Sorry but you have your facts wrong.
Georgia invaded Ossetia and Russia intervened to protect her people.
I shudder to see how you would behave in this scenario:
Venezuela invades Puerto rico threatening to take over. Should the US just stand by and let that happen? I think not. Russia has every right to intervene to protect her interests and people.
This is a little game being played out by team Georgia under Sasshkavili and his coach is George Soros and other dangerous international interests...not anything good I might add. I just hope the Georgian people rise up and take back their country.

>Almost all of them have Russian passports.
That’s because Russia is trying to annex the province and gave them the passports. Georgia was too weak to go against it.
It would be like the US giving US passports to everyone living in Baja California.

When will we give support to Georgia? Why aren’t we telling the Russians to cease aggression or ELSE?

How “Christian” is Putin?
Actually lots more than 90% of the political jabbering class in our own country.

I just hope the Georgian people rise up and take back their country.If there is anything left of Georgia after Russia had it's way with them.
How can you ignore the evils Russia is internationally committing? They are the force behind all of the US enemies. Iran, Syria, Hamas, Hezbullah, Venezuela... you name it. Now our Christian brothers in Georgia are being attacked by the faux-religious, crypto-Communist Putin and Co. and you ask us to support Russia!? I have my facts straight.

Has the Iraq War realy helped the US? Half the country wants it done yesterday. Until a Dem President “starts” a war, we should be extremely cautious.

Had the Democrats+media not abused the war to undermine the US, the victory over Saddam would have put us into an unchallenged strategic position in 2003/2004. The world was in awe. Thanks to traitors a though fight became harder and protracted.

Channeling Iosef Vissarionovich again?
Who? Putin or the Sakashvilli?
Iosef Vissarionovich Dugashvilli (Yosef Stalin), may appropriated Russian Nationalism and Slavophilia, but he was a Georgian.

Yeah, no kidding this looks bads. If Russia can invade Georgia, who’s next? Louisiana? Tennessee?
To: Natchez Hawk
Groegia is not committing terrorism. Goeriga is also a soverign nation, one which has been an ally of the US.
Take you neocommie propaganda elsewhere.
PS. The Russians were too nice to the Chechens.

Despite all the high-powered weapons in use now, there is still something very intimidating about a convoy of tanks of the move.

So you support foreign powers supporting brekaway states?
Are you a Serb blinded by Slavophilic revanchism or an Albanian?

This is not good, and probably only the beginning of a domino effect.
