Georgia asked the United States for planes to bring back its 2,000 troops serving as part of the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq, a U.S. official said.

Can you imagine that phone call?
I'm sure if I talked to Russians about this they would give me a very good explanation for their going to war, but it still seems like just an excuse to grab some of thier empire back, in the same way the war in Iraq seems like an attempt to grab oil.
which is a shame, cus since the end of the cold war the Russians have seemed like pretty decent guys. I confess that I'm worried about where this will end, and recall the Simpsons episode where the RUssians almost go to war against the USA.

One U.S. State Department official called the conflict a "very dangerous situation".

Now aren't you glad that there are great politicians to tell us these things?
