There is no event, it does not exist in nature until the press talks about it. And exactly what the press reported will happen. Because there are usually few living witnesses. The rest of the world learns about everything from journalists. As they will tell you, that’s how it was, even if everything was completely different. In war, a feather is equated to a bayonet not only figuratively. In modern history, we saw this during the first Iraq War, which was “carried out” by CNN.

The military adventure of Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili in South Ossetia became possible as a result of the long -term mediocre and hypocritical policy of the Russian leadership in the Caucasus as a whole and in relation to Georgia in particular. Politics, which is not based on the principles of international law, does not serve the true interests of the Russian people and, to any extent, cannot serve the case of resolution of national-territorial conflicts in this region.

At the request of the Daily Journal, the official representative of the National Security Council of Georgia Levan Tarkhnishvili comments on the situation that developed on August 11 in Georgia: - What is your assessment of the current situation in Georgia?

The editors of the online newspaper Kasparov.Ru began broadcasting on LiveJournal. Current news and articles on the site can be viewed at http://community.livejournal.com/kasparov_ru . This decision is due to the fact that the website www.kasparov.ru has been subjected to DDos attacks for two days now. Other websites of the United Front and those who disagree are subject to the same attacks: www.rufront.ru and http://www.namarsh.ru .

In addition to reports from South Ossetia, where Georgian troops appear to be abandoning their positions, Russian television channels are full of indignant comments. They are outraged by the reaction of Western politicians and the media to the new Caucasian war. They ignore the obvious fact that it was not Russia, but Saakashvili who violated all agreements and subjected Tskhinvali to barbaric shelling for 24 hours.

On the night of Thursday to Friday, having previously demolished the same part of the city as possible, the Georgian troops took possession of Tskhinvali. Giving an order to start the war, Mikhail Saakashvili probably believed that Russia would not intervene.

Simultaneously with the bombing on Georgian territory, Russian troops are strengthening their forces in the zone of the Georgian-Abkhaz conflict. Back on August 10, the governor of Megrelia-Upper Svaneti, Zaza Gorozia, agreed to the advance of Russian peacekeepers beyond the borders of Abkhazia, to the Zugdidi region.
