Israel backs Georgia in Caspian Oil Pipeline Battle with Russia
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report
August 8, 2008, 4:26 PM (GMT+02:00)
Georgian tanks and infantry, aided by Israeli military advisers,
captured the capital of breakaway South Ossetia, Tskhinvali, early
Friday, Aug. 8, bringing the Georgian-Russian conflict over the province
to a military climax.
Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin threatened a “military response.”
Former Soviet Georgia called up its military reserves after Russian
warplanes bombed its new positions in the renegade province.
In Moscow’s first response to the fall of Tskhinvali, president Dimitry
Medvedev ordered the Russian army to prepare for a national emergency
after calling the UN Security Council into emergency session early Friday.
Reinforcements were rushed to the Russian “peacekeeping force” present
in the region to support the separatists.
Georgian tanks entered the capital after heavy overnight heavy aerial
strikes, in which dozens of people were killed.
Lado Gurgenidze, Georgia's prime minister, said on Friday that Georgia
will continue its military operation in South Ossetia until a "durable
peace" is reached. "As soon as a durable peace takes hold we need to
move forward with dialogue and peaceful negotiations."
DEBKAfile’s geopolitical experts note that on the surface level, the
Russians are backing the separatists of S. Ossetia and neighboring
Abkhazia as payback for the strengthening of American influence in tiny
Georgia and its 4.5 million inhabitants. However, more immediately, the
conflict has been sparked by the race for control over the pipelines
carrying oil and gas out of the Caspian region.
The Russians may just bear with the pro-US Georgian president Mikhail
Saakashvili’s ambition to bring his country into NATO. But they draw a
heavy line against his plans and those of Western oil companies,
including Israeli firms, to route the oil routes from Azerbaijan and the
gas lines from Turkmenistan, which transit Georgia, through Turkey
instead of hooking them up to Russian pipelines.
Saakashvili need only back away from this plan for Moscow to ditch the
two provinces’ revolt against Tbilisi. As long as he sticks to his guns,
South Ossetia and Abkhazia will wage separatist wars.
DEBKAfile discloses Israel’s interest in the conflict from its exclusive
military sources:
Jerusalem owns a strong interest in Caspian oil and gas pipelines reach
the Turkish terminal port of Ceyhan, rather than the Russian network.
Intense negotiations are afoot between Israel Turkey, Georgia,
Turkmenistan and Azarbaijan for pipelines to reach Turkey and thence to
Israel’s oil terminal at Ashkelon and on to its Red Sea port of Eilat.
From there, supertankers can carry the gas and oil to the Far East
through the Indian Ocean.
Aware of Moscow’s sensitivity on the oil question, Israel offered Russia
a stake in the project but was rejected.
Last year, the Georgian president commissioned from private Israeli
security firms several hundred military advisers, estimated at up to
1,000, to train the Georgian armed forces in commando, air, sea, armored
and artillery combat tactics. They also offer instruction on military
intelligence and security for the central regime. Tbilisi also purchased
weapons, intelligence and electronic warfare systems from Israel.
These advisers were undoubtedly deeply involved in the Georgian army’s
preparations to conquer the South Ossetian capital Friday.
In recent weeks, Moscow has repeatedly demanded that Jerusalem halt its
military assistance to Georgia, finally threatening a crisis in
bilateral relations. Israel responded by saying that the only assistance
rendered Tbilisi was “defensive.”
This has not gone down well in the Kremlin. Therefore, as the military
crisis intensifies in South Ossetia, Moscow may be expected to punish
Israel for its intervention. |

The president of South Ossetia claims mercenaries took part in Georgia’s
offensive against the breakaway republic, according to Russia’s RIA news
agency. Eduard Kokoity says Ukrainians, people from the Baltics as well
as nationals from other countries were involved.
At 10 minutes, 30 seconds into this video, a South Ossetian woman claims
Georgian troops had American emblems.
As the corporate media in the United States covers volleyball at the
Olympics in China and pours endlessly over the marital infidelity of CFR
darling John Edwards, the media in Russia is reporting the war in South
Ossetia and Abkhazia.
Earlier today, RIA-Novosti’s Russia Today TV broadcast a report
detailing possible U.S. involvement in the conflict. Eduard Kokoity, the
president of South Ossetia told Russia Today Ukrainians and mercenaries
from the Baltics as well as nationals from other countries were involved
in the fighting, as “foreigners have been found among their bodies.”
Dmitry Medoev, the South Ossetian envoy to Russia, confirms this claim.
“In yesterday’s most recent tank attack, the advancing tanks were
supposedly crewed by Ukrainians. Two unidentified bodies found today are
said to be black, possibly they are Americans, but we can’t say for sure
yet.”
Russia’s Daily Online newspaper, Kommersant, also reported the presence
of foreign mercenaries:
Authorities in the unrecognized republic of South Ossetia claim
that dark-skinned mercenaries took part in the attack on Tskhinvali,
reports RIA Novosti, citing representative of the South Ossetian
president in Russia Dmitry Medoev. He said there were bodies of many
Georgian soldiers on the streets on Tskhinvali. “There were blacks among
the dead, who were probably either mercenaries or instructors in the
Georgian armed forces,” Medoev said.
South Ossetian President Eduard Kokoity had said earlier that
mercenaries were fighting with the Georgian forces. That information has
not been confirmed in Tbilisi.
Last month, the United States, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Ukraine
conducted Immediate Response 2008, a joint training exercise said to be
in “spirit of the NATO Partnership for Peace program,” according to
Blackanthem Military News. Immediate Response 2008 was held at the
Vaziani Military Base in Georgia.
In another report, a woman interviewed by Russia Today in Tsknivali,
South Ossetia, talked about the presence of Georgian troops with
American insignias. “There are lots of bodies over there, a lot of
people have been killed, mostly Ossetians, but also Georgians, they had
American emblems on their forearms and they were in black uniforms,” she
said.
Black uniforms are a trademark of Blackwater and DynCorp mercenaries
(see Chris Hedges, America’s Holy Warriors). DynCorp’s presence in
Eastern Europe is well documented, particularly in occupied Bosnia where
it engaged in sex-trafficking and prostitution.
In a Friday press conference, Chairman of Russia’s State Duma Security
Committee Vladimir Vasilyev said without U.S. aid, Tbilisi would have
been unable to start military operation in South Ossetia. “The further
the situation unfolds, the more the world will understand that Georgia
would never be able to do all this without America,” said Vasilyev. “In
essence, the Americans have prepared the force, which destroys
everything in South Ossetia, attacks civilians and hospitals.”
It is entirely feasible the U.S. has “prepared the force” with
mercenaries as well. |
