Video report from Jason Maloney and Kira Kay on HDNet's World Report. Aired 8/19/08. World Report is inside Georgia before and during the Russian onslaught, with exclusive access inside disputed territories. We look beyond the military story, at the roots of this conflict, America's involvement, and whether it might lead to a bigger, more dangerous fight.

This report is part of Pulitzer Center-sponsored project "Georgia and Beyond: Russia's Response to Separatism and Ethnic Conflict" (http://bit.ly/vq1rn1).

This is USA war.

USA empire rewards their ass lickers and punishes those who do not lick USA ass.

For example Croatia August 1995 Croatian invasion of separatist region Serbian Krajina where USA military heavy involvement 350.000 Serbs expelled text book example of ethnic cleansing.

1999 Albanian terrorists and USA army kicking Serbs out of Kosovo and rewarding Albanians with Serbian land Kosovo.

as we all now know the EU commission stated that it was Georgian agression and Russia had all the legal rights to militarily responce to Georgian agression on disputed territory where Russian troops were stationed according to peacekeeping mandate issued to Russia by UN and OSCE (EU)...

GeoAbkhazeti01,

Что ты несёшь здесь? Это после того, как Грузия обстреляла, а затем вошла в Южную Осетию на тяжелой бронетехнике и убивала уцелевших осетин уже в подвалах. А по поводу стрельбы по "братьям", так это скажи своему мрази-саакашвили, а не Русским.

Nato and USA can't resolve the conflict and RUssians can right? according to your logics.

YOu think that Georgian-abkhaz getting together is not possible? than what do you suggest?because as much as abkhazians are determined that they don't want to live in Georgia the same way every single Georgian is determined that we are not going to give up our land, where our ancestors lived for centuries and where our home is.start war again and turn or homeland into battelfield of Russia_USA?

[Sophiegeo]

So we should just ignore all the Georgian who have lived in their homeland for centuries and their voting rights and base everything on the will of Some abkhazians, who them selves are not clear do they want independence or being part of Russia? What is your answer to those people whose grandparents, and grand grandparent have lives in Gali or other ergions and now they are forced to live their homeland just because Russian federation wants to use this conflicts as the source of provocation?

[Sophiegeo]

This absolutely propagandistic video,whole 16 minutes of telling us the history of abkhazia, together with how democratic they are showing young generation with their ambitions, and only 4 minutes showing Georgian side..Maybe you should have gone and asked some more Georgian refugees what they think? maybe you should also have interviewed Georgian young people? maybe you should have talked to the historians and not base your report upon on what Bagabsh and his sepratistgovernment has to say!

Русские оккупанты должны покинуть территорию Грузии!!!

Мы, абхазы, просим Россию покинуть территорию Грузии, так как Грузия наша родина и мы не хотим воевать против своих братьев!!!
