GORI, Georgia - Russia sent hundreds of tanks and troops into the separatist province of South Ossetia and bombed Georgian towns Saturday in a major escalation of the conflict that has left scores of civilians dead and wounded


If he is writing this from Gori then he is a liar. Gori is like 30km from Tskhinval, it's a town where Stalin was born.

We don;t diddlying care what some morons think. We have a goal and means to reach it. C'mon do something about it. You can bark as loud as you want, the caravan will keep going.

think we have around 100 advisors there.  We have given/sold some items but nothing major.  I am actually kinda shocked some are using m-4,m-16s.  I think in that environment the ak would be a better choice.

You use 45% of your armed forces to pretend you control a country of 11 million. So far you are somehow successful only raping third world countries strangled by international sanctions like Yugoslavia and Iraq.

You are absolutely insane if you seriously think your regime can afford a full-scale conventional conflict with Russia.

If you think a full scale war between the US and Russia would leave anything but ruins, perhaps of the entire world, your renewed delusions of grandeur are pathetic.

Boroda I notice your posts never go beyond 3 sentences.

Why is that? Government censorship? Personal fear of the secret police should you blather on?

Cant be your English, which seems fine. But you always sound like your reading the front headline of Pravda.

Im just wondering, no offense comrade.

I said: conventional.

What you said saves us from "democratisation" US style.

I know what you said. The war in which nukes were used started out as a conventional war. It would be the epitome of foolishness to believe a full scale "conventional" war wouldn't escalate to a no holds barred fight.

I posted news in real time with some brief comments. Now I just answer. Not much time, one day vacation, I prefer my girl and tasty drinks to political bullpoop and/or waving a Red Banner :) I didn't watch TV today. Just cooked some food and mixed some drinks.

Here is a map of the current theater of operations for you guys:

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed because no one knew what this bombs really were.

Even Hitler didn't use poison gases full-scale at the front line.

MAD is a brilliant solution.

Hmm maybe you're right: Russian military doctrine supposes using nukes against anyone who invades Russia or it's allies. We can't afford conventional forces like USSR, that spent over 60% of it's GNP on defense.

Seem to remember Boroda getting on his high horse about collateral damage in the bombing campaign against Serbia...

It seems the Russian fly-boys have difficulty targetting military assets too.

I see it like this. The US and Russia have never engaged in direct full scale hostilities. If we did, which side do you suppose would be inclined to surrender or admit defeat without using all force at their disposal? I suspect neither.

Oppenheimer and the rest of the Trinity team damn well knew what they'd do. They lobbied to have the bomb "demonstrated" on an un-inhabited pacific island, to demonstrate it to the Japanese. In the end, even with all of the people that did get killed, the conventional invasion would have killed many times more-and a high percentage of those would have been americans.

Hitler himself may have been influenced by the injuries he had received on the Western front as a(n) corporal during WW I. However, he didn't seem to have any qualms' about the usage of Xyclon-B in the gas chambers. And...

...MAD only works' when sane people are in charge. It seems' like there's quite a few batshit-crazy SOB's in power in the nations' of the world today.

You have a problem telling a bomb strike from a street fight. Fire at a 4th floor in a 5-stored building isn't a result of an air strike. Is it understandable?... All I saw there was a staged apartment fire.
