For those of us who have no idea why some raving idiots among leaders feel once again compelled to kill civilians with their outrageously expensive military machines, here's the deal: Georgia (NO relation to the southern US state that fought against the "Union" during the US civil war), basically broke away from the Russian sphere of influence, in order to make a separate deal with the US and other "western" powers, and South Ossetia, one of their provinces, fairly recently broke away from the breakaway Georgia. Since there is a lot of money involved, both the US and Russia are now pissed.
