Evidence of Russian Cyberwarfare Against Georgia
An anonymous reader writes "In what seems to be a repeat of what happened in July, a few news sites have mentioned that there is evidence of a campaign against Georgia. For example, both the government's and the president's sites are inaccessible, among other official websites. For some analysis, the RBN Exploit blog demonstrates various traceroutes that have failed to several sites. They also claim that the RBN (Russian Business Network cyber-crime organisation) are behind the attacks, and that 'Many of Georgia's internet servers were under external control from late Thursday,' before the actual war began. Finally, according to this Twitter account of someone in Georgia (written in Russian), he claims that 'Russia has blocked access to Georgian websites from within Russia' (rough translation)."

PEOPLE! If you still can THINK by yourself - just try to do it now! Why are you watching ONLY "ONE-SIDED" information from CNN and others news channals??? Just look at chronology of this events!!! 1) GEORGIAN forces ATTACKED Tshinvaly first and DESTROYED this city!!! It was 07/08/08 - before russians could make anything!!! 2) Now there is MORE than 2000 citizens KILLED by georgians!!! 3) Why georgian tanks entered South osetia 07/08/08 and fired at russian peacemakers??? Because its a provocation and GENOCIDE of osetians!!! Just look at HISTORY BOOK or Enciclopedia! in South Osetia MORE than 2/3 of population are russians! Thats why Son of the Bitch SAAKASHVILLY so easy used HEAVY ARTILLERY to destroy Tshinvaly and several small towns... If you prefere to be BLIND - just eat all that shit of your official news. But BETTER ASK OSETIANS AND OTHER GEORGIAN`s NEIGHBOURS! WHY THEY ARE READY TO WAR AGAINST GEORGIA? Because GEORGIA IS FOUL AGRESSOR!!! They are licking any ass to join NATO - just to gain "a big brothers" alliance. But its THE WAY TO NOWHERE! All nations of Caucasus will fight arainst Georgia if it`ll not stop! DO NOT LET them DRAW your countries into this fucking georgian game!!! Georgia HAS NO chances to get any acceptable ending of this game. Because Georgia killed too many people, their neighbours. So they NEVER will have any warm relations with Georgia... What YOU will say if your nearest country destroy several towns on your territory and kill 2000 people (in one night)? And later, when your ally try to help you and resist agressor all massmedia begin to SCREAM about YOUR blame and your ally`s blame??? They STAND THINGS UPSIDE DOWN!!!! Fucking PURCHASED newsmakerk! I`m ashamed for you!!!
It would seem like Geogia did ramp up the hostilities specifically during the Olympic period, expecting support from the US after Georgia supported the US war in Iraq. From the Russian point of view, it was likely taken as the US Administration/republican neocons, prompting Georgia to launch the attack with verbal promises of US support,(the neocons are the ones most concerned with media) all to gauge the Russian Government reaction, that thousands of people die for neocon games, don't expect the GOP to care.
What is important to the neocons is, can it be used for republican political traction in the US elections and, can it be used to pump up US corporate war profits. The over the top reaction from Russia is all about killing off any more neocon political games for profit in what the Russian government deem to be their region of control. Georgia now just looks foolish, after having been screwed over by the neocons with empty promises of support.
