Video shows Georgian troops shooting at civilians


www.russiatoday.com
RT has obtained a video which shows Georgian troops firing on civilian buildings in the South Ossetian capital of Tskhinval.
(visit the link for the full news article)

The mobile phone footage was apparently recorded by a Georgian soldier as he operated a machine gun. His cry of 'Yoo hoo!' as he fired on the building reminded some viewers of 'a child playing a video game' - but they were real bullets and real human targets.

To me this could be Russian troops firing at Georgian buildings and recording it for propaganda purposes. While it is as inflammatory as the Michael Moore shots of the US soldiers more or less doing the same thing, at least in his he turns the camera around and shows you the men actually doing it. This is weak.

Also, anyone who thinks that russian troops would behave differently is fooling themselves. This is how it is on all sides.

Agreed. It seems everyone is screaming hypocrisy at each other not realizing that the problem is that this is happening in the first place.

Wow, so you are baiting us to find out the depths of our hatred towards the ruskies? Not a chance Americans dont play that game, we see people as individuals.

It is always possible for the great propaganda machine to play during time of unrest, you know that right?

It matters to me personally NOT who was behind the guns, I feel sorry for the poor people stuck in the middle, the civilians.
