Now It's Just the Georgian War

Catagory: general

As suspected would happen, the Russians have left South Ossetia and have taken Gori, a city in Central Georgia. Looks like the Ruskies are really not going to stop until the Saakashvili administration is running for its collective life, a puppet government is installed, and they control the pipelines.

Lovely!

Russian forces occupy Georgian city of Gori

It won't be much longer now (a few days?) until Russia will have complete control of the country. From the Boston Globe:

Georgia's president said his country had been sliced in half with the capture of a critical highway crossroads near the central city of Gori, and Russian warplanes launched new air raids across the country.

And...

An Associated Press reporter saw Russian troops in control of government buildings in this town just miles from the frontier and Russian troops were reported in nearby Senaki.
