What would you do if Canada would send some "Peace Tropps" to an US Region?
Both Sides are playing and have different interests, lots of grey shades

Are you kidding me? International law? South Ossetia was and always has been Russian. Just because the Georgians grabbed it due to anti-Russian feelings with the fall of the Soviet Union doesn't mean it's theirs. Hell, the Ossetians are helping the Russian troops fight against the Georgian's. You want to talk about International law, let's talk about the fact that the Ossetians want to be under Russian control, and in that case, the truth comes out; Russia is currently liberating it's own territory.
There are no gray shades. Just the bs anti-Russian propaganda the news is constantly projecting.

No, it is not debatable. You can't argue logic and hard facts. Russia had peacekeepers, they were attacked, they responded justifiably. It goes beyond that too. In the last 16 years, thousands of Russians have been killed, dozens of villages have been razed, and Russia has been provoked time and time again. But of course, if people knew that, then the Russians wouldn't seem so bad, would they?
