Whats the Problem between Russia and Georgia?
I side with Georgia in this conflict, but I would hardly call them peaceful. What happened was that Georgia was trying to retake the separatist province of South Ossetia. While Georgia was doing this, Russia then invaded South Ossetia and started fighting the Georgians (aiding the rebels), claiming that Georgia was killing Russians that were in South Ossetia. All this comes at a time when Georgia is trying to join NATO(something Russia is against) and Russia is getting increasingly aggressive towards the West (doing things like flying bomber missions near the US and UK, claiming the North Pole, and claiming it has built an ICBM that will defeat the US/NATO missile defense system in Europe). I hate to sound like a cynic, but people are hypocrites by nature. That is just how we are. Where there is a big guy who still isn’t as big as he’d like, he is going to pick on the nearest little guy, maybe try and rile up the really big guys while he’s at it.
