It's obvious that the media got played, but I'm disappointed that political "leaders" didn't step in to set them straight.
Quoted: Most papers dutifully reported that a Georgian attack in the breakaway province of South Ossetia, where most people want to join Russia, started the conflict. But casual readers might have struggled to understand that.

Same destruction, less lasting pollution. Now spot the non sequitir:
"The defense ministry stresses this military invention does not contradict a single international treaty. Russia is not unleashing a new arms race."

Bottoms up.
Quoted: As the Russian Civil War became a reality, the Bolshevik hierarchy saw the need to replace the provisional Red Guards with a permanent force. The Council of People's Commissars set up the Red Army by decree on January 28, 1918, basing it initially on the Red Guards. The official Red Army Day of February 23, 1918 marked the day of the first mass draft of the Red Army in Petrograd and Moscow, and of the first combat action against the occupying Imperial German Army.

I used to play this card game with my grandparents - I think I learned it when I was 5. Lately I've been teaching it to my friends, and they've gotten a kick out of it. This Wikipedia article reminded me of some rules I'd forgotten.
