yeah for real. Lets go pretend like we are going to save the world, then make things even worse as we usually do. US just needs to stay outta shit and concentrate on our own damn problems (trust me, we have MANY despite popular idea that we do not).

It seems that US is trying to diplomatically and politically isolate Russia... Cold War 2 is pretty much going again.

yeah well we are damned if we do, damned if we dont. People bitch if we get involved and bitch if we dont.
Seriously tho, despite the fact that we cant really ignore peoples problems, its such a sad fact that we spend so much time and money on international affairs when our country has so many of its own. (yes I do realize we HAVE to be involved in international affairs, that is not what I am saying here.)
dont let the MTV cribs-type shows fool you, shit is going downhill quickly here. (again I understand we have a better life than many MANY countries, I am not naive, but seriously, we have huge issues that need to be taken care of that are getting ignored.)
/back on subject of georgia.

Any money says it's just stray fire. I can't imagine (unless they were firing three kilometers away through a wind tunnel) it grazing her arm like that.

^ Their intention was not to kill her. It was to scare them. Trust, they hit her right where they aimed at.
