The US won't send troops to Georgia and Russia knows it, lol. The US is only showing its fist saying they could. But this crisis will be resolved in a diplomatic way. This is a way for Russia to show they are a force to be reckoned with just like the old Soviet Union. They want to be acknowledged a such which until know never really happened. Once that's established, they'll get the area they gained in Georgia, the two cities or whatever that want to be Russian anyway, and then things will go back to normal again until the next time they feel like they need to rustle their sabres to be acknowledged, get something from the world community. Too many countries know that the US can't afford another front, another war to fight right now. They all have something to gain from the weakened status we are in right now militarywise and economically. We got ourselves in quite a mess right now.

i hope the us realizes they cant afford another war right now cause if we do omg is the gas going to hit 10.00 a gallon. not like we can really afford it now. or anything for that matter. i just dont understand why all the problems. why cant people be civil anymore every wants to resort to violence and i dont think it works it just hurts people.
