War in the Caucasus

  • Russian armored vehicles enter a tunnel, moving toward the border with Russia's North Ossetia, 70 km (43 miles) north of Tskhinvali, the Georgian breakaway province of South Ossetia's capital, on Sunday, Aug. 24, 2008. Russia pulled the bulk of its troops and tanks from Georgia on Friday after a brief but intense war but built up its forces in and around two separatist regions and left other positions deeper in the former Soviet republic.
  • Smoke rises from a fire in the Georgian village of Kekhvi, some 15 km (9 miles) north of Tskhinvali, in Georgia's breakway province of South Ossetia on Saturday, Aug. 23, 2008. Many ethnic Georgian villages in South Ossetia and Georgia have been looted and burned down after Russian troops entered Georgia.
  • Fire fighters extinguish a fire on a train carrying oil products after it hit a mine about 10 km (6 miles) east of Georgia's strategic central city of Gori on Sunday, Aug. 24, 2008. Interior Ministry spokesman Shota Utiashvili said the blast hit near the end of the train and one third of its 30 tanker cars were on fire.

• Robert Fisk: Yes, Saddam was brutal, but are ‘we’ any better?

All kinds of horrors flop on to my Beirut doormat. There's The Independent's mobile phone bill, a slew of blood-soaked local Lebanese newspapers — “Saleh Aridi's blood consolidates (Druze) reconciliation”, was among the goriest of the past few days — and then there are files from the dark memory lane through which all Middle East history has to pass.

• Steven Beacom: We must still build team around Healy

One point from six. That’s Northern Ireland’s tally in the World Cup qualifying campaign so far. Not too healthy, is it?

• Ed Curran: The travesty of Toulouse

Patrick Bamford was just another face in the crowd packed into Belfast's Ravenhill rugby ground on Saturday for the European Heineken Cup match. He was much more than that 21 months ago at another game in the south-west France city of Toulouse.

• Pol O Muiri: Glenn’s tale that should touch us all

They say that the victors write the history. However, I doubt that I will ever read anything by the DUP's born again Ulster-Scotch poets or Sinn Féin's radical scribes and Pharisees that will ever match writer Glenn Patterson's Once Upon A Hill: Love in Troubled Times (Bloomsbury).

• Hamish McRae: So will anything shift the economic gloom?

It is a classic financial crash. Another week of mayhem in the markets, another week of despair among bankers, another week of rising concern for the rest of us. The world's monetary powers sought to reassert their authority last week by cutting interest rates, while individual governments, in particular our own one, continued to unwrap national rescue packages. Their aim was to restore confidence – and they failed.

laurence_white

• Laurence White: Will we have any cash left after world market crash?

The financial turmoil currently gripping the world is of such a magnitude that it is over-shadowing what until a couple of months ago was the biggest story in town — the race for the White House. Now Barack Obama and John McCain find themselves a side-show.

• Eamonn MCann: Was it fair to jail Shahra Marsh but let greedy bankers go free?

Nobody is immune from this banking crisis. Not Shahra Marsh. Not Mother Teresa.
