The headline from the New York Times today read "Georgia and Russia Nearing All-Out War". It's frightening, both in terms of human cost, and in terms of the political shift coming from Russia:
"The record is crystal clear," said a Western official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "Russia has launched a full-scale military operation, on air, land and sea. We have entered a totally new realm — politically, legally and diplomatically."
I urge you to take a look at these. They are the photos put together by The Times. It's a reminder why war should be avoided at all cost.
