Russia Invades the Republic of Georgia. Which Country Is Next?
It's happening again. While the world is focused on Beijing, watching the Olympics, Russia has invaded the Republic of Georgia. This unfolds Russia's plan of reviving the fallen Soviet empire. Best-selling author Joel Rosenberg has the following illuminating insights:
"Some sobering lessons have been learned this week from the Georgia disaster. Among them:
"1. Putin is a new Russian Czar who wants to rebuild the Russian empire and will use force to get his way.
"2. Neither the U.S. nor NATO are willing to be firm in Europe in defending a key ally against violent aggression. No one wants a war with Russia. But we have to do better than this. Such impotence in the face of Russian imperialism bodes ill for Ukraine, Poland, Armenia, Azerbaijan and other Western allies increasingly being intimidated by the Kremlin.
"3. Based on events this week, Israel should be wary about accepting American or European security guarantees in any future peace deal with her neighbors.
"4. A Russian attack on a democratic ally can happen fast, and almost without warning. This has prophetic implications, when you think about the prophecies of Ezekiel 38-39 and a "last days" war by Russia, Iran and a Mideast alliance against Israel.
"5. Russia and Iran want to control the production and flow oil and natural gas in the Caucases. Both want to dominate energy supplies in Turkey."

Have you heard about the moral equivalency Obama - the messiah - made between Russia's invading Georgia and the U.S. "invasion" of Irag! Even a noted liberally- slanted paper thought that to be outrageous!
That is simply atrocious to compare the president of the Republic of Georgia with Saddam Hussein. In the eyes of the liberal democrats, of which Obama is the chief spokesman, the US is always at fault, unless they (the liberal democrats) are in power.
This weak-minded man has just given the Russians an excuse not to pull out.
