Turkish Journalists Attacked (by Russians?)


Tensions between Russia and Georgia


As reported by VOA News:

Georgian military forces have fought their way into the capital of the breakaway region of South Ossetia.

Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili said Friday he had ordered an all-out offensive to regain control of the breakaway area.

Georgian tanks and troops, backed by artillery, have moved into the region and surrounded the capital Tskhinvali, where they are battling Russian-backed separatists for control of the city’s center. South Ossetian officials say 15 people were killed in the fighting.

I have to ask: Why has The White House, NATO and the EU not stepped in to help the people of South Ossetian? All they want is liberty and freedom, right?
