What are people's opinions on this. Are Russia being too arrogant or is Georgia at fault.

looks more complicated than first appears georgians were a minority within the old ussr when the ussr collapsed georgia became independent but there are minorities in georgia (like the ossetians) who got worried when georgia started talking about 'georgia for georgians' so they looked for support over the border to russia -- where theres other ossetians the just solution is probably to take a bit out of both russia and georgia so there can be a single ossetian state georgia actually attacked the ossetian breakaway republic first tho...

I was sitting there rolling my eyes thinking here comes World War 3. I don't think it could become another world war 3, because not as many countrys would be involved, but if you google or wiki the cold war i think there could be a resemblance of the cold war due to all countrys involved having nuclear technology.

thats true^^^^ but i doubt there would be a war because the most powerful countrys(the commonwealth countrys) are technically allied with russia
