    Well they are the largest country in the world.....So, yea=D you would think they would be rich,i guess...Imagine all of the tax money the countries leaders would get? You got rubels? (Russian Federation Money)
    Oh and the only reason why i called it the "Russian Federation" is because on the maps it says that because it is so big XD
    Anyways,yes,i agree that might come soon..

    I agree completely. One of the main reasons that the conflict has such poor coverage is biased presentation of foriegn media (including Russia, but notably US).
    The Western relationship with Russia still sees it as some sort of militant Communist superpower that hasn't changed since Stalins time, bullying a smaller country- reminiscent of Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. On this thread it's clear how opinions are made on this ignorant bias; "Georgia claims to have downed four Russian planes though, good for them,""Russia is extending its influence", "Russia to Nuke Poland" (and referencing The Sun is hardly reliable), the person above me blaming Russias quest for oil... seriously wtf - why is no one doing any proper research here?

    Rarely in this thread, can I see anyone criticising Georgia- ironic since they started it. I don't approve of any form of conflict, but casualties are really unavoidable. Georgia's humiliating defeat has come about of it's own actions.

    I think it's pointless that they were fighting over the Oil there,like comeon,it's just Oil and yes it's expensive but don't go to war over it.

    SERIOUSLY WTF. No one is fighting over oil- where the hell did you even get this idea from? There isn't any oil sourced in Georgia anyway. Do some real research before bringing in biased opinions.

    A war over Oil? I saw this coming.

    Yeah I bet you saw it coming miles off. Shame it has nothing to do with oil.

    Water is more expensive and I can see a war over water coming soon. This will probably lead to a massive outbreak and pollution problems

    Now are you a clever troll or just being stupid? The earth is refferred to as the 'blue planet' for a reason, typically because of the 70% water on the surface. Also it rains- that's when the little droplet things fall from the sky. LOLOLOLOL

    Besides Russia is a pretty rich country (I think) So they shouldn't need to go to war over it!

    1) Russia never started the war.
    2) They didn't join to get oil.

    You got me. This thread has gotten stupider from the last time I checked. There's no point in rebutting if people are going to be ignorant about the war.

    Please tell me that you were kidding; if you were, you should have said dihydrogen monoxide. It would be funnier.

    Indeed the USA does run into wars with its head stuck out that little bit too far, but let's not be changing the subject to the Iraq War now.

    Well you do realize that only 3% of the worlds water is usable, and only 1% is actually drinkable? Maybe you should do some research as well!

    All water could be usable and drinkable with sufficient treatment -____-
    Water is just another substance, after all.

    I love Russia, people don't get how politically right they always are.
    In the start, Georgia was trying to limit the amount of Russians or something in Georgia, thats why Russia started the bombing and war. Then in comes mr Goerge Big Fat A** Bush saying to create peace and Russia smacks him with the best comeback ever: "I don't listen to people who bomb Belgrade".

    (For those who don't know, Belgrade is the capital of Serbia which NATO forces bombed, and we won in the end anyway -.-)

    I'm always going to be on Russia's side because of what they did for Serbia. :)

    I swear this is the one of the only sensible comments on this page.

    That is obvious, but some people are too thick to realize this! So the sign lied to me?
    Click to expand...

    That's right... some people are clearly too thick - that sign lied fo' sho'.

    How is going to war over water even possible? Yeah, I can really see America invading Mexico to plunder their lakes lol.
    Regardless of amounts of freshwater on a surface, it's not going to run out. Unlike oil formation this can be done in a matter of hours under conditions with such a large amount of water present.
    The water cycle (that's when oceans evaporate, turn to big fluffy clouds and precipitate) provide a virtually constant supply of useable water. Once you use water it doesn't just disappear from existance. =\

    Or if you still think water is more expensive than oil, take 2 buckets to a gas station and ask them to fill them both up with water and petrol. Find out what's cheaper...and then have a long hard think.

    The USSR/Soviet Union stopped existing from 1991. Some news you watch.

    Wtf- that's not how it started at all. Research first, opinions later. Do it.

    Jaimes, I don't mean expensive in prices, I mean more needed. Water is the most needed thing in the planet, without Water we die....without oil we can't drive a car? Big deal....

    Evidently no-one here actually pays attention to the news, so alternatively make up BS vaguely surrounding the subject to form conversation.

    Though *Dark*Master, if you seriously reckon the next war is going to be about water, please please please please create a new thread about it. It would be hilarious.

    THEN WHY SAY IT'S MORE EXPENSIVE

    Indeed.
    Oh and it may be more needed, but oil is currently in greater demand (since we know we won't run out of water).



    Hey, point of curiosity here, anyone know what rifles the Russian soldiers are using for this? I'm guessing AK-74 or AK-107/8.

    Well,actualy,water is a big need in Australia. Our biggest river 'Murray Darling River' is starting to dry up and we actually need more water.Also other rivers and such are drying here aswell.

    No... it's still AK47... AK-74 was accepted for our army in 1991, but rearming is too slow... AK 74 - begginer of AK 100 series, I was very surprising, that АК101 complitable with M 16 bullets, i have no idea why) Also, AK47 is some difficult for use, so, if you need power of AK 47 and comfort, and some money, of cource))) AN 94 - your choice)

    See photo from South Ossetia conflict - there our soldier with AK47
