It was counterintuitive for the world media to say that it was Georgia who fired the first shots. Fred Weir, a journalist from the Christian Science Monitor presents an international assessment of last August's events.
Wow, Fred Weir actually said, "Russia does have a case." I had to pick myself up off the floor when I first heard him. The tide of public opinion is turning if he says that!

Too much to expect the New York Times or UK Telegraph to do the same, of course, but hey, it is a start.
