Hello, Gerry. Thank you for your question. No, I will not.
I mourn about any (150 as far as I know) victims of Georgian civilians who had died because of their president, who uses his own people as cover of his military and political interests.

But still, not detonated Israel cluster bombs all over the streets of Tskhinvali that Russian sapers are working on right now does not allow me to understand neither Georgian president, no Georgians who supported him in this.

You are mostly welcome to discuss it on Aviapedia forum.
