2 hours, 46 minutes ago WASHINGTON (AFP) - Republican White House contender John McCain said Tuesday he would support Georgia's bid to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) if he is elected president in November. "I would move forward at the right time with the application for membership in NATO by Georgia," McCain told Fox News television. "As you know, through the NATO membership, that if a member nation is attacked, it is viewed as an attack on all," said the Arizona senator, alluding to Russia's military aggression on Georgia. "We don't have, I think, right now, the ability to intervene in any way except in a humanitarian, economic ...

The Regnum news agency is reporting that Georgian troops burned down a 10th century Orthodox church while terrified civilians perished inside. The agency quotes eyewitness accounts of the atrocity after all-out fighting in Khetagurovo, a small village near the republic’s capital Tskhinvali. Almost all of those fighting to defend the village were killed, but the report says the fate of others, mostly women and the elderly, turned out to be even more horrible. Eyewitnesses report that Georgian tanks literally ran people down and that soldiers took almost all the women to another location. Their fate is still unknown. Meanwhile, those who didn’t manage to escape found their ...

NATO has hailed Russia's decision to halt its military operation in South Ossetia as good news. But Jaap de Hoop Scheffer says Georgia's actions in South Ossetia will not affect its chances of joining the military alliance. However, the U.S. has blocked an emergency NATO-Russia Council meeting on the situation in South Ossetia. Russia's Foreign Ministry says by doing it Washington is justifying what Moscow calls ‘Georgia's criminal action’. Andrey Nesterenko, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman said: “The main problem, I believe, is lack of will to understand the real situation in South Ossetia which is the result of the aggressive actions from Tbilisi, no ...

South Ossetia's envoy to Russia was quoted that "in yesterday's most recent tank attack, the advancing tanks were supposedly crewed by ...

ERIE, Pa., Aug 11 (Reuters) - U.S. presidential candidate John McCain, flashing his foreign policy credentials while rival Barack Obama is on vacation, warned Russia on Monday of severe, long-term consequences from its conflict with Georgia. The Republican senator from Arizona, who has made international issues the centerpiece of his campaign for the Nov. 4 election, offered a lengthy discourse on the crisis in the Caucasus for reporters and cameras. He said Russia appeared intent on toppling Georgia's pro-Western government rather than returning to the status quo in South Ossetia, which Tbilisi is trying to keep from breaking away. McCain called on U.S. Secretary of State ...

The War in Georgia Is a War for the WestBy MIKHEIL SAAKASHVILI President of Georgia 11/08/08 "WSJ" -- - As I write, Russia is waging war on my country. On Friday, hundreds of Russian tanks crossed into Georgian territory, and Russian air force jets bombed Georgian airports, bases, ports and public markets. Many are dead, many more wounded. This invasion, which echoes Afghanistan in 1979 and the Prague Spring of 1968, threatens to undermine the stability of the international security system. Why this war? This is the question my people are asking. This war is not of Georgia's making, nor is it Georgia's choice. The Kremlin designed this war. Earlier this year, Russia ...

Russia Georgia War Washington Risks Nuclear War by MiscalculationBy F William Engdahl 11/08/08 "Market Oracle" --- - The dramatic military attack by the military of the Republic of Georgia on South Ossetia in the last days has brought the world one major step closer to the ultimate horror of the Cold War era—a thermonuclear war between Russia and the United States—by miscalculation. What is playing out in the Caucasus is being reported in US media in an alarmingly misleading light, making Moscow appear the lone aggressor. The question is whether George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are encouraging the unstable Georgian President, Mikhail Saakashvili in order to force the ...

US presidential runoff John McCain said that Russia should not interfere in the conflict in South Ossetia. The pro-Georgian propaganda in the US media testifies to the same opinion. It brings up the idea that the Georgian aggression against the unrecognized republic of South Ossetia has been coordinated with the US administration. Nevertheless, all arguments of US politicians and experts (Pravda.ru interviewed some of them) do not withstand any criticism.

President Bush was still in Beijing, having a great time. Between watching the swimming matches and doing his own mountain bike trek, the president gave an interview to NBC's Bob Costas, discussing his "constructive engagement" with China (over Sudan, Iran and religious freedom) and Russia (over its pounding of the independent country of Georgia). Bush said he had talked to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin, telling them the violence was "unacceptable" and seeking a cease-fire. He called it ironic that the Russian attacks occurred during a sporting event meant to "promote peace and harmony," and he said he hoped the ...

On Sunday I talked with Zbigniew Brzezinski, the elder statesman who was national security advisor to President Jimmy Carter, about the Russian invasion of Georgia. He long tangled with Soviet power. Now he takes on Putin: Nathan Gardels: What is the world to make of Russia's invasion of Georgia? Zbigniew Brzezinski: Fundamentally at stake is what kind of role Russia will play in the new international system. Unfortunately, Putin is putting Russia on a course that is ominously similar to Stalin's and Hitler's in the late 1930s. Swedish foreign minister Carl Bildt has correctly drawn an analogy between Putin's "justification" for dismembering Georgia -- because ...

Yet another paratrooper wounded in Afghanistan has been threatened by a Muslim visitor to the British hospital where he is recovering. This is not the first such case — seriously wounded soldiers have complained that they are worried about their safety after being left on wards that are open to the public at Selly Oak Hospital, Birmingham. On one occasion a member of the Parachute Regiment, still dressed in his combat uniform after being evacuated from Afghanistan, was accosted by a Muslim over the British involvement in the country. “You have been killing my Muslim brothers in Afghanistan,” the man said during a tirade. Because the soldier was badly injured and could not ...

Minnesota Whites' Reaction to Second Hmong Baseball Bat Assault in Three Days

Just last evening I discussed the savage attack by Hmong youths on a woman jogging in a Twin Cities park. And now it's happened again, as reported the Pioneer Press. As an account of the second baseball bat attack, the story doesn't rise to the level of journalistic incompetence, since it doesn't describe the attack. It is nevertheless an amazing story, a must-read portrait of contemporary America. What stands out is the comments by the people who were attending the vigil/march that was in progress when the second attack occurred. Here are these upper Midwest liberals, they're besieged by violence in their neighborhoods and parks, they can't go outside in safety, this ...

A blockbuster new book from investigative journalist Ron Suskind adds another revelation to the growing canon demonstrating the lengths to which President Bush and members of his administration lied, misled and deceived the American people to pursue its invasion of Iraq. Bush allegedly ordered the CIA to forge a handwritten letter from the head of Iraq's intelligence service to Saddam Hussein that purported to link the Iraqi dictator to the ringleader of the hijackers who toppled the Twin Towers on 9/11, according to news accounts of Suskind's new book, The Way of the World: A Story of Truth and Hope in an Age of Extremism. Such use of an intelligence service to influence domestic ...
