The double-standards of west astound me. First they attack Iraq and kill its president Saddam Hussein, when the entire world knew Iraq was of no consequence to US and had no WMD of any kind. Then when Russians defend Russians in South Ossetia, the western countries adopt a holier than thou attitude and talk of supporting Georgia and accusing Russia of war crimes.
Georgia: Too Soon to Celebrate?

The Russians are not through with Georgia yet. They are just re-grouping for another attack. The Russians will never quit until they have obtained their goal which is subjugation and take-back of the nation of Georgaia into the waithing arms of Mother Russia.

Maybe just Regime Change. There was also a bomb blast at Sochi that was reported in China. This went off on a beach in Russia as Georgia was seting up to take down S. Ossetia. Now, how would Russia react to the harming of Ossetians?
Beslan was the site of the deaths of hundreds of in N Ossetia. Russia took that hard. Any attack on these people is an attack on Russia. I doubt they will annex anything more than they already occupied. They will however punish Georgia for this folly for a generation. Ivan can be a little passive agressive that way.

Randy Scheunemann is the President of the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq, which was created by the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), of which he is a board member. He was Trent Lott's National Security Aide and was an advisor to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Iraq. He is 2008 Presidential candidate John McCain's foreign-policy aide.
Scheunemann has been criticized for his close association with Ahmad Chalabi during the George W. Bush administration's campaign to generate public support for the 2003 invasion of Iraq.[1]
In mid-July 2008, The Sunday Times linked Scheunemann to Stephen Payne, a lobbyist covertly filmed as he offered to arrange meetings with Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and others, in exchange for donations to the George W. Bush presidential library. Payne said Scheunemann had been "working with me on my payroll for five of the last eight years". [2]
Until March of 2008, Scheunemann lobbied for Republic of Georgia as a registered foreign agent. [3] [4] In August 2008, Barak Obama spokesman Hari Sevugan supposed that Scheunemann's past lobbying may have been a reason of McCain openly taking Georgia's side in 2008 South Ossetia war. [5]

U.S. better be careful. A Baltic allience could mean a new world war, esspecailly if Poland and the Ukraine get involved, knowing the EU and US would have no choice in involvement then, or they would risk a new USSR, and the fall of all nations that broke away.

That's right, these irresponsible fools have us on the brink of a great war. McCain is calling for blood and waving the flag, and his top policy adviser is a registered agent for Georgia. Didn't the Republican guy Black say in a memo McCain needed a war? Looks like they got one, in spades.
Saakashvili is now asking McCain for troops! You Republicans really tickle me, stealing all the oil all the time and making other people do your filthy work. You tickle me.
