Did I get it wrong?

Natela Popkhadze's long piece failed to explain with regard to Georgian claim on South Ossetia where North Ossetia is. She is not alone. All the world free press, free of shame that is, never mentioned that South Something always comes with North Something. For South Something has more in common with Something than with Georgia for example. That North Ossetia is separated from South Ossetia by the Main Caucasian Ridge is a geographical given. Both slopes of that place are populated by the same Ossetian people, speaking the same language and pricticing different religions. Right nation for self-determination ends at the moment the self-determined nation determined to opress its own minorities. Russia served very timely notice to Ukraine, in which Russian speaking majority is forced to speak Ukrainian and force to learn in school extreemely biased and simply delusional version of "Ukrainian" history. Next on the line goes Latvia and Estonia, two countries oppressing their Russian population, constituting 50% of total population. Governments of these two countries had chosen unwisely last time, siding with German Fuhrer. They are choosing unwisely the second time siding with American Fuhrer. Czechs, when allowing missle pads on their soil should also remember that 30% of his tanks, artillery and ammo Hitler got from Czechoslovakia but Red Army treated them not that harsh as they deserved. This time it might be different. For Poles I do not have any advise for they are uneducatable and left to their own wisdom desintegrated more than 200 years ago.
