Dear JK, sir.. If you give me permission, i want to laugh... GERMAN ARMY, against mighty RUSSIAN ARMY!!! NO CHANCE, SIR even BRITISH ARMY dont have any chance!!!afghanistan also took a long time , i mean 11 years to make russians go back to masscow ....

Permission granted but with around 2000 Leopard II MBTs I think the Germans would have the last laugh.

As I mentioned in another post the Brits are occupied with Iraq and Afghanistan hence why I thought of the Germans as the next best force in NATO to keep this bear in check.

Their tactical doctrine during the cold war was to be a shield to absorb a Soviet assault until allies responded so I think they could hold their own against the Russians on the ground at least.

NATO v/s Russia

You're right, its going to be a Russia vs Nato kind of thing. Russia is earked by Georgia's desire to join Nato and has full support of Ossetians who were allowed to keep their Russian nationality after the desintegration of USSR. Both Ossetia and Abkhazia want to join Russia but Georgia won't allow it and might ask for Nato's help.

I don't think the Germans would be the best.. your also forgetting Turkey.. i believe it shares a border with Georgia and Turkey is also a party of NATO.

Turkey's Military is also very impressive i would say very much in line with Israel.

 

[EagleEyes]

Nobody wants to mess with Russia. Unless it is attacked. Only USA or China can intervene.. otherwise no one can.

 

[Spring Onion]

Georgia can hardly be described as a "power", particularly when facing off with the Russians.

US[NATO] V Russia

 

[Munir]

The US (and directly meaning NATO) has been actively messing with the borders of Russia. It was a matter of time this would have happened. And now the limit is shown. If Russia is not allowed to put nukes on Cuba then the US should atleast understand that double morale is not wise. I think China must do the same to stop them...

I cant wait for another NATO Russia cold war or stand off and watch NATO leave IRAQ middle east and pakistani affairs... sure if this war escalates it will ease the pressure off pakistan because where as thinking of attacking pakistan as high priority for US president candidates "Liberating Georgia" will be a bigger one..

dont let west propaganda get to you... i have disagreed with russia's previous policies but this time it was Georgia who flamed this war! first they deliberately killed russian peace keepers in georgia and russian/ossetian citizens "1600"!! Russia is not attacking civilians in fact ossetians are fleeing to russia and taken well care..

 

[ARSENAL6]

Whlst this is all happenig what does this mean for Iran ?
Russia may help them to develope Nuke weapons all the way.
I think the US will not get involve with georgia as they don;t want to see Iran as Nuclear state.

I cant wait for another NATO Russia cold war or stand off and watch NATO leave IRAQ middle east and pakistani affairs... sure if this war escalates it will ease the pressure off pakistan because where as thinking of attacking pakistan as high priority for US president candidates "Liberating Georgia" will be a bigger one..

Becareful what you wish for march, we might just end up getting into a thermo-nulcear war. God Fobid

Accourding to Georgian Government 1500 civilian are already killed in the russian attack......georgian Parlament declared state of war against russia, and russian Black sea fleet is moving towards georgia........

Considering the fact that India has a good portion of imports from Russia
I thought you guys will stick up for your fellow ally especially when its wasnt their fault. Its also nice to see in your Icon that you you have a Russian sub that was given to Indian Navy and here you are critising them.
So whats the change of tune cus America is gonna attack Pakistan ?
Wishful THinking !!!!!

Can America confront Russia on Georgia? ​

Arun Kamat
Aug. 9, 2008

Russia is determined to reclaim its lost ground at the end of the cold war. Russia is also determined to use oil as the spearhead of a new and stubborn superpower. The conflict in Georgia is symbolic and a direct challenge to America and in particular to Bush Administration including Dick Cheney.

It was interesting to see Putin and Bush sitting next to each in Beijing Olympics and chatting with each other as Georgian militia battled powerful Russian Army and Air Force. Russian Military action is not against Georgia. It is against United States of America as Georgia is the new obedient political and strategic satellite of America.

Georgia declared a state of war Saturday as fierce battles with Russia military over the breakaway region of South Ossetia entered their second day.

Russia has launched a full-scale military invasion of Georgia, President Mikhail Saakashvili said during a brief news conference Saturday afternoon.

"We are dealing with absolutely criminal and crazy acts of irresponsible and reckless decision makers, which is on the ground producing dramatic and tragic consequences," Saakashvili said.

The million dollar question for the international think tanks is that can America intervene and finally fight a war with an adversary of any real size? Fighting gainst Iraqis and Taliban was equivalent to Elephant finghtingt ants. But can United States really side with Georgia to challenge Russia in its own backyard?

Putin wants American money. Madvadev wants America to understand that Russian territories is not Iraq or Afghanistan. Instigating former Soviet Republics will create chaos and war. At the same time, US should not have expecred a cake walk like Iraq and Afghanistan in meddling with powerbase of a formere superpower rich in oil, gas and minerals.

Does America have the will and resource to fight a real powerful enemy? Georgia needs American military to defend itself agaisnt Russia. Russia perhaps wants America to intervene so that thet can teach Americans a lesson in their own backyard.

George Bush seemed anxious in the olympic opening ceremoney looking at his watch constantly and trying to whisper to Putin. America is overstreched in Iraq and Afghanistan in terms of military resource and busget deficit. George Bush confronts his life’s biggest challenge – can America defend Georgia?

Americans will blink. Georgia is on its own.
