So far you've giving tons of unsupportive claims at why Russia is in the right. Could you supply any actual defense for your claims? If not, you lose.

On Georgia's side:
1. Historically Georgia has always had the basic borders it does now.
2. Ossetians instigated the flare up which Georgia responded.
3. Russians had "military games" going on conveniently on the border just before its Ossetian separatists began their attacks.
4. Russia has been pissed about all of the US and NATO actions around the old soviet bloc states and Kosovo. It has stated there would be repercussions.
5. All signs point to this being a long standing plan by Russia to take part of Georgian land.
6. Russia said they only wanted Georgians out of S.Ossetia yet they kept pushing deeper into Georgia days after Georgia accepted cease fire and stopped fighting back.
7. Russia put troops and started another conflict in a different territory that was perfectly calm prior to this whole ordeal and has forcifully redrawn its borders as well.
8. Russia has bombed a lot of unnecessary targets deep in Georgia.


I'm sorry, but I just don't see how you could side with Russia or claim at this point in time in light of all the evidence that people supporting Georgia are merely using old cold war ideas. Russia is clearly in the wrong.
