just a reminder we live in a truly dangerous world. The Russian Federation and Georgia are fighting over a disputed region on the border of the two countries. There were small scale exchanges and it escalated from there.
Georgia is a staunchly pro-western nation and Bush has rightfully condemed Russian conduct in this (rightfully so) Make no mistake about Mr. Putin, you can take the man out of the KGB, but you cannot take the KGB thug enforcer out of the man. I feel very sorry for the people of the Republic of Georgia who are caught in the middle of this mess. I wish and pray for continued safety for your friends and hopefully they can all make it ok...

I'm glad they are safe.
We cannot know the whole story of whom invade whom first over there, but rest assured both countries feel they are in the right. It is interesting that it occurred while both Putin and Bush were attending the non-political Olympics.
