I taunt them right back.
Let me know if they return...and I will taunt them a second time.

The head of Georgia's national security council said Wednesday Russia has sent 50 tanks into the central Georgian city of Gori, despite an agreed-upon ceasefire calling on both sides to retreat to positions they held before fighting began six days ago.
Security council head Alexander Lomaia said that the tanks entered Gori about 9:45 a.m. local time, but there was no independent confirmation of his claim.

What you said, a joint pact between Iran and Russia with Russian millitary surrounding Iranian nuclear facilities, who dare attack them then. So, if Iran nuclear sites was to be taken out, now would be the time.
I am praying for you and your fellow countrymen.
Dear God, the Ossetia militia are kidnapping the children of these Georgian families.
I do, and my son would gladly whip some Russian a&&.
That is a hippie comment IMO. “Do you want your children to die for this cause”. Well heck no! I don’t want my children to die at all. But if my grown son wants to fight for what is right, I will be proud of him.
God bless the 82nd! And you and your my FRiend.
I wish I could go. Wish I could go with some anti-tank TOWs right now.
Or from Russias point of view, now would be the time to rush in and protect Iran from attack. Just conjecture. It is what I would do if I was Putin (thankfully I am not). Imagine the winter Olympics with Russia holding the entire Caucasus region and Iran their protectorate.

And I'm sure our sons and our military could if they happen to be allowed to use live ammo. But the politics of conflict makes me not very trusting of some of the situations that are going on. For example, my idea of going house to house in Iraq involves 155's not Infantry.
Yes, lots of “Whoopsies, got in the way of a bullet. Sorry bout that”.
I taunt them right back.
Let me know if they return...and I will taunt them a second time.
And there are times when right is right.
If I let my neighbor get the snot beat out of them because it might cause me trouble in the long run, and I might not “gain” anything from it, that still makes me wrong.
The President will be speaking at noon eastern apparently. He will obviously be ratcheting thinks up some. The question will be just how much. The real wild card as always is Turkey. Will they want to have Russia on their border ? Got to bail. Stay safe.
Are the 5 Presidents still in Tblisi? May take some guts, but if these guys are willing to physically personally face down the Russians, they would probably back off.
Now you and I agree on that point. I do not like the men going into houses with potential hand to hand gun combat. Or booby trapped homes. But I also understand if we were to go to that level of using tanks, we might as well just wipe out whole neighborhoods with air fire.
And we just denied Israel the means to do just that...
I fart in your general direction.
Thanks, you too.
Got to go see my soon to be born granddaughter!!!!
She will be here in a couple of hours!
Well, sometimes talk is just that. On another front, FNC just interviewed the Big Foot investigator and he invited Fox News Megan to see for herself this creature next week, whats next, revelations that aliens exist. You know, it has always been said that before WWIII would break out some revolutionary discovery would be made. Just saying, this all too freaky.
AMEN! It turns out I've had opportunities to do both in my lovely neighborhood. One has to be discerning as to when action is required and when patience is required.
So if your neighbors start killing your other neighbors and taking over their homes... Its better to let them do so?
heh...
I really just dont know what to say to this...
This isnt just bad behavior for christs sake, this is open war on a free country. Dont try to make this analogous with neighbors and bear cubs and fluffy bunnies. This isnt about being afraid, you should be... This is about doing the right thing even though the danger is very real. We CANNOT let a free country fall to an aggressive russia.
This gives Putin an "excuse" to take the Georgian port, since the fleet "can't go home."
