If this report is true, Russian backed South Ossetian rebel started the conflict

And if true would only back the view of Russian Imperialism that the
Left does not wish to admit to... It is a long fact filled article
which some on this board will not like... Unless they address the
"facts", it is clear from this article Russia started this war....
Russia and their allies violated the treaty months and days before
Georgia responded...

In short Mark, your lack of fact betray your propaganda...

>>> Virtually everyone is wrong. Georgia didn't start it on August 7, nor on any other date. The South Ossetian militia started it on August 6 when its fighters fired on Georgian peacekeepers and Georgian villages with weapons banned by the agreement hammered out between the two sides in 1994. At the same time, the Russian military sent its invasion force bearing down on Georgia from the north side of the Caucasus Mountains on the Russian side of the border through the Roki tunnel and into Georgia. This happened before Saakashvili sent additional troops to South Ossetia and allegedly started the war.
