Georgian drone has been shot down by Russia MIG-29

Georgian unpiloted plane has been hit down by Russian anti aircraft forces.
NATO-Standard Radar & On-Board Video Confirm Details of Confrontation; Attack Is Latest Russian Step in "Creeping Annexation" of Abkhazia

On the morning of April 20, 2008, a Russian MIG 29 fighter aircraft blasted a Georgian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from Georgian airspace. The unarmed Georgian UAV was conducting routine surveillance above the breakaway Georgian territory of Abkhazia. Radar tracking and video transmitted from the UAV in the moments before its destruction confirm the details of the attack.

Georgian President Saakashvili said the downing of the Georgian drone, combined with Russia's April 16 decision to establish legal links with Abkhazia and South Ossetia, constituted an "unprovoked aggression against the sovereign territory of Georgia." He said the April 16 decision amounted to "legalizing the annexation of a large part of Georgia's territory."

Fuck Georgia. The video looks fake, but I hope it is real. Georgia was the true aggressor in the conflict because they attempted mass genocide on Russian civilians. Props to Russia for kicking their ass and not putting up with the bullshit from our government here in the U.S.

A fundamental flaw I see with this, is that UAV wasn't even supposed to be flying over Abkhaz territory (Georgia's official position is Abkhazia is "Georgian" territory, much like South Ossetia is also "Georgian" territory) according to the 1998 Cease-fire agreement. I mean, seriously, this is like a recorded confession of breaking a 10 year cease fire, and then you go and complain when someone else breaks it and catches you in the act? How stupid do you have to be?

@Gerhardt13 Georgian aircraft is unarmed . while Russian is armed and shooting. if anybody breaks a cease fire it is the one that fires. Russia in this case.

"Georgian President Saakashvili said the downing of the Georgian drone, combined with Russia's April 16 decision to establish legal links with Abkhazia and South Ossetia, constituted an "unprovoked aggression against the sovereign territory of Georgia." LOL What a bunch of BULLSHIT! If Russia hasn't stepped in to help Abkhazia, it would have ended up in the same way as South Ossetia did when Georgia rained rockets onto sleeping civilians!!!

Saakashvili can do what he does best, suck NATO's dick!
