RUSSIAN GAS SABOTAGE?

BBC:
Georgia's president has accused Moscow of serious acts of "sabotage" after gas blasts on Russian pipelines cut off supplies to Georgia and Armenia.Mikhail Saakashvili told the BBC the near simultaneous attacks close to Georgia's border were pre-planned actions orchestrated by Russia.An electricity transmission line was also destroyed as Georgia experiences extremely cold weather. Russian prosecutors have described the attacks as deliberate criminal acts. Relations between the Georgia and Russia have been tense since Mr Saakashvili was swept to power by the so-called "Rose Revolution" in 2003, pledging to lead his nation on a pro-Western course.
I wouldn't put anyhting passed Putin - he's a former KGB agent capable of anything.
