Tbilisi-based LJ user shupaka (Diana Petriashvili) has been getting lots of political spam on her ICQ account and a Russian social networking site she's a member of. Here's the most common sample, in English: “Your channels, newspapers and the Internet-sites lie, each word is a lie. Georgia acts as instructied by Bush ⦠it is politics! Do not believe, what you hear ⦠The picture you see on your channels is true, but the comments to it are opposite. Russia is trying to help us ⦠Georgians are shooting at us ⦠Our brothers and sisters are there under ruins, in basements, in woods ⦠If you want to know the truth about the war come to our sites of central TV-channels. www.1tv.ru or www.vesti.ru Thank You.” View original post.
