According to my maps, Gori is in the middle of the country.

“In South Ossetia itself, Georgian troops have retreated from the capital, Tskhinvali, because of heavy Russian shelling.
Russian troops are now in control of the city.”
I’m afraid the Georgians are going to be advised to give it up. Unfortunately, that will most likely result in Russia whittling away parts of Georgia until it is completely absorbed by Russia.

Send in agents provocateur to stir up unrest and revolt. When the Georgians rightfully try to restore order in their own country claim you are protecting your relatives from “ethnic cleansing” and attack. With this weak justification out of the way and counting on the cowardice of the West, simply conquer the entire country.
Putin is evil. A little smarter than Hitler. But a murdering tyrant nonetheless. Russia needs a slave empire since it can’t even feed itself. Welcome to Iron Curtain Phase II.
Bush looked into Putin’s soul, eh?

"TBILISI, Aug 9 (Reuters) - Russian fighter jets targeted the the major Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) oil pipeline which carries oil to the West from Asia but missed, Georgia's Economic Development Minister Ekaterina Sharashidze said on Saturday."
Don't know if this is propaganda or fact. It's from Reuters

Hmmm...perhaps not.

They absolutely plan to invade Georgia proper. Once Russian tanks and rifles are pointed at everyones’ heads, there will be peace. Peacekeepers.

I’ve never been a big apocolypse person, but what is that theory on Magog and such? Does anyone here know?
