I hope and trust that I'm not the only one watching and in great distress over the fact that from all signs it appears that Russia is about to absorb - not merely the tiny territory that started the flare up between Georgia and it's former tyrannical landlord - Russia, but that now it appears the Russians are ready to go after absorbing Georgia itself.
All this because
Georgia likes the U.S. and wants to be part of NATO.
And unlike U.S. military advances that have brought freedom to 50 million Afghans and Iraqis - Russia will likely have no plans to surrender a conquered territory
once they've raped her sufficiently.
