That’s right. These people only want freedom after all.
I am sure Russia will cut them loose immediately and never look back.

Stalin was ethnically Russian, he spoke Russian, he held Russian traditions and culture to high regard. And, he was from S. Odessa, which was part of the Russian Empire.==

So funny:). Stalin was born in Gori, Georgia. His father and mother were georgians. In Gori you may see the monuments of Stalin and muiseum.

You must check your last pictiure. There is the M-48 tank (the american tank). So A-10 on your picture maulled the american tank with the great success. Congradulations:).

With the modern russin armor like t-72B not speaking about t-80 or t-90 this A-10 would be shoot down first. Because those tanks equipped with anti-aircraft guns and escorted by ZSU-23s at least. A-10 will be sitting duck in the real combat with real russian tanks that is why they were decommissioned sometime ago.

Like the Afghanies did to the Russian air Force or like the Russians did when they dropped little bomb toys to Afghani villages to blow the arms off little children and blind them when they played with your bomb toys. Haven’t you stole enough toilet potato washers out of Georgia yet? Now don’t be Stalin, tell the truth!

Toy bombs is just the fairy tale you know. No prove of that except hear-says.

Russians do not like to torture the POWs as Afgani did. We consider it the the act of cowardice. Only coward may torture the unarmed. It is beneath contempt.

As for popato washers. We didn’t find none in Georgia. But found few Hamvees with very interesting sattelite communication stations of military kind. Especially thier encryption blocks! And 65 new tanks. About 100 military trucks. Few thousands of M-4s with million of catridges were interesting too. Thanks to Georgians:).

Great news! Now your soldiers have something else to practice on each other with rather than sodomy and ritualistic torture!

Stalin’s father was an Ossetian cobbler. Just for clarification. Not that Stalin’s ethnicity has anything to do with anything. Hitler was Austrian, I don’t think that warrants a military incursion into Austria.

His father name is Dzugashvilli. It resembles the current Gorgia’s presient name: Saakashvilli. They are both georgian names. Even Lasha do not deny that Stalin is ethnic Georgian.
Georgians in Gori cherish his memory so they have the monuments of Stalin there. It is very strange of them to have the monuments dedicated to “osetian” in thier town given thier hostility toward Osetians.
