HT, it you or ST that posted the observation from the russian reporter that stated that there were like less then a hundred or so russian and ossetian's killed? Most of those were combantants.... kind of takes the charges of genocide or cleaning up the neighborhood and debases them.
The old regime at least had control of it's media (read pravda) and could keep their story straight. These new guys have never had to deal with a "free press" before, video from cell phones, or camcorders. This is what is biting them in the azz right now. Blatent lies, and there is reasonable proof to refute their nonsense. 30 years ago a whole nother ball game..... Some on this site who have become the marc antony's of the russian regime, will soon learn that a point can be made, without useless bloodshed.
