I don't know much about the region or who did what to who first but I just have to fall in and say what I have to say.

Public announcement should have been aired. "Well our media condones that, they say what they want." You might say. To me, as long as Russia would have announced, "We will give you [so many hours/days] to step up or get out or else..." it'd serve as a hard copy that Georgia did something. Or vice versa for Gerogia to announce, "ASSISTANCE!!! They are going to invade!!!" Nope, I tried finding something that'd announce a forewarning.

So in my eyes I see that Russia just said, "Hey, let's invade."

For whatever reason Russia invaded Georgia, it still looks bad if it continues. Looks like the beginning of a WW3. History shows us that this has happened for reasons like or close to what is going on now.

I personally don't what another world war to flare up, let alone with Bush in office. American forces are spread thinner now than ever before. As you know. If WW3 were to begin, we'd be the first out of the WW3 mania and we'd be speaking Russian before the wars were over.

Nevertheless, if Russia has signed the cease-fire, pull out, don't be a Bush. Unless they want something to happen...

My thoughts and condolences are out the victims and children that have suffered mentally and physically.
