Now that we have had some time to look back and figure out what happened with this situation.

Doubts emerge on President Saakashvili's account of events. This article says that Saakashvili claims that his forces moved into South Ossetia to preempt a Russian invasion, I had not read that claim before and do not find it credible in the least.

A look at how the Russian military worked in the invasion, very interesting. It says, mostly, that the Russians are still using the early 1980s Soviet tech and tactics with very little improvement on the warfighting side but that their use propaganda and technical mastery of spin has improved considerably. Guess the FSB, successors of the KGB, have not been starved for funds.
