Georgia: A Second Front for Putin by Paul Craig Roberts!

President Putin faces the possibility of a second Ukraine, a second war front that could result from Washington,D.C.s success in staging a coup d etat in Georgia with a color revolution.

Riots ongoing since the "Russian party" defeated the "Western party" by 54% to 34% have convinced the Prime Minister of Georgia that the West is in the process of launching a color revolution to overthrow, as was done in Ukraine, the democratically elected government.

President Putin is silent and consequently could find himself fighting on two fronts. Then the West will open a third front. This is what President Putin can expect from consistently presenting himself as a non-interventionist unless Russia is attacked. Russia, certainly the most powerful military entity on earth, carries no weight in Western councils.

Georgia, the country, became a part of Russia in early 1800. In 1917 Georgia became one of the provinces of the Soviet Union. The country became independent in 1991 when the collapse of the Soviet Union gave Washington,D.C. the opportunity to break up the Soviet Union. Georgia, Ukraine, Belarus, and the Central Asian provinces were turned into independent countries.

In 2003 Washington,D.C. engineered the "Rose Revolution" in Georgia, which put a pro-Western government in office. In 2008 Washington,D.C. sent its United States trained and equipped Georgian army into South Ossetia, a disputed province that did not agree to leave Russia with Georgia. As Russian peacekeepers were killed in the Georgian invasion of South Ossetia, Putin sent in the Russian Army which quickly destroyed the American trained Georgian Army and conquered Georgia in five days, which is what should have happened in Ukraine.

Failing to realize that Washington,D.C. would continue to try to turn Georgia into a front against Russia, President Putin turned Georgia loose and took his army home. President Putin, a true believer in non-interference even when it is at Russias expense, left Georgia to be subverted by Washington,D.C.. Putin did not require that Georgia shut down Washington,D.C.s NGOs operating in the country or that Georgia subordinate itself in any way to Russia.

Consequently, Washington,D.C. got a French-born woman installed as president of Georgia, and Washington,D.C.s propaganda and NGOs have convinced 34% of Georgians to prefer alignment with the West than with Russia. It is part of Washington,D.C.s intent to surround Russia with missile bases.

Washington,D.C.s EU puppet has threatened to impose sanctions on the democratically elected Georgian government for failure to void the election and put in office a pro-West government. The EUs foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas took the side of the 34%, whom she declared to be the "Georgian people," not the 54% who won the election. She promised that the EU would punish those who won and that sanctions against Georgia was one of the options for dealing with the Georgian peoples refusal to comply with EU rule.

Last Saturday the United States State Department spokesman announced Washington,D.C.s suspension of its strategic partnership with Georgia, thus setting up Georgia for overthrow.

The Georgian President supports Washington,D.C.s NGO protesters and said the parliamentary elections are illegitimate.

There is no indication that the Russian government realizes that the overthrow of the pro-Russian government means trouble for Russia.

Fyodor Lukyanov, chairman of the Presidium of the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy, writes nonsensically about the attempt at "color revolution" as if it is merely an internal affair for Georgia. "please see here:" Instead of coming to Georgias support, Putin and Lavrov continue to cause massive misinformation in Russia by speaking of "our Western partners."
