ONE year ago a brief but potentially dangerous war erupted between Georgia and Russia. The shooting lasted little more than one day but the argument of who shot first is still continuing. A Swiss diplomat is conducting an investigation into the matter and will report in due course; her task will not be easy. Did Georgian forces open fire on its separated province of South Ossetia, provoking a Russian response? Or did Russia deliberately provoke Georgia's action in order to find a reason to re-establish its presence in Georgia?
