It's kind of hard for Georgia not to retaliate when South Ossetia rebels were the ones to fire first.
I don't believe it's "coincidence" that South Ossetia broke the cease fire, and attacked Georgia, provoking huge retaliation, thus in turn, getting Russia to start bombing the crap out of Georgia.

Perhaps if you have known that Szaakaszwili have been saying about re-unititing Georgia with republics that don't want to be part of Georgia for some time you would have other view on the matter. It is also not certain if Ossetian actually provked the attack or not.
After all, how could Georgia be shooting down Russian bombers if they clearly weren't deep into Georgian airspace?
Of course Russia should stay quiet and let Georgian artillery destroy South Ossetia citiees.
