That's how Putin got elected- richmomz, on 08/13/2008, -4/+2Putin was elected through blogspam? That's news to me.
- thedudeoforkut, on 08/13/2008, -6/+4The Bloggers must be proud of their KGB master. And to think Bush looked into his eyes and saw his soul! LOL.
- richmomz, on 08/13/2008, -4/+7Don't be too sure; there are many people in the U.S. that are seeing through the mass media B.S. as well. (check the comments in the other Georgia conflict digg stories) Georgia started this conflict when it bombarded a densely populated area in S. Ossetia, killing an estimated 2,000 people (including Russian civilians and soldiers). Russia responded to put an end to the genocide, took Georgia out to the woodshed, and then stopped their advance once Georgian soldiers had been kicked out of the separatist regions. Not much different from the Bosnia/Kosovo conflict, only with much fewer casualties.
So yes Virginia this was in fact a Peacekeeping action.- SvetlanaG, on 08/14/2008, -0/+4Thank you, it's incredibly good to see that some of the American people also understand what the situation actually is, no matter how bad the situation is presented in the US.
- jmpeagle, on 08/14/2008, -0/+2when was the last voluntary self-selecting poll that accurately reflected the views of the people being targeted? I like how people attack the validity of online polls as if they are actually supposed to have some validity.
