Watch the Rice video. She said that the Russians "attacked" Georgia.
She's right; it's true. So. Ossetia says it was attacked by Georgia, what, a week ago? And phwam! Russian troops begin bombing Georgia.
Russia was originally brought in as a part of the "peace keeping" force between two regions: So. Ossetia and Georgia. So no matter this way or that, Russia attacked Georgia. Russia took a warrish side. It did not act as a "peace keeper". Russia acted with war upon a sovereign nation, Georgia. There's no ways about this.
