    I don't think Russia has the right to invade Georgia. Georgia was simply trying to regain control of one of its own "states". It would be like if Florda tried to become part of Europe and then the U.S. sent in troops to reclaim our state. Would you honestly expect Europe to also invade Florda to try and claim it as theirs? That doesn't make any sense! South Ossetia is part of Georgia not Russia...



     

    Actually, Russia did have the right .

    Georgia granted Russia that right as part of it's peace accord in 1992. Georgia, Ossetia and Russia have all signed a treaty to this very end.

     

    It's also not correct to say Russia invaded. Russia was already there. Russia re-inforced it''s peace keepers.

    Also, Ossetian separatist had set off an IDE that killed 6 Georgian soldiers and wounded many others causing the Georgians to defend themselves.    They were trying to take out the people who had set off the IDE with rockets.(bad choice - yes) and some of those rockets hit Russian peace keepers stationed in South Ossetia.  



    Not quite so much "bad" as unbelieveable.

    .Bill Clinton , G.W ,  They all have good and bad things to reflect back on . But none of them except for one committed an international War Crime. Maybe you should look past the Bush love and Bush hate and realize the guy made many mistakes.

     

    Bill Clinton and GW just made mistakes huh?



    Do you have any idea what you are talking about?



    Bill Clinton tossed out important banking and business regulations that led to several recessions, and what is looking to be a global depression. The GMO Patenting and Mansanto monopoly also occurred on his watch. The USA is the only nation on the face of the earth that tolerates that.



    GW not only allowed these things to continue and worsen, but also put the taxpayers on the hook for an indeterminate number of hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of dollars to bail out private institutions. He also tried to push an amnesty bill, and never took care of the border, or anything.



    The only other president that has made these kinds of mistakes might be Woodrow Wilson, but at least he admitted to what he did, later, and genuinely regretted it.

    Did you even read what I wrote ? I said He (BUSH) made many mistakes , not to imply they were "just"  mistakes but to say the guy deserves all the criticism he gets.In response to the everyday Bush may have done this but Clinton did that rebuttal.

    I completely agree with everything you just said ,I'm no fan of either Clinton or Bush.

    From my angle.

     

    Bush makes bigger mistakes but is a loyal ally, Clinton made smaller problems but was an enemy.

    This is where I think our intelligence community has really missed the boat. I really have a problem with Al Quada moving messages around by mule. I would like to see them in the digital age, moving encrypted messages through cyberspace utilizing satelites, all with equipment and software provided covertly by the CIA through various front organizations. All Al Quada would be able to understand is that Allah doesn't want anyone to listen. It would be the great joke of the War on Terrorism.

    It would make it much easier to keep tabs on what they are up to.

    There was a war in to late 1960's, early 1970s in Africa, I believe, in which the CIA dropped leaflets over the guerilla airfield showing a picture of a luxury mansion and offering a reward to the first pilot to defect with a Mig jet. The Russians went nuts, and grounded the entire guerilla air force.

    The CIA used to be pretty smart boys.......

    haha, now thats funny olddaddy.

    its been my belief(or hope) that we know where bin laden is and are just keeping tabs on him from his cave.

    the trick is to get one of them transponders inserted in the mules ass from 4400 ft away. need a real 'crack shot' to perform that one.
