poul: “there is no moral equivalence between a nation brutally suppressing minorities within its borders”
The “brutally suppressed minority” was only technically within Georgian borders given that it was occupied by Russian “peacekeepers” who barred Georgian government presence in Ossetia. Also, the “brutally suppressed minority” habitually shelled with non-JDAM-equipped explosive munitions the territory and people of the Georgian “aggressors.”
That was a civil revolt that the Georgians were morally obligated to put a stop to. Giving the Russians – who fomented the entire thing in the first place – their dishonest excuse to beat the snot out of Georgia.
Russia started it. Your arguments, such as they are, do not fit the facts.
