Brings to mind an earlier post here about nuclear blackmail and how the threat is greatest to second-tier powers that cannot defend themselves and are not important enough to provoke a US response. The lack of a US response in Georgia has to be encouraging to every terrorist with ambitions of getting a nuclear weapon. Watch out Singapore or Germany, you might be next. You now know you really can’t count on the US to come to your defense.
