Georgian President runs for cover

This is how intense the situation is.




Granted Georgia is a small, small country compared to Russia. But imagine if you were living in Memphis, Tennessee and your country is under attack and you turn on the television. On that tube you see President George Bush guarded by 50 heavily trained and armed guards.

Some foreign planes fly over head of the white house and George Bush scrambles for his motorcade to take him to the airport and hop on Air Force One. You hear screaming and shouting and automatic fire.

This is what it has to be like for the Georgians. Earlier, not on my blog, I made a joke that the Russians were after our peaches when this thing first broke out. (yes a very poor joke) But I pray for each Georgian. Not only for their lives but for their way of life.

You can call the Americans hypocritical for invading Iraq and setting up a Democracy, like they've done in Afghanistan, Germany, whatever. But that's completely different from what the Russians want to accomplish. Georgians will be assimilated back into the Russian populace and they wont have the freedom to elect like Iraq, Afghanistan, and those countries like them have. They will be met with death, hunger. They will become poorer and scared of their invaders.

Things in Iraq haven't gone the way they should have. War is not pretty. It never is, but the Russians will have no remorse and will rule with an iron hammer and sickle.
