What’s with Russian propaganda? There was a 26-year old pregnant woman killed in Gori by Russian bombardment recently. Do you expect victims of shelling, with people dying around them to say anything else about the aggressor, regardless of the underlying cause? To claim that Georgians started this is to ignore a week-long Russian-sponsored escalation that preceeded Georgian invasion. Russian methods of waging war, as shown in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and “freeing of hostages” in Beslan, inform a strong opinion that more South Ossetians died under Russian bombs (trying to clear the city of Georgians) than from the Georgian shelling.
