    What makes you think they aren't? Bush and the neo-cons are getting the full blame for Russia sending a gang of murdering, looting rapists into Georgia.

    Didn't you hear? It's always Bush's fault.

    Anti-war sentiment good.....location of picket wrong....should be outside the USA embassy...They had 900 'military advisers' in Georgia before the attack by the Georgians on South Ossetia on 7th/8th August...with that amount of 'advisers' from the USA dont tell me that they had'nt got the nod from high up in the Bush administration...the word is that it was approved by Cheney and his neo con palls, but they disowned it when the Georgia army turned and fled in terror at some serious military resistance from the Russians

    I was right, it didn't take long for someone to blame the Americans.

    So what White House insider is feeding you this information? Let me guess some idiot on indymedia said it so it must be true.

    what sucking planet do you live on..."word is it was approved by cheney"!!!! absolut billox!

    the "serious military resistance" happened to be right on the border, coincidence? maybe they were on manouvers like they were in prague in '68 and hungary in '56!!!

    Of course the US haven't been arming Georgia for years and encouraging them to take an aggressive stance towards Russia?
