Im not saying go into Georgia with guns a blazing..Just go in their under peace keeping only..Our Air force and Navy dont have much to do in Iraq or Afganastan anyways..Its the Army and Marines who are stretched out..With the Iraq taking more and more control of its country we have a few brigades sitting around we could use..And whatever the EU and NATO can toss in..

We have been training their troops for the last 5 or 6 years as well as providing basic arms; however, they have their own industrial base with the capability to produce weapons (for instance, the ground attack bomber Suk-25 which Russia attacked early on in the current exchange). Reality is this is a former Soviet Union bloc country that we have no business being involved with. Creates way too much risk for the world, not just us. I am thankful this did not happen after Georgia was a member of Nato or else we would have a serious problem. Russia is going to ring in it's satellite states that have been acting against their view of the "greater good." Doesn't make it right but our hands are tied. Diplomacy is the answer here. Firm but fair! Do you really want to risk WWIII for a country who provided 2000 troops?

But I speak Russian language as well and watch news every day CNN and Russian channels. People, open your eyes! Did you here that august 7 in Tshinvali(SO) women and children die? They were smashed under Georgian Tanks! Older woman and 2 small children were smashed.. Tank crossed over them treating like a dirt. How about women burned alive in the garage? It isn't about just one case. It is about 2000 people(official number)! Why CNN keeps quiet about it? Why did we here the news august 8th only delivered to your ears by Georgian president. I don't care how dirty poliTIcal games could be. But I care about mothers and their children. I appreciate the country where I live in. But I can't close my ears and eyes when innocent die. Do we care? Does anyone care at all? What if your family will be executed like that tomorrow. Will you care then? I hope someone heard me.If not just forget it...

Where are we going to get the soldiers? Is it our job to save the world? More importantly, how can the President stand up and say it's unlawful to invade a sovereign nation in the 21st century when it's exactly what we did in Iraq?
