'Washington's State Department has called for calm in "reaching a compromise solution acceptable to all and in the interest of Georgia." '

Thats a great way to stall while they find Georgia on the map for Bush and explain to him its history.

CNN had portrayed this as a bloodless revolution -- but will it actually bring about a more equitable democracy??

I guess time will tell -- unless the current government decides to use military brute force to begin the bloodshed.

The people wanted Shevarnadze gone, and it's nice to see bloodshed was averted.

I agree with Serb.

Georgia is an example of the dark side of the fall of the SU that the capitalists don't want you to see.

Never liked the old bastard. What happened is in particular a result of his petty pet-state politics. It is sad though that he was ousted through a coup d'etat. It's even more sad that hardcore nationalists may come to power in this situation.

From time to time. Seeing scenes from Georgia reminded me of Belgrade a few years ago. Not to mention several bloodless revolutions after the fall of the Wall.

And it happends as often as Democracy that was brought by military intervention.
