I will ask details about the treaty from Karakhan's wife, Marina Semyonova, next time I visit Moscow :) --Ghirla 12:39, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure she will reveal many secrets concerning the forceful Sovietization of Georgia. :)--Kober 13:04, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

No, she will reveal many secrets concerning the forceful Georgization of Russia at the time when a certain "wonderful Georgian" (actually, a few of them) ruled the sixth part of the inhabited world. --Ghirla 15:08, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Forceful Georgization of Russia?? Heh, I like your sense your humor. That "wonderful Georgian" (©Khrushchev) actually considered himself "Russian" or sometimes "Russified Georgian" while Lenin referred to him as Great Russian Chauvinist. Try to check some easily verifiable sources other than Soviet "history" textbooks and I promise you will find many interesting things you’ve never heard of.

Hehehe that was good one LOOOL :) ok, Alas the comical, I reviewed your references actually and they are properly used. Great Job ones again Kober. You should also use David Langs, A History of Modern Georgia. Thanks Kober, keep up with your great contributions. Ldingley 15:36, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. I actually used Lang's work as a reference. The 1921 Soviet invasion also occupies several pages in this book and I'll use this info for the upcoming Soviet-Georgian War article. Btw, I've also found a Russian translation of the records of the 1950s US Congress hearings on the Soviet Occupation of Georgia. I've never heard of this document before.--Kober 15:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Kober, sorry I missed Lang’s references. The US senate document existed a long time and I actually used it for my thesis in 1995 at York University. Ldingley 16:01, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Really? Did those hearings lead to any decision? As far as I know the US never officially recognized the Sovietization of Georgia as an occupation. Thanks, --Kober 16:17, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
