"They have employed strategic bombers — the most potent air weaponry that is in the Russian arsenal .... They actually launched ballistic missile attacks on Georgian territory," the official said. He also said Russia has sent more than 1,000 paratroopers and armor into the region.

http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/eu...f=mpstoryemail
TBLISI, Georgia (CNN) -- Dozens of Russian warplanes bombed civilian and military targets in the former republic of Georgia on Saturday, and a Russian ambassador said that as many as 2,000 people had been killed in in the capital of separatist Georgian province South Ossetia.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7552012.stm
Alexander Lomaia, of Georgia's national security council, said the attack was designed to "damage the runway".

Tbilisi said Russia had brought 6,000 troops into Georgia by land and 4,000 by sea in preparation for a dawn raid.

Earlier, Russian PM Vladimir Putin accused Georgia of genocide against the South Ossetian people, as fighting in the breakaway region intensified.

The Georgian government has requested the U.S. government airlift roughly 2,000 Georgian soldiers out of Iraq and back to defend their homeland, an intelligence officer tells ABC News.
how would russia react to us planes dropping off georgian troops?

starts on page 88 under japan, this is a listing of every building operated by the united states military through 2007.

I said there were 37 bases, i meant "installations", look like i was a little off though.

Point was that I don't see why we need all that and like you just said they paid you quite a bit to live there, so i really don;t see how we are helping them, I bet the tourism industry there really likes all the military aircraft as well. And now we are building the same thing over in Iraq.

The real point is that, first, buk is a motel working sand nog. I'd stood stomp his cranium until they had to mop him up.


And then the actual point, the military signs their life (yes, all of it) away saying they will do whatever is necessary to protect this country, which cannot be looked down upon. The problem comes in when you have the commander in chief and the government telling them to go risk their lives when it really isn't anything beneficial to our country. In that instance, I'll speak about it however I wish, which is actually "supporting the troops" much more than someone telling me that the only way I can "support the troops" is to demand they stay in the red zone.

If the time comes where a certain (or many) military people are offended by me paying attention and calling it like it is, then good. It's more than you can say about most Americans who forget there are people still in harms way to this day, and have no idea what it's like to empathize with their own lives and struggling families. From front to back the government and the media treats the military as numbers, dead and gone, and never even mentioned. It's fucked, and I'll say so if I want to.

So when I say, "We get involved in everything, now go die for that ----", it isn't really a diss on the military as I was speaking about the bitchboys who send our people out to do it.

Sorry dude, but I don't agree with that. Going and risking your life for something that has nothing to do with you or the country that your family lives in is ------' retarded in my book. The soldiers aren't doing it for the cause or what's right or any of that bullshit either. They're doing it for the money they get paid. Steve is right, the U.S. military's job isn't to police the world, it SHOULD be to protect THIS country. But money, oil rights, and crooked-*** politicians have fucked all that up in typical bureaucratic bull----- fashion. Getting involved in any type of ---- like this is a mistake, just like the Vietnam war was a mistake. When you send a bunch of young guys into a country to fight over something that has nothing to do with them, against an opposing military force that is fighting for WHAT ACTUALLY EFFECTS THEM, the outcome is not gonna be in our favor. I'm sorry but money isn't everything. Just because you CAN get paid good money to do something, doesn't mean you should do it....ESPECIALLY when you're putting your life on the line because a country and its citizens THAT ARE HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD don't have know how to ------- act or get along with each other. I don't call that brave or heroic or anything of the sort. I call it ignorant and self-serving...and it makes you a puppet for all those rich ****** up in Washington who call themselves politicians

we aren't going to send troops in to fight the russians, thats why we armed the georgians so they could be our bitch, the russians aren't ------- around they are attacking georgia because they are killing the (russian) citizens of a territory that won independence from georgia and is protected by russia.

This is similar to what we are doing in iraq, except they actually have a reason to be there. we won't send anyone there because of the massive casualties that would result, and frankly we have no strategic reason to do that and in the time it would take us to send a fleet over there the russians would already have forced georgia into a ceasefire.

Did you notice you have a motel listed on that list. Also, places like kin red is nothing more than a dock in the water, that is open to japaneese/okinawans. Some of those places you have listed is nothing more than satellites in a field. ----, torri station is 90% Okinawan field. The awase comm station is nothing more than a radio tower. Your research might tell you one thing, my 3 years of living there is another.

Steve, glad we are on the same page. I will continue to do whatever the govt tells me to do in order to protect the country. When was the last time you stepped foot into a war zone? You havent you liberal pile of ----. When was the last time you did anything for the country. Probably never. Whats next Steve, you gonna buy yourself a bicycle to get around?

mind elaborating on this? im a retarded Marine and don't quite get it.

calling it like it is?
What have you called?

Forget there are sill people in harms way?
No one forced them to be there....

empathize...
again, no one is there forcefully, and at the end of there contact, they can get out. People are enlisting, re-enlisting, and actually...the military is paying perfectly good troops to get out...

One of my fraternity brothers is from georgia and he just got back into the US last week. He said its hell over there. Russia is hacking all of Georgias computers and is ------ing propaganda to make them look better. While bombing small towns and killing lots of civilians.

Im glad he made it back to the us, cause this ---- is getting crazy over there.
