The war between Russia and Georgia is over, but bombs are still threatening the citizens.

It will take de-mining experts many months to find and destroy unexploded munitions which both armies left behind.

The worst danger for farmers and playing children are cluster bombs, which when exploding are scattered over a vast area, obliterating everything in their path.

Al Jazeera's Matthew Collin reports from a village close to South Ossetia.

  • The morons who ...

    The morons who manufacture these bullshit weapons should be taken out and executed by the UN or their own people. Cluster bombs should be dropped on the gated neighborhoods where the shitheads who produce this nonsensical murderous crap live. Then their use will stop immediately.

  • in fact, they ...

    in fact, they trained the georgians as early as July 27.

    in august those same soldiers fought in the war. they've been there all along and may have led georgia to believe that they'd come to aid georgia if Russia got involoved. Inspiring georgia to invade.

  • in fact, the ...

    in fact, the Georgians DID fire rockets at S. Ossetia, at Tskhinvali, It was their first action in the war.

    the Russians most likely used them on roadways when the georgian army began their retreat. There is video of a Russian Su-25 using rocket pods on a strafe in georgia. although these are rather accurate, it is likely that cluster weaponry was also used. However, the Russians' primary targets were roadways and military installations. UNLIKE the georgian initial assault.

    Don't worry about him, check his channel he's a bigoted moron. He probably thinks that the Russians are marching on Atlanta with General Sherman to burn it again. Hopefully he'll lock himself up in his bunker with his white sheets and rebel flag and never come out again.
