I was struck by the beauty in the picture. And the lighting. That is a very good photo. Apparently a lot of refugees from Gori are in Tbilisi. They are living in the government buildings. I would imagine the place now looks a mess and is full of people. If the Russians were to attack the city from a southern front opened from the southwest while simultaneously attacking through the river gorges, there would be no escape for the refugees. In 1921, the Russians just attacked from the south, so the Georgian forces and refugees were able to at least temporarily escape through the northern river gorges. They do not have that option now. If the Russians move on this city it will be a monumental catastrophe. I have got to run. Hopefully we are wrong about Russia and they finally have decided to enter the civilized world.

Take care and see you later!

And I hope we are very very wrong about Russia.
