Now's the time to help the Serbs drive the islamics out of Kosovo for good & get Belgrade solidly on board with the west for Cold War II.

Sounds like shrewd policy to me.

But. But. I thought the only reason Russia invaded Georgia in the first place was to AVENGE the terrible injustices the West had perpetrated against Serbia!!! (Note outrage.)

How could the Serbs be so ungrateful to think the Russians were doing it just for themselves?

Russia’s attempt to break up Georgia is in retaliation of NATO’s support of Kosovo independence. Next, the Russians will try to help Serb controlled part of Kosovo break off and rejoin Serbia.

Reason #4. It might make Serbians nervous that in the future Russia may see Serbia as just another piece of property to acquire. And if circumstances presented themselves they would.
