Fuck Russia and I`m not from US.I thought,that I could die peacefully in my bed.
Thanks Putin- and Bushlands I have to die whith a weapon in my hand.For the russians:all the papers you`ve signed,are not to use in toalet,same goes to USA too!
Its amazing how this has been done... a 40,000 strong NATO-standard and US equiped force was almost obliterated and from the outside it doesnt seem like Russia even broke a sweat. It is really very impressive I think.
Yeah, Russia is a much better army than ours. LOL! Aren't you at all worried about the U.S.? don't you know we have weapons that would obliterate your Country? We are right in your backyard(Iraq,Afgahnistan) while you are many many miles away. I'm not trying to disrespect you, I'm just honestly asking a question....
i know this respond comes after... 8 months i guess.. but it was just 1 ''small'' army that came to aid in ossetia, the 57th i believe, we have more up kazachstan too , if u intend on knowing, wtf u think we are retarded? putting forces on one possible front??? lol
OMG...they stole toilet sits and toothpastes. Are u starving u misereble mother fuckers or what? Like fucking Chinese, your truth is all crap..you degraded people...
I was busy with my work and didn't care that much about this war. I spent few minutes checking the facts, I can say that US screwed very bad this one. this is like a cake gift to Russia and I believe McCain is crying out loud... his support for Bush will end his dreams of the whitehouse. hey world! be ready to deal with the first nigro president? I believe Obama will do worst than Bush... it's a system and not about being smart.
Respect to russia, its about time a world power stood up to the US manipulating wars, and now because the georgia war isnt moving fast enough they force russias hand by installing a missle defense system on thier borders, effectivley nutralizing thier nuclear arsenal, so russia doesnt having viable nukes but everyone else still does, i would say that alone will force them to fight, if i know this so does those american warmonger, this means that it is the reaction they want,
so again who is to blame the cause (US) or the effect (Russias reactions). I hope russia throws down US really needs to get told no and smacked around a bit, maybe itl;l make them realize no one wants to live lives like they do, Democatic Neo fascist nations like the US are much much more dangerous than any dictator, cause the people so blind they actually think they are just and right, least people under dictators know its wrong what those evil men do. ps 800,000 dead in iraq allcause by the US
Russia's overreaction? Couple of years ago Israel bombed Lebanon back to stone ages for ONE captured solgier. Georgian shooted from tanks headquarters of Russian peacekeepers and stabbed with bayonetts the wounded. They shelled with heavy artillery civil population who is mainly Russian. Now replace the word Russian with the American. How would you react?
elfaelfael, I find the comparison of Israel's attack on Lebanon to completely unravel any neocon(US) reaction. The language used was a kidnapped soldier. Someone throwing a child in a cargo van is a kidnapping. Finding a soldier of a foreign county across your border is called capturing. Given Israel's frequent incursions this was certainly what happened. And then time was granted to "defang". Book end that with Israeli cluster bombs for civilians.Not all US citizens believe our media.
Thanks for the English lesson. However, to me "killed" sounds worse then kidnapped or captured. Murdered would be correct for several wounded peacekeepers who where "finished" by Georgian troops. Murder is also when a state starts heavy carpet bombardement of a sleeping city. By the way, the first time when Georgians tried to eliminate Ossetians was in 1920. As you see, this story has pretty long roots.
its funny how the georgian president did alot of interview on the western media no one asked him if he attact first? or why did he attact? they just try to make him lie about evil things russia doing no one asked him those questions
It is fustrating to see that Russia is always branded as bad or even evil by the western media even when they are aiding something positive. Its so much easlier to believe the disinformation against Russia than to see the reality of its progress. Russia is always viewed through the lense of its soviet past and its progress dismissed.
Euamerican, How does El Mozote grab you? Do you even know what it means? How about operation AJAX? How about labeling Guatemala a Soviet satellite to overthrow a fruit unfriendly government? Gotta kill for those bananas. Maybe US citizens where kept in the dark before but now there is no excuse with the internet. Our country is used by a powerful few to corrupt many parts of the world. We in the US have our own past to escape.
nd CNN failed to report that there were US soldiers found in the georgian dead, and that georgia had shut off the water to supply to Ossteria for a month before they attacked- just as Georgia had the right to break away from USSR so does Ossteria have the right to break away from Georgia and thier pro west brown nosing, And of Russia supported Georgias Entry into the UN, then Georgia attacks a 90% russia state.
