One more time. There were Russian Peacekeepers at the border when Georgia launched an attack on South Ossetia and Abkazia. The information is on this blog.
Ever since that time in 2008, The West has ignored the facts. The West has created their own political propaganda that attempts to make saintlike that of the President of Georgia.
The bitter fruit of the Georgian invasion. An Ossetian woman grieves for her husband, a volunteer who fought the Georgian invaders and gave his life for his country. Let there be no more tears.

...But I think the results of an honest investigation (click here) would reveal a very different "truth" than what President Saakashvili claims.
I know this because I was in Tskhinvali, the capital of South Ossetia, on Aug. 7 when Georgian troops marched into the city and killed my friends and neighbors. I huddled with my family in terror for three nights while Saakashvili's tanks and rockets destroyed hundreds of our homes, desecrated cemeteries, gutted schools and hospitals.
I also have good reason not to trust what Saakashvili says. For three days before the attack I had been getting calls from many Georgian friends warning me to get out. They said Saakashvili was planning an attack. Most of the Georgians living in South Ossetia left because they knew what was coming....
Russia did not kill these people. Saakashvili did.
The Western press really ought to give up any broadcast in technicolor, because they are only capable of discussing Russia in black and white.
South Ossetia is not Abkhazia. Abkhazia is not the Ukraine and while Russia's intervention in South Ossetia and Abkhazia was justified to end the killing, their actions in the Ukraine are not.
Western media simply loves to put 'the evil' in THEIR world into a caricature that can be pulled up as easy as Big Bird.
