Russia of course denies the report.

1. Ulp...

Another war?

:scared:

3. Another war??? Are you kidding??

A giant super power like Russia up against a small country like Georgia.

It might take Russia 6 days to secure Tblisi, maybe 6 weeks. But, I doubt it'd take 6 months.

Within a year they'll be naming the main square after Vladi Putin and most new borns will be named in honor of Putin.

4. That remains to be seen...

Chechnya has done a pretty good job of holding out, even after having Grozny leveled twice. Given the long history between the two peoples, I would expect the Georgians to fight an insurgent war, which apparently no superpower is equipped to fight.

5. Ummmm...

I was using quotes from rummy and wolfowitz...
It was a joke

[junkiebrewster]

6. Oh, OK

Well, that's kinda funny then.

[shenmue]

7. ???

I was trying to say it was a bad thing.

Don't know why that caused any confusion for you.

:dunce:

8. There was no confusion

I was channeling rummy and wolfowitz at the time
