Hello,

Today Putin has left no doubt about his thoughts on the USA. Medvedev seems to be very quiet in this issue and that worries me…..
——————————————————————
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said the U.S., which has backed Georgia’s NATO membership aspirations, is hampering the peacekeeping operation in South Ossetia by flying the Georgian troops from Iraq to Georgia.

“It’s a pity that some of our partners instead of helping are trying to get in the way, I mean the United States using its military transport aircraft to relocate Georgia’s military contingent from Iraq virtually into the conflict zone, among other things,” Putin said during a government meeting.

Putin said pulling Georgian troops out of Iraq would not change the situation, but called the move a “step back from a settlement.”

He said he was astonished by the double standards and cynicism of U.S. foreign policy and accused U.S. diplomats of retaining a Cold-War mentality, labeling the aggressor the victim while the real victim ends up being blamed as the aggressor.

“Of course, it was right that Saddam Hussein was hanged for butchering several Shia villages, while the current Georgian rulers, who wiped out ten Ossetian villages in no time and burnt people alive in their homes, must be protected,” Putin said sarcastically.

A top Russian diplomat accused foreign media on Sunday of showing pro-Georgian bias in their coverage of the ongoing conflict. (Link)

I see something different than most people are seeing, I see a upset Putin but I see a pissed off Medvedev! (Medvedev is way to quiet!)

Georgia is in trouble with a capital T!

US sends more arms to Georgia – Israeli media

The United States is sending fresh supplies of weapons to Georgia from its base in the Jordanian port of Aqabah. That’s according to the Israeli newspaper – Maariv.

The paper says the US began flying weapons from the transport hub on Saturday.

According to Maariv, the US is hiring Russian-made freight planes belonging to UTI Worldwide Inc. to transport arms and ammunition to Georgia. The paper says the Pentagon is redirecting supplies to Tbilisi that were earmarked for Iraq.

The Aqabah terminal is used by the US to supply troops in Iraq. The American military relies on the hub mainly because it’s safer to use Aqabah than Iraq’s own ports in the Persian Gulf.

Georgia stocks a wide range of weapons from many sources. This is a strategic move in case Russia were to block off the channels through which it gets its military supplies.

I hope this is not true, if it is, America just put the nails in Georgia’s coffin! Lets wait to see what Medvedev and Putin say.

Funny (Not Ha Ha!) How the Georgia controlled Water supply of South Ossetia has started working again. Seems that Georgia cut the water supply over a month ago…..

Water supply resumed in South Ossetia’s capital

The mains water supply has been restored in South Ossetia’s capital of Tskhinvali, the administration of the violence-torn breakaway Georgian region said on Monday.

I guess all the bombing fixed the water supply! Now they just need new pipes to run it in…

Georgia on my mind!

Hello,

My day has been made! George Bush showed his power…..

“I said this violence is unacceptable,” Mr Bush said, adding: “I was very firm with Vladimir Putin.

Talk about the “Pot Calling the Kettle Black!” (Link)

In a stinging attack on the US, Putin told government ministers: “It’s a pity that some of our partners, instead of helping, are trying to get in the way”.

He said the US was using “its military transport aircraft to relocate Georgia’s military contingent from Iraq virtually into the conflict zone”.(Link)

BP Said Russia’s Jets Didn’t Attack Oil Pipeline in Georgia

Hello,

Russia wake up! Western media just like its counterpart the Eastern media has been lying so long that they are experts. The Iraq War is a perfect example of this!
——————————————————————————
“We want television screens in the West to be showing not only Russian tanks and saying Russia is at war in South Ossetia and with Georgia, but also to be showing the suffering of the Ossetian people, the murdered elderly people and children, the destroyed towns of South Ossetia, and [regional capital] Tskhinvali. This would be an objective way of presenting the material,” Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin told a RIA Novosti news conference. (Link)
——————————————————————————
So forget the front page coverage of truth in Western (USA) Media. The Government controls the media!

By the way to clarify something: I consider Western media to be from the USA side of the world. The media that is from Europe has a different tone to it, than the far West media. So when I say East and West media I use the Atlantic Ocean as a dividing line. Remember Russia is considered part of Europe…… (well some times!)

Trolls are Bad!

Hello,

Once again I have to continue to moderate comments and I never should have to do that, but seems that from the American side of the world we have a desire to express ourselves with colorful verbalizations that have no reason or place on a public blog.I consider this to be an example of American mentality…

We have readers from all over the world and even if our readers from Ukraine and Georgia do not like what we say they do not express themselves in a vulgar way. I even have an American from Ukraine that does not like what I say, but he at least shows the intelligence to write civilized.

Out of around 30 comments I could only post about 5 or 6. These comments have been from this side of the world and they are respectable.

What is a Internet Troll?
The term derives from “trolling”, a style of fishing which involves trailing bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The troll posts a message, often in response to an honest question, that is intended to upset, disrupt or simply insult the group. (This group does not cuss!)

So comment moderation will stay in effect forever, We just do not like colorful explicits gracing our front page comment section.

‘Bombed’ Tblisi airport welcomes foreign ministers:
Pictures broadcast all over the world on Sunday show Georgian officials greeting French and Finnish foreign ministers arriving at Tbilisi International airport. The images showed no sign of damage to the building or its airstrips. Earlier, Georgia claimed Russian planes bombed the capital’s airport.

In another development, the Georgian government has backtracked on an earlier accusation that Russian planes bombed two military bases near Tblisi overnight. A new statement from the Ministry of Internal Affairs says that bombs were dropped on uninhabited areas.

Russia insists its airforce has only attacked military targets. (Link)

Bet CNN does not print this either. All Western media is now at the Bad Russia, poor Georgia stage and seem to be stuck in that mode.

Now be watching for Ukraine to be flapping their mouths and waving their arms. Ukraine loves the Western world as much as Georgia……. (Next up poor Ukraine)

Geographical IgnorancePosted by Lew Rockwell at August 10, 2008 11:13 PM

No wonder the US Department of Education has its indoctrination factories ignore geography. How many American realize that the country of Georgia borders Russia? For years, as part of its “great game,” the US has been arming and training Georgian troops – and profiting the US military-industrial complex – at the expense of the American taxpayer. I wonder how Republican jingoes and other neocons would feel about Russia arming and training Mexican troops?

How True!
