Stink, the Cold War’s back on.

re the Cold War as a Texan would say “all hat no cattle”
How do you mean? The US is weakening, but Russia’s position is growing stronger, no?
I think USA ‘put Georgia up to it’to a degree at least such that the rhetoric was tough but not backed with appropriate action to support their aggressive puppet leaving them out to dry when the Russians struck back very aggressively leaving the Russkies to give Georgia a spanking. Very similar to Bush #1 putting the Kurds up to rebeling against Sadam at the end of Desert Storm then not following through with practical support when Saddam retaliated against them. In summary being close friends with the US is fine but don’t be unduely encouraged when they suggest you throw of the yoke of the oppressor.They are dangerous friends!
