::::::::: It is unprudent to claim that the fact who started the war,is "irrelevent".Any law collage student knows that from the standpoint of the international legal system,it is of crucial importance to determine who was the agressor.In our case,there is no doubt that georgian government violated the peace agreement and brutally attacked S.Ossetia in early August of 2008,hoping Russia will turn a blindeye on the assasination of its peace-keepers and its citizens as well as on the violation of  the previous agreements.The sheer brutality of georgian attack accounted for much damage of civil buildings in Tskhinvali as well as for hundreds of casualties among the ossetian population.

- In this sense,we have right to blame georgian side for ANY damage and ANY casualties that have been the consequence of the georgian-started war.
