The real lowdown on the Georgia situation.....
If the US does not act now, and yes militarily in some form (at least supporting Georgia with weapons)....Russia will go after another former satellite. If they get away with Georgia...someone else will be next
The Liberal-Globalist diplomacy track isnt going to cut it. The Russians know diplomacy is code for inaction.
It will get ugly if Russia is allowed to win in Georgia...and then decides to go after a Baltic state later. Then, there will be no choice but to send in US military forces
Your comment is worth repeating.
I’m wondering if Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan are the goal, then they have the land bridge to connect with Iran (their politicl ally for the last decade) and control of huge oil and natural gas reserves/pipelines etc all the way into the middle east to the Strait of Hormuz...pretty easy to have the world by the balls if you control that much of the worlds energy sources.
As for the before mentioned nuclear capacity...I suspect they would have their minions in Iran deliver the nukes so as not to leave that footprint for repercussions (along the lines of mutually assured destruction)...just a thought
