Thread Name: BS: War in Georgia (2008)
Subject: RE: BS: War in Georgia
Perhaps it's ethnic cleansing of the South Ossetians that Georgia (and the US) has in mind.

As I said, There is a huge difference between raising the possibility of something and making an accusation. I'll explain how it works for those who don't understand English. "Perhaps" means that something is possible. An accusation would be someone saying someone did do something or is doing something. Raising the possibility that someone might be doing something is not an accusation. It is only speculating about the possibility.

This is why I haven't commented on Russia's accusations that Georgia has committed genocide, and I won't unless I see independent verification of it.
