I don’t buy any of the arguments for doing anything in Georgia. Their bimbo government killed russians and the russians want that government gone. You can say great these russian citizens were in Georgia territory. so therefore the georgians had the right to kill them. who cares. they didn’t have a right and the russians don’t have a right. now where are you.

All of this area is solidly inside russia’s zone of influence and has been for centuries.

I would much prefer that the USA use its military to secure our borders than have them flying all around central asia.
