The deployment has fueled rumors that Georgia’s sneak attack on Russia in South Ossetia, backed by the U.S. and Israel, was a shot across the bow to warn Russia against interfering in a strike on Iran which could be imminent.
Here we go again. When this incursion first began, I was wondering if Russia was just rattling its sabers. I now believe that Russia, like Iran in the Middle East, is using its position as Europe's largest supplier of oil, to get its way because it know that no other countries there want to piss it off for fear of being cut off. This situation has the potential to turn very bad very quickly.
