Two parts of Georgia want to break off and form their own nations, South Ossetia and Abkhazia. These nations are heavily Russian controlled, Georgia thought it'd be a good idea to take these lands back from the Russians. They attacked, and guess what? Russia retaliates and CRUSHES the Georgian forces. Faux News then states Russia started it, because they're living 20 years in the past, stating "them commies are up to no good." Now all these Republitards seem to think Russia is the bad guy in the situation. Wtf? Nice job Faux...nice job.
South Ossetia has never really been part of Georgia, and I think Abkhazia is way over next to Armenia. Either way, they have been separate.
You are right about that Georgia wanted South Ossetia, and so, yes, Russia did retaliate.
Ok, so maybe Fox
did say that Russia started it...then what would liberal CNN say? Probably the same thing.
I doubt they are living 20 years ago. We got over that threat a loooonng time ago. Maybe we have been a
little edgy about some of Russia's actions, but with good reason.
Did you even know that we are allies with both nations?! So it was more like "shit, we either back Russia's cause, because we are allies, or validate Georgia's cause, because we are allies." It was probably the sympathetic liberals from CNN that were saying Russia started it, just to stand up for Georgia.
