Georgia Signs Cease-Fire as Rice Looks OnPosted on Aug 15, 2008
After spending several hours in a diplomatic huddle behind closed doors with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili on Friday signed a cease-fire agreement brokered by French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Saakashvili, however, made it clear during a follow-up news conference that “this is not a done deal yet.”

Well Jaded Prole, it isn’t just Bush that is the
hypocrite, it’s the Georgian leader as well.
He bemoans this “aggression” against his nation,
so he recalls the 2,000 Georgian troops from
Iraq, where they were part of the U.S. aggression
there.
It sort of reminds me of the French Resistance
Report thisfighters of WWII who would later serve in Algeria
to try to crush the Algerian liberation movement.

14/08/08 “Pravda”—- So you have the colossal audacity, Mr. Bush, to warn Russia to pull back? As the wanton, perverse war criminal under whose watch the world saw the crime known as shock and awe committed, Id say you were well out of your mind to suggest that Russia should pull back.
Whats a little shock and awe among inferior people we want to rob and destroy, eh?
What do human beings need an infrastructure for?
Why do they need clean water? Why do they need electricity?
Whats a little torture?
Whats a little regime change? Dont recall when that was a goal of yours?
Whats a little deviant, perverted sexual experimentation and humiliation?
Whats a few secret detention camps?
Whats wrong with destroying an environment for 4 billion years and generations after generations of people? After all, theyre just rag heads, arent they Mr. Bush?
Perhaps when Russia even begins to match your tremendous feats of glory can you speak about pulling back you fool of the worst kind.
You can also tell your number two man to shut up. Cheney said “Russian aggression must not go unanswered, and that its continuation would have serious consequences for its relations with the United States.”
So how do you plan to answer this erroneously termed aggression? He says this will worsen relations with the United States? Buddy, relations with the United States could hardly be any worse than they are now.
The United States shows no respect for Russia. The United States shows no respect for any other country weaker than
itself, much less a rival as you perceive Russia to be. How about your NATO? Today the west, tomorrow the world, eh?
America uber alles!
How about your missile shield breathing down the neck of the Russian nation? There to protect Europe from Iran? The most totally absurd thing that only a moron would believe.
How about your deliberate breaking of your agreements regarding Serbian Kosovo? UN Resolution 1244 which your country agreed to, is the ink dry you deliberately went against it and recognized Kosovo in total disregard and in violation of that agreement.
And you expect your words to be heeded or even listened to? You are joking! It is said when Caligula went mad he heard laughing.
Do you hear people laughing at you Mr. Bush?
Listening to you, your Vice President, Condi Rice and US and western officials complain about “regime change,” “invasion,” “bloodshed” and “suffering civilians” (in the light of their crimes across the world) have become nothing but laughable at best
and highly infuriating and enraging at worst.
You are an idiot!
We seem to recall that when your Israeli friends were absolutely devastating the people of Lebanon, wantonly killing civilians, destroying their countrys infrastructure and destroying their environment also .the flapping jaw of your representative, Condoleezza Rice and your entire administration were saying no ceasefire, no nothing, just keep on going, keep on committing acts of state terrorism on innocent people, keep on committing your war crimes, you have them covered.
Well, Mr. Bush, this is it. Moscow better get this one right: No limited engagement nonsense. Moscow has the moral and legal right to carry out full scale military operations within Ossetia, Abkhazia and Georgia to ensure the safety of its citizens, to ensure the protection of Abkhazians and Ossetians and to finally destroy NATO plans for the Caucasus region.
No sane, informed, honest, rational person can blame Russia for reacting to a genocide against their own citizens in Georgia.
But then you are NONE of those things.
You, Mr. Bush, belong in an international criminal court to be judged for your crimes against peace and your crimes against humanity.

Condi, the Russian expert, needs a refresher in Russian 101. Five more months and it’s back to CONOCO.
