NO Not Yet Unless The Russian Troops Withdraw From South Ossetia

Answer 3

i think its mainly about Russia, that tries to be one of the leaders of the world, thay have been used to it  and after the Sovet Union was ruined it still tries to regain the power.

besides Georgia is western country democratic, tends to be in Nato and EU.. and Russia doesn't care about the South Ossetians . The last of their interests is protecting anyone, probably not even their paratroopers. This is just the perfect excuse that they've been looking for to diminish Georgia's influence or to outright control part or all of it.

besides Georgia is a good country to start with, it has 2 conflct zones - South Ossetia and Abhkazia ( both of them are backed by russia and for the present moment both of them are attacking Georgia, its said so, but non of the conflict zones has enough troops or army, its all russia who provides the conflict zones and involves them in a war against Georgia
