Question

Why did the USA's leaders Bush/Cheney/Rice prompt Georgia to attack Russia and cost billions?

Answer 1

You taking Putins word for it? You might as well listen to Hitler or the Pope!!

Answer 2

You got it backwards friend. S. Osetia under Russian influence kept agitating until Georgia couldn't take it any more.  That's what the Russians are best at. They draw you into a fight and make it look like it was all your fault.

Answer 3

1. Some powers in US are probably planning a war against Iran, But if Obama will be elected, he certainly will not allow such a war to begin. As for McCain, he would most likely begin this war, so this Georgia-Russia conflict is started to give McCain new arguments and improve his rhetoric and therefore boost his popularity and chances to win.

2. USA doesn't want Russia to be strong, because strong Russia is able to disturb US' hegemony over the world. So US is trying to spread a panic all over the world to weaken Russia and deprive it of its allies.

3. Perhaps US is planning a nuclear war with Russia. With Russia thus demonized, this attack will be easier to justify and US will have more sincere supporters in this aggression.

Answer 4

They didn't.

Answer 5

They didn't.

Do you have a credible link that shows they did?

Answer 6

They didn't.  Granted they probably shouldn't have attacked but Russia was constantly aggravating the situation.  Why, because they still have a lot of cold war mentality in their ranks.  

Answer 7

where did you hear that?

Answer 8

Probably for the same reason that the Democrat party paid Russia to say that the USA leaders persuaded Georgia to provoke Russia.

In other words, I doubt either happened and it's just Russia trying to impact the election because they know Obama would be a pushover to get free appeasements from.
