When the Russian reaches the middle of the Caucasus and controls the Eastern Caspian shore, linking up with Iran, WE SURE AS HECK have a dog in this fight. We were wrong and should have stayed out of the Balkans, which was an Euro-Russian issue. But we can’t betray our Georgian ally who has troops in Iraq.
When will we give support to Georgia? Why aren’t we telling the Russians to cease aggression or ELSE?
You make a good point about the Balkans. The Bear will absorb the Hog, yes. This will take some time. If the dolts on that Hill don’t make energy INCLUDING DRILLING a top priority we are going to pay a very, very big price in lives in a few short years.
