Update/ August 11, 2008.

-There is no sign of any ceasefire in the Russian-Georgian war.

-President George Bush has again condemned Russia’s “disproportionate” use of force and called for mediation. The U.S. has warned Russia must end its onslaught on Georgia or risk 'serious consequences' in terms of its relationship with America and the world.

-Reports that the Russian jets pulverized town of Gori, leaving hundreds dead.

-Russia is exploiting Washington's inhibition to advance its goals by force. In the face of President George W. Bush’s demand for an immediate withdrawal of Russian troops and support for international mediation, Moscow poured an additional 10,000 men and armor into Georgia.

-This war is also a warning to Ukraine, the Caucasus and Central Asia against joining up with the United States and the NATO bloc in areas which Moscow deems part of its strategic sphere of influence.

-"The war in South Ossetia could be the most dangerous flashpoint since the Cuban crisis"
