Georgia started this war, only to be let down by America when it needed them.

I say let them fight their own battles. America won't challenge Russia, it only takes on countries that can't fight back
However there's loads of oil to be had, so lets see what happens....

America will not go into Georgia. Not even Bush would be so bold. Like other have said, Bush will only go after countries he knows can't fight back worth a #. (allthough, look what that got him in Iraq)

No man, Bush is basically going to rant and rave on T.V. make himself feel better and repair his ego seeing as so many are calling him gutless now. But IMO thats basically it.

Russia will pound Georgia for a few more days and then pull back to S.O.

Correct me if I am wrong here, but I havent seen Russia make any attempt at invading or overthrowing the government of a soverign nation. I havent seen Russia occupy any country that is 3,000 miles away for the better part of six years. I havent seen Russia force their way of life onto other nations in order to promote "their" way of thinking and believing.

I havent seen Russia seize an entire country in order to reap the profits from their oil wells/natural resources. I havent heard Vladamir Putin talking about the need to spread Russian ideology at any cost.


Russia responded to an attempted ethnic cleansing of it's own citizens in an outer province that was under attack. How would you expect America to respond if we were to find out that Russia was sending billions of dollars and weaponry to Mexico with the attempt to influence the politics of that country for the benefit of Russia?


Exactly right. Not sure why people are blaming Russia after Georgia started this conflict. If Russia really wanted to, they could take back all of Georgia. The U.S. has been trying to surround Russia with its little puppet governments. They've been trying to get Georgia into NATO which fortunately the Europeans are against since it's quite an agressive attitude towards Russia along with the ABMs they're trying to put along their border. I thought the cold war ended. You'd think with all that's going wrong with their economy that they'd start focusing on problems at home.
