Is there a new cold war developing between the U.S./NATO & Russia?
What's Behind the Recent War Crisis in Georgia & South Ossetia ?
In early August the western powers and news media launched an anti-Russia campaign following events in Georgia and South Ossetia. With great concern, people around the world watched the recent military confrontation in Georgia, which had been a republic in the former Soviet Union.
Come to a public forum to discuss:
• What are the issues behind the recent war crisis in Georgia?
• What role did the U.S. play?
• What is the role of oil pipelines in the region?
• How is the crisis related to the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?
• Is NATO expansion and the deployment of a U.S. "anti-missile" system in Poland leading to a new confrontation between Russia and the West?
• Could Russia be the target of new U.S. war moves?
