Mr, Saakashvili, the Georgian Presdient, said he'd ordered his troops to open fire becaused Russian peace keeping forces, according to him, approched Georgian borders. BUT did he ordered his troops to shoot at the peace keepers? NO! He ordered his troops to shoot at Zhinvalui city, the capital of South Osetia that seeks independence from Georgia. Saakashvili's logic could have looked funny unless it had cost over 2,000 lives of citizens of Zhinvali - children, women, men, elderly people.
It's a comedy when a country's President acts like a clown. It's a tragedy for the citizens of his country when that clown, in order to attract World's attention to himself, has the power to start a war that kills people.
Joseph Badsen, the chief of US Senate's Committee for International Relationships asked South Osertia and Russia to stop fighting back. That's really funny logic. Georgia invaded South Osetia, destriyed several villages, killed thousands of children and adults. Being perfectly aware of that, Joseph Based asked South Osetia to stop fighting back and let Georgia finish their work. The cinicism of some pilitics has really no limits!
Bush said, that in 21st century civilized nations don't occupy independent states. Given occupation of Iraq by US, Bush actually called US and its alliances non-cililized nations.
