Now that I think about it, it doesn’t have to be the left outside the Russian embassy protesting. Why is there no one?

It’ a good point. Maybe it's time that centrists and conservatives organize protests to show support for Georgia.

To be honest, I don’t feel like I know enough about the situation to pick a side. First I hear Russian has attacked a small neighboring country. I think “Okay, Russia bad.” Then I hear that Georgia was bombing a province (South Ossetia?) that was trying to return to Russia. I think “Wait. Georgia bad.” Then I hear that South Ossetia was provoking Georgia. I think “South Ossetia bad.” Then I wonder if the South Ossetians really want to be part of Russia again or if a well-funded minority (funded by Russia, of course) is trying to force this issue. If so, I’m back to “Russia bad.” And I know already I don’t like Putin... but I just feel like I don’t know the whole story. I’m not even sure that which I just listed above is right.
