Here's my "monday quarterback" analysis..
1. Saakashvili thought that for some reason Putin wouldn't intervene on SO behalf? this points to stupidity?
2. American & Israeli trainers were urging Saakashvili not to do this yet he did which points to stupidity?
3. Roki tunnel is the only way for Russia to have brought in the overwhelming ground forces (58th army) yet it was not bombed and closed? stupidity again?
4. Saakashvili initiated a conventional ground action with a far superior opponent with no Air support (against Israeli advice), stupidity?
5. Played right into the hands of Putin who is itching to teach west a lesson on Russia's near abroad (Ukraine, Azeris, Balts etc) to payback for Kosovo.
Conclusion: Saakashvili is not of sound mind and therefor should not be supported by US despite what happens.
and another fact about the Tu22 Backfire shut down by Georgians, supposedly it was done with Ukrainian S-200 missiles..(Ukraine is in deep @$#t now) There's no way the black sea fleet is leaving Sevastopol now.
