  1. The Gorgians deserve geting there *** kickt , they just attack them for no reson  , GO RUSSIA


  2. Not this time. Georgia's in the wrong. Plus where they invaded doesn't like them or want to leave Russia. Besides it's on Russia's border. The US is gonna huff 'n puff but it's still a local affair.

    For now.

  3. I sure Hope so , or we should stop calling countries our allies. It is time to stand up against Russia and or China

  4. The most likely war is to be a fossil fuel war.

    I don't see the west (UK) getting down and dirty. There's too much might within the Ruskies, and too little capacity left in our armies!

    Good Q!

  5. lets HOPE NOT. If the West join in then allies of Russia will join too leading into something which we all fear:

    WORLD WAR 3 - The Nuclear Holocaust?

  6. the us has got their own issues going on and russia and georgia just need to take their problem somewhere else because the last thing we need is the draft back (it would happen because we would be dealing with more than one fight and people would be reluctant to fight russia and yada yada yada).

    i just think for once, we need to just step back and let them deal with their own probs...why the heck does every problem have to end in violence? why cant britain take our place, they are long overdue anyways...at least i think, i honestly dont care for war and think that leaders are stupid for thinking killing makes a situation better.

  7. I can't see what all the fuss is about. They are fighting over a country the size of a postage stamp!! Just let them get on with it. We have got too much going on in the Middle East to worry about Russia and Georgia!

  8. If Russia doesn't stop, you bet (the USA will).

    I'd never count on Europe again (therefore why we need to get out of NATO).

  9. Highly unlikely and in any event, why is everyone looking in the wrong direction?

    The oil is now in the Southern Atlantic and guess what?  Yes, it's ours and there's lots of it.

    Forget the Russians.

  10. token help perhaps. georgia will also most likely not be made member of nato as this episode brings to fore the possibility of nato being dragged to war with russia if georgia is made a member.

    nato as an alliance works best when it deters aggression from other countries, but, a prospect member like georgia itself looking to wage war, does not fall into that equation.  

  11. It's doubtful, althought tension between the West and Russia have been strained of late because of the "spy-war" with the UK and Russia's fall back towards authoritarian government. If it did come to that the russin military is hardly up for the fight, despite what putin wants us to believe with his air shows. Full of conscipts and soviet era technology, not to mention their aging navy. The russian air force hasnt seen a new plane for alomst a decade.

  12. don't think so

    there were peacemakers killed and no metter if they were russians

    I don't think West should support Georgia in case Georgia broke all the agreements achieved

    also the are toooooo much civilians killed in Osetia the capital is totally ruined!

    It's immoral to support a government in setting and commiting a humaniterian disaster

  13. Well if a west is so dull what to begin war with Russia from what that gruzii, khan it will be the whole world

  14. No, but we still have combat trainers in Georgia.

    If the Russians kill any of our soldiers accidentally, or intentionally, we will retaliate fiercely.  

  15. If the west will allow itself to be dragged into a war with Russia, then it will. But the facts clearly speaks for themselves. Georgia is virtually carrying out ethnic cleansing on its minority regions. It would be a clear hypocrisy for the west if it will go to Georgia's aid on this one. Georgia is cleary on the wrong here. If the west will have to support Georgia, it has to throw its moral values out of the window, further diminishing the west's credibility standing in the eyes of all nations.


  16. no

    russia can deliver more firepower to US cities than has been used in every war that has ever been fought in the history of mankind and do it in less than 20 minutes.

    it won't happen, but if it does you will likely die a slow miserable death or be vaporized   (unless you live in the southern hemisphere)

  17. No.

    Don't think so.

    Since it's just an internal conflicts.

    That is what the UN out there for.

    Since member of the UN say they have more than 200 members.

    Time for them to foot the bills and get on with their work.

    Don't just talk about it.

  18. NO
