Pravda “Russia didnt beat the Georgian Army it defeated the US army”

The USA acknowledged that Russia had virtually defeated the US, but not the Georgian army in South Ossetia. US instructors have spent four years training the Georgian army for an attack against Russian citizens. The US administration refused to help Saakashvili, because the true goal of the new game in the Caucasus is absolutely different.

Experts of Stratfor, the so-called Shadow CIA, stated that the Russian army had not only preserved its battling capacity but also proved to the whole world that was it capable of defeating an armed enemy, trained by US instructors.


A report from Stratfor particularly mentions that the operation in South Ossetia has exercised three things. First off, Russia has proved to have the army capable of conducting successful operations, in which many Western observers doubted before. Secondly, the Russians have showed that they can defeat the forces trained by US advisors. Finally, Russia has shown that the USA and NATO do not find themselves in the situation when they can interfere into a conflict from the military point of view.


At the same time, the experts consider it to be a military demonstration of Russia to former republics of the Soviet Union, including Ukraine, the entire Caucasus and Central Asia. In addition, they see a hidden warning to Poland and the Czech Republic against the background of a possible deployment of elements of the US missile defense system in those countries. However, the experts exclude an opportunity for Moscow to organize an intervention against some of the above-mentioned countries.


Stratfor’s statement means that the fight is over for Georgia and that the US administration is not going to cross the red line in its relations with Russia. Saakashvili’s hopes for NATO to become involved in a conflict with Russia went up in smoke.


The USA is pursuing absolutely different goals, and the creation of the Great Georgia is surely not on its list. The Republicans organized the provocation to portray Russia as a monster on the globe on the threshold of the November elections. This plays into the hands of John McCain, who openly says that “Russia’s imperial ambition” needs to be curbed.


This way or other, the USA has used the small country of Georgia as a toy.

Everybody knows Правда (Pravda) for what it is.

It's a Communist rag.

Pravda means "truth" in English.

The TRUTH will be in ACTIONS, not WORDS.

Our "ally" Georgia has had over 2,000 combat troops in Iraq, assisting their "ally" the United States in that cause.

Now we can watch with great national pride while the U.S. dispatches combat troops to Georgia to assist them in THEIR cause.

Meanwhile, some 130 U.S. military personnel serving as trainers to national forces in Georgia will remain in the war-torn country, Whitman said. He added that all U.S. trainers there are safe and accounted for, and that presently there are no plans to remove them from Georgia.

If McCain gets elected, the whiners that say "If he only had children serving, he would not jump into the fight as quickly" will have to come up with something new. Jack, 21, attends the United States Naval Academy and Jimmy, 19, is a marine who was stationed in Iraq.

The key words above, are "combat troops".

130 instructors do NOT equal 2,000 combat troops.

When the rubber meets the road we shall see which nations put their asses on the line for their allies....and which nations do not.

well this 2000 troops is kind of hard blow for russian 1,2 million active and 2.4 million reserve troops

Gerorge Bush is not going to send any troops against "Putie Boy". He has ignored all the saber rattling Putin has been doing for the last eight years. Putin sees how weak Bush has become. More chickens coming home to roost for the Bush boys. This country needs some LEADERSHIP and VISION before it is too late.

Well believe me, i know from not just by learning from history but also by living next to them - russians ONLY respect u if u beat them hard, if u try to be friendly whit them on times of crises then this is sing of weakness and they will use it against you as soon as they can (in real life usually by beating u up on 10 to 1 fight )

I thought this would be an appropiate quote for Russia and Georgia at the moment


"Unless a person is capable of making mistakes then he is not capable of thinking. The mistake does not matter. What does matter is the attachment of arrogance to a mistake on the basis that no mistake could ever have been made. A person gains a great deal from a mistake and even more from an admitted mistake. He gains a new way of looking at things. "
