At an event at a Boca Raton synagogue, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said that the United States should let Russia invade Georgia. Beginning at the 3:50 mark in the following YouTube video, which was recorded by Pamela Geller of the blog Atlas Shrugs, Nadler says:

We have not been willing to put our priorities properly. We have not been willing to say ... "Hey Russia, we won't expand NATO into the Ukraine and Georgia, right next to your borders, if you cooperate with us on Iran." ...

I think Iran and Israel are a hell of a lot more important than expanding NATO to Russia's borders. Why should we? What do we need it for?

Someone in the crowd says: "Because they invaded Georgia."

Nadler retorts: "So let 'em invade Georgia. It's right next to them. Would we tolerate a foreign--a Russian army in Mexico? Which is more important to us Georgia or Israel, frankly?"

Another voice in the crowd asks Nadler: "What is more important to us Czechoslovakia or Austria?"

"That's a completely separate kind of question," Nadler replies.

The Georgians didn't want to be invaded by the Russian Empire in the early 1800’s, they didn't want to be invaded by the Russian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic in 1918, and they didn't want to be invaded by the Russian Federation in 2008.

That Stalin and his commissars sent 20 million Russians to their death by their incompetent conduct of the war against Hitler does not constitute an obligation by the Georgian people to meekly submit to the rapacious greed of the evil kleptocrats in the Kremlin today.

What is there about the concept of freedom that you have difficulty grasping?

[wendy1946]

You’re claiming that Georgia could have stopped Hitler on its own?

BTC pipeline: Turkish, British and partly American owned. Sure. Take it.

Not likely.

“dude, I think that’s already happened (with nary a shot fired) /s “

Lets try not insulting the only Republican voting block in south Florida , mmk

[Cheburashka]

I'm saying that Georgia owes nothing to Georgia's rapists.

If you feel the Kremlin Kleptocrats are owed something by all means open your bank account and send them your own money. Give til it hurts.

If I had to pick one country in that part of the world to describe as a rape victim it would be Serbia and not Georgia.

[1rudeboy]

Rape victim, or rapist?

[varmintman]

Try asking that question after the UN steps in demanding that we simply hand the entire American South West over to Mexico on the same perverted basis SlicK KKKlinton went into Kosovo over.

[Little Ray]

Does this mean we can invade Mexico, Canada and Cuba? (Well, counter-invade Mexico...)

So? Call Putin and no doubt he will be happy to rape the Serbs for you as well.

[varmintman]

So far Russia is the only country which has made any serious effort to help Serbia rebuild.
