Okay. I was thinking about us looting those two strategic long-range bombers. Did we get our hummers back?

No, we won't get the Hummers or their value until hostilities between Russia and Georgia formally cease, according to international law. The Russians seized neutral property of military value under right of angary. You might not like it, but precedent going back over two centuries allows it.

Not a chance of getting the Hummers back. Video of the Hummers etc, back in Russia being driven around.

Even the Serbs still have the Hummer they captured from the U.S. Army back in 1999. They eventually put it in a museum.
