And its looks like the South Ossetia's wanted their freedom from Georgia and were backed by the Russians against the Georgians. It is more complicated than that but there are many groups in the world which use terrorism to fight for their independence from larger powers. |
I agree somewhat, but there's a big difference in fighting for independence and fighting for your freedom.
In the Middle East there's fighting going on which has little to do with individual freedom.
This is why you really can't compare the American Revolution to almost any seemingly similar conflict, unless it's individual freedom that being fought for. Breaking away from Russia has many aspects similar to our rejection of British Rule.
