Fierce clashes were seen between Georgian and Russian forces in South Ossetia, a pro-Russian autonomous region of Georgia.

"I saw bodies lying on the streets, around ruined buildings, in cars," Lyudmila Ostayeva, a resident of the South Ossetia capital, Tskhinvali, told The Associated Press.

"It's impossible to count them now. There is hardly a single building left undamaged," she said after fleeing to a village near the Russian border, AP reported.

One U.S. State Department official called the conflict a "very dangerous situation" and said diplomatic moves are afoot around the globe to stop it.

when US forces attack, the International reputation grows, coz they it is a fight for so called "democracy", when Russia does, it damages its reputation.

what a bitch...

Of course, Russia's image has not been damaged. Most Americans know we would respond exactly the same to a similar provocation by an aggressor. At the same time, this incident clearly shows many have been lying about the military weakness of Russia.

As for western leaders (USA, UK, etc), they've been trying to undermine or destroy Russia for much of the last century (starting with 1918-19 invasion by western forces during the Russian Civil War), so there is no positive image to damage.

USA - IN FUTURE,YOUR DIED

@rich5248...I agree with you about CNN, MSNBC and FOX News. Also add the biased morons at ABC, CBS and NBC. These amateurish idiots are a joke to anybody with an IQ over 100 who isn't a braindamaged, brainwashed, ignorant, uninformed, misinformed, naive, delusional dupe. People need to get their news from several sources and then make up their own minds on an issue. It's called the dumbing down of entire societies.

[rich5248]

Fuck CNN, MSNBC, Fox News and all the biased news outlets in the U.S.
