Bombardment of Tbilisi Airport in the Russian Georgian War

[aviomaster]

Compare this to --- USA bombing of SERBIA march 24 1999 for 78 days B-2 B-52 bombers plus 3 Aircraft carriers.

We can say what Russia did in Georgia is --- Peace and LOVE.

While I sympathize with Georgia, the target that was bombed was a factory that makes Su-25 planes, which was bombed twice during the war. While I disagree with Russia's actions, what they attacked was a legitimate military target.

@warpedcomedy Yep, isn't it pretty ironic if this jet is bombing an assembly line it was built on?:)

травка горит,самолёты туды-сюды,весёлое ржание грузин,где ковровые бомбордировки водородными бомбами?цинизм процветает...

[Kozyretti]

I don't see any bombs. It's a smoke only.

[zombieseezombiedo]

yet just two days later French ambassadors... and who ever else had no problem landing in this carpet bombed airport. on which they dropped five hundred thousand kiloton bombs.

i know hu?

It's because the bombs missed the runway. You could have found out that information with a single web search. Posting ignorant comments is easier I guess.

[strizhi]

Sure as we all know Russians are good at missing but somehow they manage to hit houses instead. You're the ignorant one, Russians use high precision laser guided bombs and those don't miss. Besides even a dumb bomb would have a hardtime missing a runway simply do to how big they are. Don't believe me just look at WWII and our B-25 which was prop driven and dropped bombs far less sophisticated than today and stil getting good hits rendering runways useless.

[strizhi]

Basic point that was a fabricated story to try to side with Georgia which was rendered hollow just like the bombing of Gori. Shakashvili is becoming more and more unpopular with his own people as the truth is starting to come out. Georgians are now starting to feel they were betrayed and I doubt Shakashvili is gonna win the next election unless candidates start to die off or election become fixed.

It was a former military poligone, which was bombed and it was only a few hundred meters away
