A war has just broken out between Russia and Georgia-just on the news now!

[Plato]

A thousand dead is hardly a skirmish!
It's the Muslim Seperatists!
when USSr broke up Georgis pulled away although many Russians live ther and feel part of Russia still-Muslims behind this!
not sure sono

[Judge ~Snizz~]

that's not good!!!

It's not a war - It is a skirmish, not yet a war. Now, what's your question? Oh, by the way, it's not a contest, is it? Bullying Russians.

Edit : I do not care what the stupid questioner thinks. Is a one-sided bombing raid a war? NO! It's not a war, and it'll be over before the end of next week.

what I want to know is, what is it that Georgia has that Russia wants, or needs ?

I too am worried

I was reading about this this morning. Georgia is leaning towards the west and wants to join Nato, Russian pride won't tolerate this. The Georgians claimed earlier to have shot down two Russian fighter planes. We know how Russia left Afghanistan, and what they do in Chechnya, looks like more destruction ahead, Russia's confident and ready to flex it's muscle.

And what is your question.
I'm so how sure that the "war" will be over in the next a couple of days.

There are about 150 American troops in Georgia right now on a training mission

Yeah, it just broke out. Last night. The news are getting pretty slow at reporting important news.

i agree with Scotch Mist, and i think its going to be a very "cold and deadly" winter in many parts of Europe due to this conflict.
