Where will the assets to wipe them out come from? How will they get there? How long will it take to move sufficient assets there, and what steps could russia take to neutralize a military build-up which would undoubtably take days?

We have air assets sufficient to run them out of Georgia that are within range, in fact only a few hundred miles. But that's not the issue. The issue is to avoid a direct conflict if we can, and accomplish the same thing.

It's underway now. All we can do is hope that sanity rules, but I would not count on it.

totally agreed, my rhetorical list of questions was directed at the previous poster I responded to, who pretty much advocated WW III today (not tomorrow). Even world-wars take time to move assets into position.
