peoples opinions?

i know there are 2 huge pipelines in the region. however i cant see dubya getting involved tbh apart from chatting shit like allways..

however if nato goes in and us nationals get blitzed then who knows... plus troops already in afghanistan are they REALLY stretched? not to mention black water doing their shit behind the scenes these are interesting times and the bear is flexing his muscles!

This May lead to WWIII, hopefully it won't but you never know. this is what alot of people are saying

^^^I am hoping for WWIII. Its got to happen sometime. Russia has a chip on their shoulders. The USSR fell hard. The US provides aid for Georgia and so do other western countries. Russia relies more on relations with the Middle East. If tensions keep boiling China must choose a side and then we begin WWIII. Quite possibly we also end a huge portion of human life.

My favorite quote from Albert Einstein... "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

peoples opinions?

Some interesting comments from Defense Secretary Robert Gates (http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gQYe039zkquHxitiI6u4M_TRr_BAD92I5K9O0) on the subject of US military intervention in the region. It seems that the Bush administration has finally grasped the concept of 'biting off more than you can chew'.

Shame it's come about 5 years too late.

It all starts with the Russia v Georgia business, then USA assists Georgia, first with medicine and food, next with troops, then USA angers Russia and then it's up to the rest of the world to choose sides. Do you believe this is possible?

I believe this to be true. A number of conflicts are starting to rise such as the Russians attacking the Georgians, the disagreement on human rights in China and Chinas retaliatory statement points to rising tensions between world nations.

Stay tuned for more!

Supposedly russia are going to pull out of georgia,

But, will russia honestly get away with it? They have invaded georgia and now all their doing is going back home without no words of warning. Surely there have been international laws that have been breached and broken.

probably the same laws we broke going into afghan and iraq except all these years later, hey ho we still there!

US and Israeli military and mercenaries were running war games with the Georgian military for awhile up until a month ago. hhhmm....

Georgias dying to become a nato member and a friend of the west. Very unlikely theyd do this without US approval.

Not to mention the timing, and the ridicoulasly biased coverage in the US. Georgia was aggressor, and they bombed their own civilians, and they bombed russian peacekeepers.

Not to mention this happened in the early 90s the same thing happened. Georgia had to know russia was gonna attack, just like they did last time Georgia tried to takeover South Ossentia.

All I know is something just isnt right here...

why are we always on what appears to be the aggressive side?

i wouldnt be so bothered if our army wanted to liberate and help others but when you know about false flag ops and all the cia shit it pisses me off
