" A better “humantarian” exercise might be a US aircraft carrier, just off the coast, with a few “humantarian” aircraft loaded up to the max with “humantarian” weapons of ahh...self defense."

90,000 tons of " humantarian aid "

“....90,000 tons of “ humantarian aid...”

Actually, those 90,000 tons make good humanitarian sense.

There are physicians and surgical suites on board to treat the wounded.

Desalination plants to provide fresh water for the Georgians.

Helicopters to aid search and rescue.

The kitchens could feed thousands.

There is plenty of room for some the high-risk displaced and wounded.

Those other things you mention, well, those are just ‘incidental’ items. ;-)
