Yes, I've seen that pop up on a blog now too.

It sounds like the tanks that were in Gori have moved out on the highway towards the capital. My guess is that they may be taking up positions along the highway rather than moving on the capital itself.

BBC correspondent has visually confirmed this. Large number of armored vehicles moving at speed on the main highway from Gori to Tbilisi . . .

what’s the play . . . whether they are going into the captial our not this is not going to play well internationally. They may have had some modicum of support up to the cease fire, but it doesn’t look like Georgia breached the cease fire . .

CNN reporter saying that a line of Russian vehicles heading for Tbilisi at 30 kph! He can’t see the end of the column. Armoured personel carrier, tanks and many trucks full of troops.
