Russian Agressors, leave my Country, or You all gone dye! #31 (permalink) Tue Aug 12, 2008 16:44 pm   Russian Agressors, leave my Country, or You all gone dye!
 

The latest news I heard was the Russian are still bombing Georgians even after their president, Medvedev declared a cease fire.

And Alex, I think it is not true that Che misled us. We are capable of thinking for ourselves and I am trying as best as I can to follow the news and understand the history between Russia and Georgia.

I only sympathize with him because it's his country that is under attack and he is actually in combat to protect his family and comrades.

I also understand your loyalty for your country but as I see it we don't have to agree with every goverment policy. There are A LOT of policies of my government that I don't agree with but I am wise enough to understand that the government policies don't necessarily reflect the mainstream people of my country.

So do I. He just got caught in the cross-fire between Russian and Georgian war machines, he is a citizen and he is under attack, so it's no wonder that he feels angry at the invaders. But before saying that the Russians "are gona dye" he should've weighed the situation up and partly blamed his mischief on Georgia, and he shouldn't've tried to make it out as though Georgia is innocent.

Hi Che
Frankly, after some of the things you've posted in the past, it amazes me that you now think of the US as a friend, and also ask for US support.

It seems to me that hysteria, wild threats and retaliation are things that serve only to worsen things further. What do the people of South Ossetia want? If the South Ossetians want outside help and support, then I say it should come from Europe. You must know as well as I do that if the US got involved in this conflict, we would once again simply be vilified as "aggressors".

I hope we'll hear from Pamela in this thread. I'd like to hear her opinion.

Right, Nina... Medvedev said they'll stop. Who knows if the order has moved down the chain of command yet?

If you would notice that Pamela at the beginning had used location South Ossetia and later just when Putin has given Green Light for annexation she had changed for location Russia Federation.
I guess, she might be very much in trouble now somewhere underway as refugee or even death, it is very sad but people are still unable to understand that war brings mostly death and poverty.
I am as most Polish deeply moved by treachery character of Russians they may do some brainwash with Germans or French even Americans but to understand what is going on would be enough
to see how Russians interpreted some obvious facts from our history I mean very very obvious facts.
Like 17 September 1939 , Katyn , Warsaw Uprising , after war their terror in Poland and painful crushing the rest of democracy.

You may be afraid of Russians good , You may not like any trouble good , You may mean business good ....

but don't try people who would keep hands of death kins just killed by bandits to believe that these are all their faults because they were doing something bad to bandits first.

South Ossetians are awfully used by Putin and he does not care of them at all.

Putin has stopped that war for now because it is to much bad in memory of all Russians neighbors nations.
From Finland , to Japan people just remember, and would watch carefully.

Bush, Schroeder,Mitterrand have done something very very bad before , they had allowed to break the alliance with USA EU just to perceive their particulars temporary aims and had been completely forgetting that only together democracies are strong enough to defend themselves.

Esperanto for everybody freedom and independence for Georgia

Tom, both countries have agreed to return their army to pre-conflict positions but according to the news, the shootings is still going on. What style of cease fire is this?

Let's just hope we hear from Pamela and Guro soon.

Hi
I'm interested ,what did I write,that amazes You,I can think of US as a friend ?
US government supports us ,this is a fact and You could watch the statemants of The president and other officials...
Support doesn't mean We're asking American soldiers to fight for us,I know this will never happen...
Poland ,Ukraine,Litva,Latvia,Estonia and others,The Countries around , who know really what is Russia,support us...

We let many of our subjugates go at some time in the past, gave them freedom. Have the decency to do the same to South Ossetia !

I myself watched a vid of Georgian soldiers on a tank running over an elderly woman with a child. If you think that is normal, I have nothing to say.

Yes,I'm a civilian and I don't want war,but I fighted to protect my Country from Russian agressors, as a reservist!!
They've controll now under some of Our cities and they're robbing these cities and torturing civilians and Saakashvili ordered not to open fire,I didn't like this decision but We have to obey !!!
If they stay,they all gone dye,at least We will try to kill every occupant on Georgian land!!!
