All good questions, with answers to be provided later rather than sooner.

THEY ARE in Direct Talks! I was thinking the same thing. I'll bet there's alot of direct talks going on over there right now on many levels, but it's probably not for sensitive big ears.

We have plans drawn up and ready to invade Canada - why would Russia be any different?

That’s true .... but from a cold start we couldn’t have heavy armor deep inside Canada by tommorrow morning. These units just don’t move from the motor pool and the barracks like that. Russia was fully mobilized and ready to move before Georgia acted. How were they so prepared to have force mobilized and in the field awaiting the move order so they could be in combat within 12 or so hours?
It’s one thing to have a plan ... it’s another thing to have the units ready to move at a moments notice. And nations just don;t keep their forces on hair trigger for grins.

Georgia had said there were going to move by September. Russia did a massive war game in the region recently, and so did Georgia. Both sides were ready to move.
Oh, BTW, the US had a lot of observers in the Georgian war games.
Interesting times.

Could be.
But I expect the globalists to squash this soonish. I don’t think it’s part of their over all script for the near horizon.
I could be wrong.
OF COURSE!

yeah, that was from the speach / interview I posted from CNN. He basically denies invading S. Ossetia at all. Interesting speech, to say the least.
