The updates on the Wikipedia entry on the 2008 South Ossetia War suggests, via Georgian news sources, that the Roki Tunnel (one of the key land routes into the valley that leads to Tskhinvali) has been destroyed. The Russians, obviously, deny this, but if it were to be severed, this would be deeply significant. The Wiki entries, based upon Russian news sources, are indicating that elements of at least one airborne division have been airlifted into Tskhinvali (likely by helicopter, as there is no airfield in Tskhinvali according to Google Earth), with another airborne division moving to follow. Light troops cannot holdout forever without armor, but it would suggest that upwards of three divisions (the 58th Army has one) are in the area or are in motion to the region.

Whether they are Democrat or Republican, politicians have now become a permanent class in the capital, existing along with a giant bureaucracy, operating the government for their own sake. Unless that is changed, they will simply continue to increasing until they bankrupt the country.
"Fun read and a great first effort. The characters have distinct personalities, the action is gripping and there's a sense of realism without becoming overly technical. It's a story that you think may have actually happened in the real world. On the downside, the start is a little stilted and the author doesn't hit his pace until about 30 pages in but this is a quibble. Make it that far and you'll be in for a treat. ." -- by Jim (Virginia)
