Georgia 'under attack' as Russian tanks roll in

http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/08/08/georgia.ossetia/index.html

"Georgia's president said Friday that his country is under attack by Russian tanks and warplanes, and he accused Russia of targeting civilians as tensions over the breakaway Georgian region of South Ossetia appeared to boil over into full-blown conflict.

Georgia, located on the Black Sea coast between Russia and Turkey, has been split by Russian-backed separatist movements in South Ossetia and another region, Abkhazia."

Makes me wonder what would happen if Russia backed a separatist movement in Atlanta or Macon...
