Media coverage of this situation is not to be trusted. White House adresses on the subject are not to be trusted. Keep a cool head over their rhetoric, study the facts, learn the proper chronology, filter out inconsistencies, weed out the outright demagogy and propaganda, listen to the reports from eyewitnesses, watch the actual footage of the Georgian attack on Tskhinval that left thousands of innocent civilians dead, and their town and villages leveled, find out what the officials are not saying. I did just that and now support Russia as the only party in the region truly interested in delivering security and peace to the South Ossetians. Georgian government’s appeals are not to be trusted.

This is war, and one that involves eastern cultures with a far different history, not liberal, idealistic western lawmakers. Since most people are just getting their information from the media and believing what CNN and BSNBC are telling them consider this; Georgia picked the wrong fight at the wrong time. They've been on their "highhorse" for a long time now and thought NATO would bail them out, even though they're not in NATO. Secondly, Moscow isn't going to allow Georgia to retain strategically valuable terrain where we MIGHT have put up a missile shield (since that had been talked about). The Georgian government thought it could provoke the big dog and nothing would ever happen because someone would intervene and that's not going to happen. Democrats definitely wouldn't approve of any military OPS in Georgia to help, but they'll give lip service to it. Basically this is a small dose of reality. Laws and Treaties and such apply when people choose to abide by them. Many people will not make that choice. This isn’t in violation of any international law for one.
