For several years now, the Russians have been selling advanced anti-tank weapon systems to the Iranians.
Those weapons systems have ended up in the hands of Iranian-backed insurgents in Iraq and are responsible for the deaths of American servicemen as well as our allies in the Iraqi military. Not to mention innocent Iraqi civilians.
Russia might not exactly be our enemy, but I see no reason to cheer them on.
Georgia killed ~1,400 Russian civilians today.
We have no business sticking our noses into the Caucasus, any more than we did in the Balkans.
