JBean:

`No Paol, the tactical target was the bridge; not civilians. Were the Georgians supposed to sit there and let 150 Russian tanks come across?’

It seems you assume that Russian tanks were rolling into Georgia when shelling of the Tskhinvali started, i.e., at early morning August 8. Can you cite any reference for that?
