The time will show what really happened and who did what. So far we know that Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili ordered the assault on South Ossetia thinking he can solve the problem within 48 hours. Everyone knew that Russia would give strong military response. If Saakashvili did not know that then it's time for him to resign ASAP because his action seriously endangered the very existence of the country of Georgia. http://www.huliq.com/66293/russia-says-military-action-georgia-over#comments World Georgia Russia South Ossetia Tue, 12 Aug 2008 06:39:22 -0500 admin_huliq 66293 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/66270/russiageorgia-cold-war-echoes The Russian assault on Georgia, and reactions to it here in the USA, bring memories of the Cold War - especially the echoes of Hungary in 1956. http://www.huliq.com/66270/russiageorgia-cold-war-echoes#comments World Cold War Georgia Russia Mon, 11 Aug 2008 17:26:01 -0500 admin_huliq 66270 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/66259/georgia-russia-refuse-back-down-while-diplomatic-efforts-are Russian planes continued bombing raids on Georgia Monday, ignoring international appeals for the country to observe Georgia's offer for a cease-fire. Russian leaders say Georgia has yet to fully honor the cease-fire, claiming that Georgian forces have continued to attack the breakaway province of South Ossetia's capital, Tskinvali.
