In spite of all the talk for the last few day that Russia had agreed to pull out of Georgia, Russia plans to build 18 new check points inside of the country--with the minority of them being in South Ossetia--while Russia's Deputy Chief of General Staff Anatoly Nogovitsyn says "we're not moving." "Peacekeeping," you know.
So much for the terms of the cease-fire.
I used to (half) jokingly say that the world was much safer during the Cold War when the terrorist factions were much more restrained. Now I'm going, "What the hell?"
