My fellow Americans seem to forget that the United States illegally overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii, threw the Queen in jail, annexed the land, and gave the Native Hawaiians the same treatment that was done with the Native American tribes. Today, they are complaining about Vladimir Putin, and thought every region in the ex-Soviet countries was going to be okay being disconnected from the Russian mainland. He doesn't suppress the Ukrainian or Georgian language. His country isn't the one with the most military bases around the world. He prefers a multi-polar world unlike the uniparty that exists in the United States of America.

It all started with Putin’s 2007 Munich speech against the New World Order…

“However one might embellish this term, at the end of the day it refers to one type of situation, namely one centre of authority, one centre of force, one centre of decision‐​making. It is a world in which there is one master, one sovereign.”

“Today we are witnessing an almost uncontained hyper use of force — military force — in international relations, force that is plunging the world into an abyss of permanent conflicts. And of course, this is extremely dangerous. It results in the fact that no one feels safe. I want to emphasise this — no one feels safe!”

“NATO has put its frontline forces on our borders, although as yet, we do not react to these actions at all. NATO expansion, he stated, represents a serious provocation that reduces the level of mutual trust. And we have the right to ask: against whom is this expansion intended? And what happened to the assurances our western partners made after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact?”

“With respect to democracy and NATO expansion. NATO is not a universal organisation, as opposed to the UN. It is first and foremost a military and political alliance, military and political!”

“Moreover, his concerns and objections went beyond the mere expansion of NATO’s membership. His larger sus “why is it necessary to put military infrastructure on our borders during this expansion?”

Georgian Jews have been living in South Ossetia for around two thousand years. The 1886 population census indicates that they constituted a majority in Tskhinvali, living peacefully alongside their Georgian, Armenian, Ossetian and Russian neighbors. Most Jews fled the city for Israel and Georgia proper during the First Ossetian War in 1991. As of 2018, only one Jew remained in Tskhinvali, a single elderly woman called Rebecca Jinjikhashvili, known to locals as 'Rybka', her childhood name.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) on Tuesday ruled that Russia violated the European Charter of Human Rights by supporting border enforcement between Georgia and the breakaway regions Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Russia invaded Georgia in 2008 in support of pro-Moscow separatists. After the conflict, Moscow recognized the regions as independent states.  Since then, Russia's military has been building barbed wire fences and guard towers between the enclaves and the rest of Georgia, with the aim of creating a "state border." Russia prevents freedom of movement in Georgia The ECHR calls the process "borderisation," and defined it as "blocking people from crossing the administrative boundary lines freely between Georgian-controlled territory and the Russian-backed breakaway Georgian regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia."
