I agree, of course. However, when I think of HOW — I think that talking is not going to be a large enough stick to push back with. Russia wants to see what we’ll do, and if we’ll have any backbone, and back-up from the Euros. Will we??
Watch the Rice video. She said that the Russians "attacked" Georgia.
She's right; it's true. So. Ossetia says it was attacked by Georgia, what, a week ago? And phwam! Russian troops begin bombing Georgia.
Russia was originally brought in as a part of the "peace keeping" force between two regions: So. Ossetia and Georgia. So no matter this way or that, Russia attacked Georgia. Russia took a warrish side. It did not act as a "peace keeper". Russia acted with war upon a sovereign nation, Georgia. There's no ways about this.
Don't know. . .if the way we threaten and appease Ahmadinejad. . .is any kind of clue; they probably feel on safe ground. Add to that the 'Liberal' climate of self-induced PC; and make 'nice not war'. . .they probably feel even safer. And then of course, there is the 'oil card'. It is not just our President's 'backbone' that is at issue; but the one that holds us up 'collectively' as a nation.

Tell your friend to sit tight. Putin will be shown his place here real soon.
Prior to that I had only seen a quick blurb of him on CNN and he looked bad in it.
Actually this is so amazing. All three speeches, Condi, Bush today and Misha, are awesome, I think.
Thanks for sharing that link.
I am a really bad person. I am starting to dream about our jets dropping bombs on those Russians tanks. And enjoying the idea.
I also watched his interview with Cavuto later this afternoon on FNC. it was about 20 minutes long.He articulated Georgia’s position very well. I think Georgia is blessed to have him as president, I think he will do what is best for Georgia .
He is a very strong Christian and I noticed how carefully he has stated things.
why don’t you get some real information on this situation..your statements are factually wrong.russian “peacekeeprs “ were Russian security KGB forces, etc.
Interesting that the russians have been fomenting this for years..funny you never reported that to us before?
You are getting your talking points from the western media which got their talking points afrom Moscow and NEVER questioned them.
try doing a little research first, then post.
I set up a thread earlier...”Does anyone know a Georgian within Georgia?”
Now that we can get emails..can they get on Freepr???
Excellant post.
MarMema..could you start one of those pings...a Georgia Ping list?
I would want to be on it.
How do you send in “peacekeeprs’ into a sovereign nation that wants its (Russia’s ) peacekeepers to ensure that nation’s overthrow?
Let’s just think even remotely logically on this.
Russia calls them “peacekeepers” and the whole media buys Moscows talking points.
what if we had Mexico send in Mexican peacekeeprs to Los angeles or our southern border???
Hope flickr continues to share on site; or at least w/you. . .in which case; hope you will continue to share her comments - and pleas for help and for Peace. No doubt, one must be very careful.
Should you MarMema. . .please add my name ;^).