you are right, apart from ossetia isnt a state (yet) and Russia issued passports to intervene and undermine a pro western government, they would just as quickly slaughter them like the chechyens if Tbilisi followed orders.
The western media and russian media are both takin part in the propaganda war and supporting violance and atrocities and not reporting onces committed by their own side.
South ossetia has been an independent autonomous state since 1992. The western world hasn't recognized it because both europe and the USA have designs on the region to put weapons there with the help of Georgia. Tragic for both the south ossetians and abkhazians that they are sacrificed for cold war politics.
If georgian government was under control of Kremlin, then they would probably assist georgia kill ossetians not give passports. I guess we agree that the US would flip if mexico allowed Russian missile defence on territory, but that wouldnt allow US to invade Mexico as I presume they would. If Russian was there to help then they wouldnt be in parts of Georgia proper to destory and terrorise them. Either way expansion of NATO eastwards, could easily accidentaly or not spark a nuclear war.
Why Tsetzenia trying get their independency was ruined?This is a real Januspolicy.If you try defend russian citicens all round the world,so go for it.WWIII
Chechens never tried to get their independeny. There were terrorists supported by USA and muslims from Saudi, who acted on behalf of chechen people. Now when they all are eliminated - peole vote 100% not separating!!
Yesterdy Chechen president gave official reply to american candidate mccain, that Chechnya doesnt need usa to help it to separate from russia, since it's population has voted to be part of it and that they "strongly object georgian actions".
There are many ways to translitterate the name,but it´s not the point.
Typical russian policy is to"eliminate"all,that are different opinions,
then elect some puppet as president by over 100 voteing persent.Here in West such "democrasy" would make us laugh,if it isn`t so tragic.Stop using the words " to vote
I am sorry mr. from Finland, do you know a guy called Ahtisaari???
This guy from Finland is he author of the document that gives independence to Kosovo!! So, he finished tha plan of Hitler and Mussolini, who wanted independence to Albanian FASHISTS.
Is this the type of "democracy" that you dont laught at??? Well, we do laugh at your democracy and double standards.
Why give independence to Kosovo and not give it to Osetia??? AT LEAST WE DIDNT BOMB CAPITOL TBILISI LIKE YOU DID IN BELGRADE!
Un General-Secretary Kofi Annan called Ahtisaari to conduct the peacenegotions in Kosovo.His nomination was "blessed" by Security Council(including Russia).All this happened in the beginning of Nowember in 2005.Have a nice weekend.
@m1947n some countries are looking for terrorists we are looking for russians i belive we should search in a ruins of washington there can be few russians
I agree with Suckashwili,The Russians must hold their ground and you can not do that by sitting back and watching.I am from Canada and I am embarrassed to think these criminals are supported by the west.I hope Russia crushes them like a beer can.
People who say that Russia should not go further than Ossetia are ignorant. Do you think that people should only stay at their area which is being bombed? If you dont want them to go further, send all your troops, your president and weapons to south ossetia then there would be no problem. New york was bombed "by iraq" 9/11, Did America tell its troops to stay in new york? noOo they sent them all the way to Iraq, do you know how many miles that is from America?
The former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was convicted over the killing of 148 people in the mainly Shia town of Dujail and was killed. The videos of his execution are on youtube,
The current Georgian leader Mikheil Saakashvili has killed many more than 148 people in south ossetia. Many of the victims were Russian citizens. Will there be a video of another execution on youtube soon?
That's the ticket. It wasn't the Georgians and the Russians fighting. The ZIONISTS did it, the ZIONISTS did it all! Putin is a ZIONIST, Saakashivili is a ZIONIST, the Russian bear is a ZIONIST! aaahhhahahahahahahahahahaha
Translation: Our overwhelming force of "peacekeepers" blasted the hell out of the Georgian forces defending this Georgian city, then had to make sure abandoned weapons weren't used against us. And, oh yes, we had to sink a ship which might have tried to defend the city of Gori. We have enough troops to overpower Georgia now, and don't intend to leave any time soon. Have a nice day."
"So it would be interesting to know what President Saakashvili was thinking when, on Thursday night, after days of relatively low-level shelling around the South Ossetian capital of Tskhinvali, and literally hours after he announced on state-controlled TV the cessation of hostilities, he ordered a full-scale assault on Tskhinvali."
