is no reason for Georgia to aggravate an already aggressive Russia, and therefore, you cannot make the argument "well Georgia brought it on themselves" because they didn’t, it was all Russia.
7) NATO is not a bully, NATO is a caring mother that doesn’t know how to punish any children except to quietly ask them to stop. NATO is powerless not a bully. A real bully is actually Russia, who goes around bossing central asian and caucus nations, while at the same time blaming other nations for their problems, and while at the same time oppressing their own people since World War One. It has become a tradition in Russia to oppress others.
"Russia is no more in the 90s’ it has emerged and is emerging, and the military expenditure is very different since Russian weapons cost far less than America once but are of equal effectiveness."… Welcome to our blog, comrade. Looks like our resident Russian nationalists are popping up everywhere.9) NATO and the United States should do something. Not threaten Russia, because they will call it a bluff and keep doing what they are doing because Russia is a bully who will not stop unless someone stands up to them. NATO and the United States need to send a clear message, and enact an EMBARGO ON RUSSIA rather than maybe military action. There are loads of punishments to Russia, boycotts would ruin Russia as well.
10) Two wrongs don’t make a right. And especially Russia has no right to ask for anyone’s independence, and especially Russia has no right to invade a sovreign nation for "peacekeeping" considering Russia is the most war-mongering nation in the planet. Especially Russia does not have the right to talk about South Ossetia because they are the ones who attack Chechan separatists and terrorists, and they are the ones who get angry when nations try to move away from Russian influence. Especially Russia does not have a right to do any of this, because they are the ones that fund terrorism in countries they find as a threat. ]]>

One more fact bro… NATO will not go on a direct collision course with Russia since Russia is not a push over. NATO is only a bully, will bully the weak but will run tail tucked up the rare end when met with equal opposition.
Russia is no more in the 90s’ it has emerged and is emerging, and the military expenditure is very different since Russian weapons cost far less than America once but are of equal effectiveness.
