Putin Says : “War Has Started”
Posted by N10452It looks like we are not gonna have a year without a conflict .. Georgia and Russia are on the verge of declaring open war. In fact Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said “war has started” over the breakaway region of South Ossetia as Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili accused its neighbor of a “well-planned invasion.”
Saakashvili said in a Bloomberg Television interview that his nation of 4.6 million people is “fighting to secure its borders” amid a “full-blown military aggression” involving thousands of Russian troops. Aerial bombings and wide-spread fighting in and around the region killed an unknown number of civilians and wounded “scores” more, Saakashvili said. [More]

GOD BE WITH YOU, GEORGIA
may the georgian forces DESTROY the russian forces. putin is a fucking dictator, and the pro-russian separatist politicians in south ossetia and abkhazia are fucking dictators too.

Needless to say , it’s not a fair battle. Russia killed 400,000 chechenians in less than a year … Georgia will be defeated by tomorrow. Russians dont beleive in the word ” DEFEAT”. They got land and power..

If China and Russia two of the 5 veto powers in teh security council, are non democratic states, then the whole world is in danger…China feasting on Tibet…Russia on Georgia…Syria on lebanon…Mogabe in Zimbabwe…..and so on…Iran soon will be dominating the Gulf Region…who said the cold war ended? Never ended it just stagnated……..

NOWDAYS , it is CHERCHER la USA and its tails ..in order to understrand what is happening in georgia / russia ..
the USA is DETERMINED to HIMMILIATE RUSSIA and CONQUER its BACKYARD….
the Georgian are so STUPID to
accept being used by USA and its tails………although they consider themselves very clever..
