US and Russian warships took up positions in the Black Sea today in a risky war of nerves on opposing sides of the Georgia conflict.

With the Russians effectively controlling Georgia's main naval base of Poti, Moscow also dispatched the Moskva missile cruiser and two smaller craft on "peacekeeping" duties at the port of Sukhumi on the coast of Abkhazia, the breakaway region that the Kremlin recognised as independent yesterday.

Wasn't sure where to put this: it's too old for breaking news and it isn't a middle east issue. Sorry if this is the wrong place.

Anyway, apparently there is still some tension in the Russia/Georgia issue and we (the US) are getting involved. At the moment, it's just a standoff and let's hope it stays that way. The last thing we need is a war with Russia on top of a potential war with North Korea.

All of these potential conflicts at once is very suspicious. If this is a distraction tactic (and i'm not saying it is, just throwing the possibility out there), there must be something huge they are trying to divert attention from.
