According to FNC (unless I misheard) there have been 1400+ deaths so far. Does that sound possible?

I’m not an expert here; but this doesn’t look good.

I believe we must provide support and aid to Russia and make it very clear that Russia will suffer serioius losses

I'm sure you mean "we must aid and support GEORGIA".

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT our Georgian allies against the Russian hordes. Looks how their crammed tank columns are lumbering through the streets. This just calls for carpet bombing.

Could this be the beginning of putting the USSR back together?

1400 deaths would not surprise me given the lethality of modern weapon systems.

The next 24 hours will determine Georgia’s fate.

Ooops...you are exactl right.. Georgia is whom we must aid in this. I’ll ask the mods to correct it.

This is actually the Second Russian-Georgian War I think.

And no, we do not have a dog in this fight. Serbia / Kosovo is exactly the same as Georgia / South Ossetia.

Now FNC has some major hottie on who is saying too much rough sex in the sac can put you out of commission for a while.

Never mind what’s going on between Russia and Georgia. Sheesh.

Sure you didn’t mean, “provide support and aid to Georgia ?”

Oh, it’s possible. The first article I saw quoted a Georgian saying she saw her village shelled. If that’s happening in more than one place - and I’m sure it is - the dead could number well over 1400 already. This is all very early, and uncertain, but it is possible.

The restructuring of the old USSR has been underway since Putin rose to leadership. It has sped up since he stepped from the main position.

He wants the old Evil Empire back to where it was.

Putin is evil...KGB-evil.
