there is no reason to an autopcratic dicator as a democratic libertarian. He lied and cheated the West and his own people, he secretly gave orders to launch a war of attack, he then hoped to drag the West and NATO into the quagmire he had created, he committed a war crime when ordering the nightly missile bombardement of civilian blocks that left scores dead in their beds, the local populations in the disputed zones have been suffering from massive Georgian discrimination and violent opression, sometimes even progroms, since historic times and until today, and Saakashvili has this very honest very democratic habit to send in the riot police when the democratic opposition demonstrates against him in the streets and accuses him of treachery against the Georgian people. Saakashvili may appear like a clown, but he is a dangerous, irrational, unscrupelous lying clown with plenty of blood on his hands already.

I can't believe that some people in the West still fall for this gangster. Even the EU - incompetent in it's foreign policies, usually - treats him like a pariah these days, on basis of it's findings. Not many western politicians have wanted to meet him in the past 18 months. He is avoided, and one should know by know why this is so.

either from you or me,we know what this man stands and get the whole thing is not so strange that it is making headlines.
