(5) Russian mechanized columns were actually moving into Georgia prior to Georgias push into South Ossetia on 8 August ;==
Absolutely not true.
They need to get their story straight. US provoked it because they want McCain to get elected. No wait, US were using it as a training exercise for invasion of Iran. The Georgians were committing genocide and killed 2,000 civilians....wait, oops, we meant 200. Nevermind HRW says it was more like 44 including combatants. We didn’t get a chance to shoot those NGOs and journalists like we usually do when we catch them reporting without a handler.
It is when you consider South Ossetia a province of Georgia, as the UN and international community do.
