And it is the pipeline we are supporting, and the fight against Russian dominance of energy in Europe.
The world is not a good place when Russia can terrorize all of Europe into doing what it wants. Eventually it will reach us, one way or the other.
Parrot: This,...allong with many evidences...such as the full scale South Federal District military manuevers in July,...with Elite units,...having their full mechanized armor flown in,...and their ammo stockpiles particular to their brigades,....confirms the premise,..that Russia drilled,....and then flipped it Live on the Georgians!
Russia has an attitude now,...but yet,..its just resurfaced.
Chechens bloodied Russia,....Russia sought ceasefire,,...and then signed a peace treaty leaving Chechnyu independent.
Russia invaded in 1999...and secured their win in 2000.
Seems like Russian foreign policy is to invade/attack when it suits them,....treaty's mean nothing type thing. Former FSB director and prime minister of Russia Sergei Stepashin said in an interview to Novaya gazeta that "the decision to invade Chechnya was made in March 1999"..[wiki]
I applaud your stand MarMena,......Russia will extort,..and by force....when it suits them.
Georgia should be armed and trained to defend with quality weapons....quality!
Seeing that Europe is caving in allready.....[Gee who would have thunk : )],....all the more reason to commit to Georgia.
