Who attacked who first? Georgia attacked SO. Russia responded by liberating SO and then continued into Georgia.

2008 South Ossetia war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2008 South Ossetia war began on August 7, 2008, and involves the country of Georgia, the Russian Federation and the breakaway republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. The war began after a ceasefire agreement between Georgia and South Ossetia broke down (each side accused the other of breaking the ceasefire), and Georgia sent a large military force into South Ossetia which reached the capital Tskhinvali.
Tell me how is Russia's invasion of Georgia different from America's invasion of Iraq during the first gulf war?
