The Washington Post: Russia tried to blow up U.S. Embassy in Georgia <http://imgs2.kavkazcenter.com/eng/content/2011/06/04/14445_1.jpg> The Washington Post published an article about ongoing attempts by Russia to destabilize Georgia and wrong policies of the administration of Obama, who, according to the paper, encourages Russian violence against Georgia. The newspaper points out <http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/post/has-russia-reset-its-be havior/2011/03/29/AGHuKbHH_blog.html> that the US explicitly condones Russian in this political game, despite the fact that Russia really threatens the US interests. Moreover, as the newspaper writes, Russia was planning to blow up the US Embassy in Georgia in 2010, but the terrorist attack was uncovered in time. Today, as indicated by the newspaper, Russia is not only going to curtail terrorist activity against Georgia, but on the contrary - new plans, which should, according to Moscow, topple the power of Georgian president Saakashvili, are being developed. Against this background, the Obama administration is still building a rainbow of hope for a "reset", while Russia, as it seems, is not interested in any "reset", but waits for a right moment to stage another attack against Georgia. In this regard, a number of Western experts believe that after the so-called "olympic games" in the Russian-occupied Muslim city of Sochi in 2014, Russia could launch another attack on Georgia with the intention to finally solve the "Georgian question". In turn, The Washington Post recalled that Georgia has detained two suspects, who prepared the blast on orders from Russia. Police arrested a man and a woman with explosives in the western part of the country. "They confessed that they were ordered by Russian officers to set off explosions on the Georgian territory," a spokesman of Georgian police, Shota Utiashvili, told AFP. In recent months, Georgian police have detained a series of suspects for setting off bombs or planning attacks on behalf of the Russian military intelligence. Three men were accused of trying to blow up government buildings in Georgia's second-largest city of Kutaisi in March, while several more suspects were detained on suspicion of staging blasts last year near strategic targets, including the US embassy in Tbilisi. Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) as well as other lawmakers and foreign policy experts have complained that the administration's "reset" policy toward Russia consists largely of acceding to Russian demands with no corresponding progress in Russian human rights or conduct toward its neighbors. In the case of Georgia (whose requests for defensive weapons have been rebuffed by the United States) the imbalance has a particularly perverse result. Russia continues to occupy Georgia, promote violence and disregard admonitions about its human rights abuses at home. Meanwhile, Georgia just sent an additional 625 troops to supplement U.S. Marines fighting in Helmand province in Afghanistan, making Georgia the largest non-NATO troop contributor to the mission in Afghanistan. It certainly seems that our Democratic ally is getting the worse end of the deal here, the senators complain. (The disregard of the interests of American Democratic allies in pursuit of better relations with thugocracies is not an infrequent feature of the bloody Obama's regime) Department of Monitoring Kavkaz Center Publication time: 4 June 2011, 19:47 Permanent address at KAVKAZCENTER.COM: http://www.kavkazcenter.com/eng/content/2011/06/04/14445.shtml C Copyright 2001-2011 KavkazCenter.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
