Archie Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Anybody seeing this shit in the media (internet included)??? There finding U.S. mercenaries training Georgians and U.S. weapons caches in easter europe, whether it is truth or propoganda the effects could be catastrophic... I'm suprised China hasn't already dumped our debt and destroyed our economy overnight... I guess it blows my mind no one on here is talking about it. If this escalates we could see more fucked up shit than the U.S. has ever seen. Maybe this would help some of you realize how serious this situation could be: 1. Outrageous prices on commodities. 2. Daddy loses job. 3. Daddy sells your Vette/Evo/Mustang. 4. You have nothing else to talk about on CR, your life is over. 5. U.S. turns into a police state. 6. Nuclear Holocaust. Remember that the "people" should determine if the U.S. goes to war, not the CIA and the Bush Administration. WAKE UP!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this continues, we'll definitely be seeing the 3rd World War. China has already said it backs Russia. The US has already said we support Georgia. Yay. And guess where president Bush is.... in China. Now would most certainly be the time for China to strike if they're planning on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NATO isn't going to do anything either to force the situation further. Russia has already won and at this point is using Georgia as a proverbial "whipping boy" to flex their muscle. The only thing the U.S. and NATO will do is sit on their hands and talk about a cease fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I agree....unless the Russians are in Atlanta Georgia, fuck the other guys for now. We have more than enough of our own issues.

Anyone who has traveled to anywhere near that region knows the sentiment that Russians hold against countries like Poland, Georgia, ect. There will be more civilian casualties and the controlled media will incite action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're even." Calm down folks. We're headed for a good decade. And no, not because of "The One". Because shit is, and always will be, cyclic.

Guest 614Streets Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 The key event to watch right now IMO is the Ukraine. If Ukraine blocks in russian ships in the black sea and denies reentry to the port russia will strike ukraine and this is likely to cause NATO tosweat bullets. Also the Israelis have Georgian conection. Israel has been a key help of upgrading the Georgian Military especially with joint ventures like upgrading the frogfoot to Hud Via TAM ala the scorpion. I predict the Russians killing the leader of Georgia is very possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonneVille Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 This whole Georgia thing is going to be over pretty quick, I think. Osettia declared their independence, Russia backed them, Georgia attacked Osettia, the Russians followed up on their declarations of support. Georgia's getting their ass whupped, but unless Russia tries to occupy Georgia, the U.S. ain't gonna do jack. We certainly aren't going to go to war with Russia to help Georgia hang on to a separatist region. Now, if Russia DOES move to occupy Georgia, then we got a problem... China, isn't going to be a problem, I think. They certainly aren't going to try to take us on over here. We thoroughly outclass them in the air and on the sea, so their massive numerical advantage on land isn't going to help them if they try to attack us here. Basically, they have the troops to whup us good, but if they try to bring them over, they all end up in the drink. Basically, the worst that is going to happen, and I admit that it is pretty bad, is we get a new cold war... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHaze Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 The whole situation is confusing, yet typical and expected. -Bush says evidence points to Russia moving in to overthrow Georgia. -Russia claims they're just peacekeeping, yet they've dropped bombs on mostly civilian areas. -"Peacekeepers" strategically control nearly half a country they've invaded? Come on Canada, take a stand somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
