I have been surfing Russian news websites for last week and I was amazed
how funny some headlines were about Georgia. Accusation sometimes went
well beyond imagination. Most of them seemed to be copied from SciFi channel or
horror movies.
Russian news reporters completely lost it. They've proven that Russia's
propaganda machine has become not only weaker but also hilarious.
These are some of the Headlines I have collected:
Cruel Intentions - *Russia
arrested Georgian top spy*. Video was broadcasted on the national TV channel of Russia - ( http://www.lenta.ru/articles/2008/08/19/spies/
)
Russian Psychiatrists concluded - Georgian President is in hysteria from
what he has done (About Saakashvili Chewing his tie ) ( http://www.rb.ru/topstory/economics/2008/08/18/101830.html
)
Georgia *puts additional
military forces in the zone of conflict.* They reject to leave - ( http://www.rb.ru/news/politics/2008/08/19/143514.html
) - In the same article we read how Georgian soldiers make diversions against Russian peacekeepers.
Saakashvili tried to commit a suicide - A Gun in his Hand - ( http://www.smi.ru/08/08/11/908790035.html)

War is Osetia - Completely gone Nuts - In the story we read how fake eye
witnesses tell the stories about the brutality of Georgian soldiers. ( http://www.gazeta.ru/politics/2008/08/09_a_2806163.shtml)

Here are few of these factious facts that deserve horror movie awards:

1. Georgians occupied
   Osetia and threw explosives in the callers where people have been hiding.
2. Georgians cut
   the head off Osetian army leader.
3. Russian army
   is helpless. Georgian snipers are controlling the situation.
4. Premier was
   told that in Znauri district Georgians locked few girls in the house and
   burned them alive. " I saw how Georgians gathered young Osetian girls like
   if they were cows and they locked them in the house and burned them alive".
   - I bet that the smell of barbeques could be felt all over south Osetia.
5. " We saw how
   Tank ran over the old woman with two babies"
6. We saw how Georgians
   cut the little baby into pieces. (Yes sure. We have to feed Russian Army somehow)
   

The last one is especially impressive.
And the list goes on and on broadcasting and spreading rubbish, nonsense
and propaganda.

There's no wander that many Russians feel way too negative about
Georgians these days.
But how can somebody be so stupid to belive this stories. Only Russians can me so naïve!

As timeonline says: "Government
and much of Russia's media -
has reverted to the old habits of Soviet years, in which a sinister American
hand was held to lie behind every conflict, especially those embarrassing to Moscow. Modern Russia may be
plugged into the internet and the global marketplace but in the battle for
world opinion the Kremlin is replaying the old black-and-white movie"

So go on
Russians. No one believes your stories
but you make the whole world laugh!
