If the Russian column finds Natalee Holloway’s head, it can be breaking.
Oh wait, I mean Laci Petersons missing head...and Chandra Levy’s arms.
About 2 am there now, I doubt any body is moving around to report on anything till daylight or untill incoming.
I should have said this earlier. I will be praying for your friends. May God have His hand of protection over them all.
A Russian general said his forces were there to remove weaponry and help restore law and order in Gori, which lies some 15km (10 miles) from South Ossetia and on a key route to the Georgian capital, Tbilisi.
The BBC’s Natalia Antelava in Tbilisi said plans for a joint patrol force by the Georgian police and Russian military had failed.
Our correspondent said there were also reports of Russian military vehicles moving around the town of Senaki and the Georgian Black Sea port of Poti in western Georgia.

Here is a better one that you can pin point and magnify. http://encarta.msn.com/map_701510731/Georgia_(country).html
The foreign minister of Russia said Thursday that Georgia could “forget about” getting back its two breakaway provinces, and the former Soviet republic remained on edge as Russia sent tank columns to search out and destroy Georgian military equipment.
Uncertainty about Russia’s intentions and back-and-forth charges clouded the conflict two days after Russia and Georgia signaled acceptance of a French-brokered cease-fire, and a week after Georgia’s crackdown on the two provinces drew a Russian military response.
I bet that Georgia does not accept the cease fire brokered by France and upon that announcement friday or saturday the russians stay put where they are or advance further. From what I understand the french brokered cease fire gives russia too much leeway.
Just a blurb on FNC, Tanks headed toward capitol???Midnight in Georgia right now.
Secure it’s flank? Do you think they expect some invasion through Turkey, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan or Armenia?
If so, from whom?
Russia needs control of the entire Transcaucasia region, so do not be surprised to see Russia attack Armenia and Azerabiajan or else manipulate the two to resume their war over Nagorno-Karabach, then step in as “liberators” and “peacekeepers.”
