People need to exam all the pipeline deals happening around the world and the war between countries to control the resources.

I wish journalists had the nerve to report the truth as the answers are just a click away.

Here is why we care about Georgia..yes, America and others want a pipeline to be built called the Eurasian corridor which is America’s attempt to shut down Russia’s pipeline to Europe. The Europeans are obviously tired of being controlled by Russia’s natural gas. Remember their struggles last winter with Russia?

Here is the article…follow the oil and the money. Wherever there is oil, you will find America involved.

For everyone interested in finding out more on this. Please click on the link I provided on yesterday’s post.

Why is Cheney in Georgia with a 1 billion dollar check in hand? Conventional wisdom says that it is to rearm Georgia to resist the “Russian Bear.”
Wait a minute! The two countries South of Georgia are Armenia and Azerbaijan and immediately to the South of these is…Iran! From Tbilisi to Tehran is 550 miles and to Natanz, a major center of nuclear developments, it is about 700 miles!
So, take your eyes of Ossetia, Abkhazia, and Putin because the 1 billion dollars are only the beginning of largess’s to bolster demands that we will be allowed to have military airfields, rocket launching sites, and possibly even atomic warheads in Georgia, ostensibly against Russia but in reality also against Iran.

At this point they could care less what happens to America.

Because they believe, America is set to vote for a continuation of their regime under John McCain.

Can you imagine after all these years of Bush, and his criminals gutting America, it looks like his regime will continue with McCain at the Helm.

A Billion dollars, US, really isn’t all that much when it comes to buying armament and weapons of mass destruction. Yet, the meddling administration of the shrub, has to leave a legacy of screw-ups and foibles for the next president.
History will not be kind to this president, the shrub has made mistake after mistake on foreign policy, and he cannot avoid the idea of “sticking it,” to the other guy.
The other guy in this case is Russia, mainly because the advisory staff of neo-cons, who really should be convicts, are still fighting the Cold War. No one on the shrub’s staff, has any right to disagree with the brains of the outfit, Karl Rove and Dick Cheney, otherwise known as the emperor and Darth Vader.
I can just hear the conversation around the Oval Office, “George, George, I am your father.”
Theirs is a tangled relationship going back many years and without doubt the make-up of foreign policy has a lot to do with the fact that America cannot seem to keep their nose’s out of other places business, mainly due to oil and other carbon-based sources of energy.
I would like to say of the Gang of Five that have run this country for the past 8 years, that this is the worst abomination before G-d, that has ever occupied the White House and furthermore we the American people are the one’s paying the prices for the “lofty ideals” of spreading democracy throughout the world. All this done by the barrel of a gun.
Give peace and diplomacy a chance. Vote to elect Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich D, Ohio, president.

As a libertarian and Ron Paul supporter, I have to point out the sheer idiocy of our interventionist foreign policy. What business is it of ours to choose sides in a conflict between Georgia and Russia? And what business does the government have in sending a billion dollars in stolen taxpayer loot to Georgia?

Isn’t it marvelous how easy it is to spend stolen money?

Observe also how this money is sent to the far side of the globe on the whim of the executive branch. When did we ever authorize such power in the executive?

Non-interventionism is the only way to avoid getting sucked into these endless quagmires.

I posted this link on another thread, but it belongs here too.

Re: jackpine savage

Your comment: “That’s a pretty neat trick: first you get some other country to give you a bunch of military aid (so long as you promise to buy more); then you start a war that you cannot hope to win; then you get another $1B from the same benefactor because you got your ass kicked.”

Remember jackpine, only ONE faction of the power wants to win, the other faction wants perpetual war.  Although they BOTH would like to see America on it’s knees in hopes that they would be the victor in this “calamitous” situation.

Your right, Dihey, Obama supports it too.

how do you know it was initiated and came through biden? do you have a source?

That’s a pretty neat trick: first you get some other country to give you a bunch of military aid (so long as you promise to buy more); then you start a war that you cannot hope to win; then you get another $1B from the same benefactor because you got your ass kicked.

Ah well, at least we have a new(ish) enemy…the whole terrorism thing never really did it for me anyhow.

When our own country is struggling, the Repubs cooly hand over a billion dollars to a country consisting of only FIVE MILLION PEOPLE.  What the hell is wrong with Bush & Cheney????

This is unacceptable.

Do not blame Biden only. Apparently Obama supports the 1 billion dollar giveaway.

The money, initated by Biden, includes military equipment.  It is being used to rebuild the Georgian army, since most of the civilian occored in the enclaves.  The British papers lie aboout it to deceive the British population who are against American aggression.

totally cynical… and just in time for dick! it’ll help calm down the masses which may not be feeling as friendly this time round. nope, won’t catch dick saying “so..?” to some startled reporter in georgia. he only gives the finger to the AMERICAN people.
