Yeah that always works.
Thank you, chickenshit West!
The Georgians have my sympathies HOWEVER, I don’t know if I believe that the Russians are setting up death camps.
Who edits these headlines?
You cannot be slain and sent to a camp. Unless they are shipping dead bodies to camps...good grief.
Check out the 90 or so pics at this Russian link. Not for the weak stomached: many gory war casualties.
Note especially the prevalent Chechyn units. Most Russian armor is spray-painted with the unit names, including "Chechyn Vostok." The Russians are sending Chechyn muslims into Georgia, to do the dirty work.

Waffen SS is responcible for Holocaust and many of the war crimes.
Is it an accident that Saakashvili use the Nazi's camouflage? The same camouflage which was used for mass killings?
I think it isn't.
On 7th of August, 2008 Georgian armed forces, with orders from president Saakashvili invaded Republic of South Ossetia and started full-scale genocide of Ossetian nation, for so-called «Final Solution» of Ossetian Question, which shall be considered as action, equal to Hitler’s Nazi crimes.
After capturing Ossetian capital – Tskhinvali, Saakashvili’s troops murdered es. 2000 non-combatants, citizens of Tskhinvali.

During the four-month long Finnish Talvisota [Winter War, which the Soviets called the Belya Smyert, white death] the Soviet sent in a million men initially, with another half-million added in after initial losses. The Finns had fewer than 250,000 men with which to resist them, mostly ill-equipped and hastily-trained Civil Guardsment.
Four months later, at least a quarter-million of the invaders were either KIA or seriously enough wounded that they were no longer militarily useful: with missing limbs, badly burned, or, often, lungshot. Most of the Soviet casualties froze to death or bled out awaiting medical treatment that never came, having initially worn summer uniforms to what they had been told would be a short fight followed by occupation duty. Instead they got -30º temperatures of the coldest winter in 40 years, and the 20-hour long cold nights of the Arctic circle. Kruschev once stated that the Red Army hads taken a million casualties in Finland, and there's a fair chance that it was the Finnish success in repelling the Soviet visitors that convinced Hitler that if the Finns could do so well, the German Army could roll over the Red Army even easier...and so Hitler invaded Russia. But the Finns had taught the Soviets how to fight using the weather as a weapon, and the German effort failed. In 1959, the Soviets had put down uprisings of independence in East Germany and Hungary in '56, and again looked at Finland. Finland had no great army, and no massive budget, but they took their surplus and obsolete military weapons from their arsenals, including much of the foreign aid sent them during their Winter War and the equipment captured from the Soviets, and peddled it off to the American arms company Interarms, then called Interarmco. In nreturm the Finns got 250,000 WWII British 9mm Sten Guns, a quarter-million automatic weapons, enough for every Finnish soldier, reservist and civilian volunteer.
The Soviet Union's leadership decided that another visit to Finland would be just a little too expensive. And possibly, another MAJOR embarassment.
The Russian 58th Army is the one rolling through South Ossetia and Gori. They have been given the lovely knickname, “The Butchers of Grozny”.
Perhaps I could get more worked up about this if the city of Gori wasn't STILL promoting Stalin worship, with a huge statue of him and his old home as a key tourist attraction.
Honestly, I feel awful about innocent civilians caught in the middle of all this, but I suspect Putin and Saakashvili are pretty much two peas in a pod.
The B2’s should be taking out the Russian convoys, and Special Forces should be on the ground harrassing troops and vital items, already if they aren’t already, if these allegations are true.
I know we aren’t in a position for a full frontal war with Russia, but that doesn’t mean we sit by and do nothing if this is going on.
We didn’t appease Nazi Germany, at least that I can remember from reading about WWII. We went in and kicked their collective butts.
Why bother?
NATO is an old tiger with two teeth remaining in his mouth; the US and the UK and no will left to leave his lair.
The Sovi...Er Russians are sending the breakaway Georgians to reeducation camps.
Wow, the Russians must have created these concentration camps in record time. They've only had, what, about a week to construct these camps (?).
