Georgians protected Ossetians from the Mongol invaders. Now South Ossetia is controlled by Russian gang loyal to Kremlin and only official language is Russian (No Ossetian!) These territories are for the Georgians like Kosovo for the Serbs!

OH, the Mongol invasions, why that was like last decade, right? Or do you mean things changed over a period of 700 years? Oh you couldn't mean that.

As for the genocide and ethnic cleansing only someone in total denial would voice your call....the proof is everywhere, do a google search. The S.Ossessians want to reunify with the N.Ossessians...now imagine that. To compare this with the Serbs only works in your case if you are defending the Albanians, which I believe on one thread you were.

Ehh?? Which Georgians would that be since there were 3 Georgian kingdoms at that time and all were conquered by the Turks. The Abkhazians weren't rid of the Turks until the Russians arrived. Gads, you're one huge revisionist.

Keep your lies back! Source: Abkhazia

In the 16th century the area was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, during which the Abkhazians partially converted to Islam. The Ottomans were pushed out by the Georgians, who established an autonomous Principality of Abkhazia (Abkhazetis Samtavro in Georgian) ruled by the Sharvashidze dynasty.

As for the genocide and ethnic cleansing only someone in total denial would voice your call....the proof is everywhere, do a google search. The S.Ossessians want to reunify with the N.Ossessians...now imagine that.

I remember very well that around 300K of Georgians were expelled from Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

To compare this with the Serbs only works in your case if you are defending the Albanians, which I believe on one thread you were.

No, international standards must be the same. This is historically Georgian land still with significant Georgian minority. That is exactly the same thing like in Serbia. Both Abkhazia and South Ossetia have still significant Muslim minority, mostly because they ethnically close to the Iranians and the Turks.

The S.Ossessians want to reunify with the N.Ossessians...now imagine that.

So they must ask Russia wherever they agree North Ossetia to join Georgia. Simple isn’t it?
