I usuallly agree with you on most issues but not this one......even if we didn't have wars in Afghanistan and Russia - you honestly believe that USA would get into a full blown conflict/warfare with Russia in order to protect its ally, Georgia. Wow. The world must be a video game then....that we all play in

Yes I think we might. Russia cant hold a candle to us military wise.
If being in the Army spending a tour in a Fire base in Afghanistan was playing video games than I played video games lol.
I am no neocon Bill Oreilly lets go to war type person but Russia would be DEVOURED by us.
You grossly over estimate Russia's military as far as working equipment and how up to date it is.
# I was just an E4 so no General lol but I wasnt playing video games either .
Well this is results from non humble foreign policy.If we had not chosen sides in the middle east we wouldn't be in Iraq and nether would Georgia.If we had not chosen to expand NATO after the cold war we would be neutral to Russia and Georgia.
We make alliances that commit us to war without thinking things out.

The analogy to Germany and Poland is tired and flawed. Poland was not a former republic of Germania right before 1938 nor does Russia possess a paralleled thirst for expansion. Germany/Hitler/USSR/Stalin is just good for shock value.
Ummm, Poland WAS formed from German territory as well as Russian and Austrian land after WWI.

Point taken, but partitioned is the key word here. It was not a wholly owned subsidiary of the Prussians.
Doesn't matter anyway because the Hitler analogy is a ludicrous statement only used by those who wish to make a case for war, regardless of how ill fitted the parallels are.

Wow. I haven't been in the military and all that but some stuff does make its own sense. You honestly believe USA might/could/should/would've gotten into a full blown conflict with Russia because the Russians invaded Georgia, our ally (population about 4 million), , which is thousands of miles away from us. Hahahahha......i am not gonna say more.
