War In Georgia
South Osetia reported thousands dead in Ckhinvali after the city was bombed last night by the Georgian military forces.
Russian bombers have dropped some bombs onto the military camp Vasiani 25 kilometers from the Georgian capital Tbilisi. Several American experts are working in that camp on the permanent basis.
Michael Saakashvili has reported two Russian SU-24 fighters has been taken down.
There was no russian bombers over Georgia and, of course, none of it was taken down. Saakshvilli is lier, and, as it seems from this side - idiot.
But, AFAIK, some russian forces are moved to Ckhinvali.
P.S. No one wants war. War is the need of politics and dirty buisyness only.

Russian mass media have reported that Russian air forces have attacked the Georgian military camp at Gori and totally destroyed the sea port in Poti.

Russian department of CNN is not russian mass media. As I saw your information about two taken down air fighters, I thought you were talking about Saakashvillis petitions, which are totally lie.
But you’re right, as russian mm say now, som strikes were taken over georgian positions.

Russians have confirmed that they’ve lost two warplanes. Georgians talking about 10 warplanes taken down. Well, while the latter number is quite controversial, the former one is confirmed by Russians.

But still, as I can see from headline, you’re getting information from CNN or BBC, because what you call as “war in Georgia”, our mass media call “war in South Osetia”, feel the difference.
As I have read, those companies claim “Russian intrusion” even after the UN submitted genocide of osetians from georgian side.
One of the first CNN pictures of events, showing “Russia shooting Georgia” were, in real, pictures of georgian mortars and artillerian mount “Grad”, bombing Ckhinvali. Thousands of civillians dead and wounded under georgian bombardment, lot’s of them - citizens of Russia.
And, if you understand russian - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVrygbUzazA - “BBC lies to us”.
Quoting one of comments: “This is not fake, THEY SHOW OSSETIAN PEOPLE AND TALK TO THEM IN RUSSIAN MEDIA. YET WESTERN MEDIA ONLY SHOWS WHAT GEORGIAN SIDE SAYS”.
Anyhow, you should not fully trust to any of mass media, because they are used to control your way of thinking. Think yourself. Politics sucks.
When publishing mass median news, your government want to spread, you have to understand, which emotions this could rise in people reading you. And not all of them, before obey their emotions, will think about if they are ready to kill and die for the needs of gang of fat asses.
Sorry for pathos, but it is really serious trend is having place in Osetia.

I’ve read a lot of reports and opinions this weekend. U.S. news both leftist’s and rightist’s, British BBC, Georgian, Osetian, Russian. I’ve read blogs of many people from U.S., Russia, Georgia and S.Osetia. As far as I can judge, BBC and Reuters are among the most neutral sources while Russian/Osetian and Georgian are drawn into the propaganda war.
