You're talking about that Soros-puppet/orange clown Sockawillie or whatever his name is who thought he was just going to walk into South Ossetia and take it??
Sort of, I'm really talking about the political tactics and moral/ethical principles that Russia (Putin) used to justify and validate the invasion of Georgia, and the consequence that Syrian Christians would look to Russia for protection by citizenship rather than risk doublecross by the US.
Russia is far from perfect, but distrust of the US must be very serious in these long standing Christian communities.