"The scale of Thursday's (local time) attack on South Ossetia, and the preparations that were needed to carry it out suggest that Mr Saakashvili waited for the start of the Beijing Olympics with the aim of quickly grabbing control of the dissident region and then hoping that the inevitable international calls for a ceasefire, perhaps with the arrival of international peacekeepers, would lock in his newly won control of the region."
From the Times-Online, by Michael Evans, Defence Editor
"Georgia's attempt to seize control of the secessionist South Ossetia region has been a gamble too far, reckless in its timing and founded on a fundamental misjudgment. The military adventure had all the hallmarks of rushed planning, launched in the hope and expectation that the Russians would not react, but that if they did, the Americans and Georgia's other Nato friends would come to his aid in one form or another
From the BBC by Paul Reynolds - QUOTE: Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili must have thought that Russia would not react strongly when he sent his forces in on the eve of the Olympic games to regain control of a territory he had insisted must remain part of Georgia, albeit with some form of autonomy.
From Newsweek -"Some Georgians Blame Saakashvili for Russian Raids" QUOTE: A block away, two middle-aged women were crying by their ruined house. "What is he here for?" they said of Saakashvili. "What is he worth now? Can he give us our houses back?"
Josef stalin was from Georgia, city of Gori. Think about how many people Stalin killed in his regime during the Soviet Union. A Georgian killing thousands of Russian people. Presently, Georgians broke a ceasefire and killed about 2000 civilians in south Ossetia and their capital almost laid to waste. Your statement of 'Stalin being proud of Czar Putin' is completely contradictory and inappropriate.
The Soviet Union may be disliked by many even to the extend of being hated. However, Russia is not the Soviet Union now. Please also be reminded that the Soviet Union consisted of a number of countries including Georgia. Josef Stalin, a Georgian, was a very active participant in the Soviet Union. To be prejudice only against Russia because its Soviet past and to view Georgia as the victim in this conflict is being ill-informed.
EUAmerican - you are not American or from the EU. Do Russia Today need people to post on Youtube for them as well, because everyday your stories look more and more absurd
Well, excuse me, but first get out of 1957...You place the focus on ME. So - if you want to focus on me then fine. I am two classes shy from a Master's degree in security studies...
That said (irrelevant) this conflict was started by Georgia when it attacked S. Ossetia. I have presented my sources and references to make this argument- which you appear incapable to counter - other than call me names...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Russia occupy georgian territory ! Russians killed thousands of peaceful civilian in south Ossetia. Russia bombed Georgia and killed hundreds civilians. NEXT TURN IS EUROPE. STOP RUSSIA !
Not true...Georgia started the conflict though attacking South Ossetia. It is not Russia that is a threat to Europe, but continued presence of America on Europe and the US/NATO order.
Europe offers a peaceful solution, not Washington. Get America out of Europe and "allow' the European Union, otherwise America will continue to make trouble!

Your statement of 'Stalin being proud of Czar Putin' is completely contradictory and inappropriate.

The Soviet Union may be disliked by many even to the extend of being hated. However, Russia is not the Soviet Union now. Please also be reminded that the Soviet Union consisted of a number of countries including Georgia. Josef Stalin, a Georgian, was a very active participant in the Soviet Union. To be prejudice only against Russia because its Soviet past and to view Georgia as the victim in this conflict is being ill-informed.

Putin still looks like an idiot for what he's done.

EUAmerican - you are not American or from the EU. Do Russia Today need people to post on Youtube for them as well, because everyday your stories look more and more absurd

Well, excuse me, but first get out of 1957...You place the focus on ME. So - if you want to focus on me then fine. I am two classes shy from a Master's degree in security studies...
That said (irrelevant) this conflict was started by Georgia when it attacked S. Ossetia. I have presented my sources and references to make this argument- which you appear incapable to counter - other than call me names...

Not true...Georgia started the conflict though attacking South Ossetia. It is not Russia that is a threat to Europe, but continued presence of America on Europe and the US/NATO order.
Europe offers a peaceful solution, not Washington. Get America out of Europe and "allow' the European Union, otherwise America will continue to make trouble!
