Default The Great Georgian Victory!!!

Some recent photos from Reuters

These guys were so close...

and now they are leaving driven away by a brave partizan army
(almost Tito style or shall I say Albania)


Get it! - you pesky Russians


Get it! Get it! Tra-la-la! Tra-la-la (Hm... should I say Suliko:hmm:



In the meantime, Georgian men are reoccupying military base in Sanaki.

First off, sure...


Oppa! They left something for us to play with...


Time to strip off all that civic stuff,
put on some cotton from the pile and we are warriors again!!!



Not yet still.
They left 20 peacekeepers near Poti.
Those Russians digged their trenches and foxholes.


But brave Georgians will always defeat the coward enemy hiding from them in foxholes.
They employed the Wunderwaffe - Georgian style



Russkies are watching, watching, watching...

I don't think they're being "driven away by a brave partisan army".
It look more like they're leaving on their own and people crowded around to yell at them.

I think you did not get sarcasm of Bruno's post. He is kind of parodying and grotesking Georgian/Western propaganda and some always-negative anti-Russian postings on this forum which are independent on what the situation is.

Some of Bruno's posts have the right mixture of good humor and sarcasm making them quite enjoyable.

Year, it's not that black-and-white picture.

Look how 'terrorized' Georgian family is sharing
lavash (traditional Georgian bread)
with 'occupants'

Or is it the other way around - Russians to Georgians?
But does it really matter - which way?

Georgian girls....
Well, they all look pretty similar, rather short, dark hair and rather big noses.
And they're all named Nino.
The only exception to that are some with russian names and some are named Nana, which is Nino in a georgian mountain dialect
:rotfl:
Georgia is a bit like Molvania in some ways...
Btw, guys are usually named David (Dato) or Khakha, but some have russian names like their president.
You would think the russians have a name problem with their roundabout dozen common names but the georgians only have two or three per sex.

Maybe, with that "passive resistance" stuff, Sakashvili hopes that some poor Ivan Ivanovich Ivanov might get nervous and shoot some poor Nino Khamikhadze in front of CNN cameras, thereby scoring a propaganda victory.

Yep, their patience has limits.
They don't like to be spit on and pelted with sh***t.
They prefer bullets.

Hey, Poti men - quit hiding behind women!

Yeah, that's all you can.

Then quit leaving locals with their messed up lives.
And then talk, talk, talk...
