How far into this Russia/Georgia conflict are we going to be sucked into?

Question

My heart goes out to the Georgians, but do we really need to get involved? Can't the europeans handle it? What is exactly Russia's point anyway?

Answer 1

Thankfully, Bush has thoroughly destroyed our military so we can't support Georgia. I can't believe Bush is supporting Georgia to begin with. This is what happened:

1) South Ossetia has been functionally independent for years

2) Russia has been supporting South Ossetia separatist for almost as long.

3) Georgia put troops into South Ossetia to reassert power

4) Russia went in to help the South Ossetia separatist.

5) Bush blames Russia as the aggressor

Answer 2

F*cking Medvedev. Poor people in georgia. Literaly.

Answer 3

actually the its very logical. since the U.S. is now in the depth of dept, their movement is limited and going to war is a stupid thing to do. now russia started to move after the U.S. went down due to the war in the middle east. conquering georgia will give russia an additional oil power. the bad thing about is, if russia has an alliance to other nations, that we still dont know, and try to conquer powerfull countries. if this will happen, WW3 will break.

Answer 4

we that's the UK cant get involved its their business  they are always having mini-wars in the carcases let them sort out their own problem  anyway if the EU pokes its nose in the Russians might cut of supplies of liquid gas and oil

Answer 5

And Why you heart don't goes out to the Osetians kids аnd others the peace inhabitants crushed by the Georgian tanks? Or thousand women burnt in the houses?

But... But What? Russia stops this h**l.

By the way, in Russia already there are some military instructors from the USA which trained the Georgian soldiers. It is brutal...

Answer 6

McCain and Obama when talkin about Georgia, Bothe were defending Democracy in this country. Unlike Afganistan and Iraq, ruled by criminal gangs and Dictators, Georgia has Legitime gvrmnt. Russia needed reason to invade Georgia because of it's ambitions to become NATO and EU member. Russia is afraid that in this case NATO will border it from the south also. S. Ossetia and Abkhazia are only reasons. on 1993 Russians made hundred of thousands of Georgians to leave their homes in this regions and become refugees in their own country. Many Georgians still live in S. Ossetia and abkhazia and Russians by shooting this Civilian Georgians provocated Georgian government which was trying to defend it's people and territory. Russia has a dream to become New world Leader and rebuild New Soviet Union!

Answer 7

Listen its not about Georgia or Osetia its a test if the World will Unite and stop the  war  than well all be safe !

However if we fall  back and allow Russia to do what it wants to do then we gonna show Russia thats its okay for them to attack and annex the small countries Russia will not stop will attack diffrent countries and before we know it were gonna live in Russia and the kreml will call the entire Planet Russia cause Russia will be the only country in the World !

I hate listening to you Americans (whats are buisness in Georgia) Ill wait untill were gonna see Rusian flags in Washington and a Russian Governer will sit in the White House then were gonna go to school in New York and were gonna hear that shuch state as USA never did exist !

If we allow Russia to have Osetia what makes you think they will stop there listen ohnestly Putin and the kreml dosent care what Bush sais if

they wanna atack they gonna ! So stop being stupid ******* a*****s Americans if Russia wont be pressured it wont stop Either Youre with us European on this matter or start practicing Russian cause I belive Tsar Putin is prepairing him self !

Maybe if USA would be in Polands place of the world would its people understand that Russia anexing any country or helping any nation is planing to Destroy the stability of the world we know !

If you think USA won the Cold War think again you morons its the economical problems which defeated the Soviets but theyre still they needed time and who else besides Poland to  better  know whats Russia intentions are !!!! Russia needed time but didnt resign from the dream of taking over the world !

Answer 8

We are probably sucked into it more than we should be now. It's one thing to talk tough, but now we are sending aid into them. And the Russians are questioning it. What happens if one of those C-17's is shot down? Whether intentionally or not? We would then be out into a very dangerous situation. I feel bad for all the people involved, but our government MUST be very careful to not get US involved in yet another conflict. We already have our hands full and the Russians know it!!!

Answer 9

Europeans?..All they know how to do is talk..And talk..And talk..Thats were the US then stands up like a fool and says..Alright..Alright..We'll do it..And after America leaves the room..All the Europeans break out in laughter..We did it again..

Answer 10

We have not been sucked into this mess yet. Uncle Sam just made a few complains with no action. I really don't think Uncle Sam should send those 2000 Georgian soldiers back because their possibility to die in Georgia is much higher than in Iraq as they are sent to the front line to counter  the Russia Bear.
