    i've got have been given some ocean front sources in Arizona for all of us who thinks those shipments encompass humanitarian help purely. The Rooskies are already suspicious and it does not be thoughts-blowing in the event that they have been to confiscate and look into fairly some the goodies stepping into. the clarification the U.S. is even in Eurasia is for hedgemony over any governments who do not choose for to bypass alongside with the recent international Order or greater accurately called the project for a sparkling American Century. the government controlled press is making it appear like this is all Russia's fault whilst it grew to become into Georgia, decrease than the prodding of the U.S. who attacked Russians interior the breakaway provinces with a view to elicit a reaction that would provide them a reason to take Russia on. i think of Bush has taken on greater beneficial than he can bite this time. This further to the consistent threats against Iran skill that each thing are coming jointly for the worldwide conflagration. only because of the fact the bible says, God is putting hooks interior the jaws of the combatants. we are able to hate wars all we choose however the bible says wars and desolations are desperate ideal as much as the top.

    No of course not. If you are drawing an analogy to Russia and Georgia, it is not accurate as Georgia has been granted Independence and that was recognized by Russia. So using your analogy, if New York was granted it's Independence from the US and the US recognized it, then yes it would be OK for other countries to defend NY if the US bombed them. Hope you understand the difference.

    If NY had successfully driven out federal forces and applied for and received British passports and peacekeepers then yes.

    Under the concepts of self determination and democracy it would be immoral and probable illegal for Washington to use force to stop NY from separating.

    How totally hypocritical, the cross border attacks the US carries out in Pakistan, the invasion of Iraq, Panama and Grenada where/are direct violations of other countries, the Russians defend them selves from attack and the USA screams foul, pathetic whining bullies

    I see your point, but if the North American Colonies succeeded from Great Britain, would it be ok for France to get involved and help the US?

    But, I'm pretty sure I'm pro-Georgia. For more info on the conflict see below.

    Nope.

    However, I believe this is a better analogy:

    Santa Cruz county in Arizona is majority Mexican American. Let's say all residents have dual-citizenship, and consider themselves Mexican residents. They fight for autonomy, and gain it. The U.S. doesn't like this autonomy any more, so they move in to regain control, making the Mexican government react by sending in troops.

    Right or wrong, I think this one is a better analogy.

    No. Very good analogy if I understand it right.

    NY is South Ossetia, the USA is Georgia, and Britain is Russia?
