Osee

Not just west politicians. You are kind of a person of double standards. 

Ruslana
Amusing, isn't it? The West politicians stepped on their on rake of double standards.

Quote me if I somewhere claimed that non-west policians are holy and do not have double standards.

A point of view:

Georgia's Attack on South Ossetia: Washington's Role

Georgia's defense budget has grown from USD 20 million in 2001 to USD 734 million in 2007 and over USD 900 million in 2008. Accounting for inflation, this is roughly a 40-fold increase in military spending in just six years. So when Irakli Alasania, Georgia's UN Ambassador, tells the UN Security Council that his country is “a small and peace-loving nation”, the logical question should be: what does a peace-loving nation need with so many new howitzers, mortars, armored personnel carriers, tanks, missile boats, and helicopter gunships?

Where does Saakashvili get the cash to rearm his army?

On August 10 Russian news agency RIA Novosti quoted South Ossetian official representative in Moscow Dmitry Medoev saying that there were several Negroes among the Georgian troops killed during the fighting in Tskhinvali...


Over the past few years, hundreds of US military instructors were sent to Georgia to train Saakashvili's army. Several senior Pentagon officers were permanently stationed in Tbilisi to coordinate these training activities.

The Americans had to have known that Georgian artillery was preparing to slaughter hundreds of civilians in Tskhinvali. They had to have known about the large-scale movements of Georgian troops and heavy weapons.


...

After this, what do you personally feel watching how Bush, Rice, Obama, McCain and their media (CNN, FoxNews...) blame the "bad Russia" for beating the "good Georgia"?

This morning I was watching Euronews, and there's such a rubric "No comment". What they showed was some Georgians protesting against Russia.

And this is what was happening in South Ossetia and Abkhazia that time (what Euronews didn't show).

Apart from the debate about the acknoledgment of Abkhasa and S.Ossetia, why hasn't anybody proposed to sue Saakashvili for massive murder?

And what do you think is the USA Navy doing Georgia's ports?

Ruslana, perhaps you were not attentive enough. Euronews showed both Abkhazia & Russian navy (dancing in the streets and a real fiesta) and Batumi and American Navy. both pictures were very much alike. 

By the way this time it was the same as in Russian news. Maybe the imformation war is coming to the end? I hope so.

Keep wondering!

Dew, probably you're right. I've not been watching Euronews all the time so perhaps I missed something. I also hope the information war is going to stop indeed...

Delivering some humanitarian help, apparently. Big Smile (Some fresh unchewed neckties would be very apt for Saakashvili now.)

China protested against Russian recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. It seems that this is not about West against East anymore...

But it supported the Russia's actions against Georgia...

No. China does not stand with either side, although China kind of regards Russia as a friend. China hopes both sides could solve this problem peacefully; as an outsider, China does not want to make the situation complex by making any unsuitable remarks, which is a routine for China to follow about international events and which is very different from what the USA has been doing to the world.
