But 60 years from now it doesn't matter. The Soviets knew that they attacked themselves back then. And, it would have been possible that someone thought it was the US in Finland attacking the Soviet Union to make the Soviets look bad and mean. This time, someone else attacked them and the Georgian leaders didn't say "It wasn't us". But it's hard to find out if some backroom deal was made. In this case, what matters is if a 3rd party government willingly started a skirmish to further it's political agenda. Or it could have just as easily been Russian troops dressed up like Georgians, so Russia could reclaim the Georgia nation.
