Ah, Burke Class. Lots'a AAW, SPY-1; I gotta wonder if they're loaded with the ESSM SM-2's?

Georgia just got a trip-wire with serious protection.

Interesting, yes?

I would that some of this “humanitarian” aid is in the form of weapons to wage guerrilla war against the reds.

Another massive embarrassment for western Europe and NATO. This is happening in their backyard and all can do is sit around bloviating and blaming Georgia for being raped by Russia. Meanwhile, the US is already delivering humanitarian aid and sending ships into the blacksea.

Dallas left Souda Bay, Crete on Thursday with more than 76,000 pounds of relief supplies

75,000 pounds will be olives.

Isn’t it time for some European politician to mock our efforts while doing nothing themselves?

Would you believe that Obama's policy adviser on Russia is named McFaul!

Hey Reds... over here... yeah here we are. Remember when we flew in your face with our military into Georgia, and did not need your consent? Well now our ships are here, with you, and we still don’t need your consent. The one thing we DO need is for one of your missiles to somehow hit one of our vehicles or vessels. PLEASE. Because you mapped all of this scenario out in your puny little red brain, and you think this will all come to stalemate. Well, Putty, the Olympics didn’t shield your actions from the rest of the world. Yes, I know you set a trap for Georgia and they were foolish enough to ignore the US warnings and engage you outside the lines, but you see, these are our friends. You are not. What? You don’t want to be friends anymore? I just told you that you are not our friend, so you cannot use that line, sorry. PLEASE fire a missile our way that actually lands a score. I am so tired of waiting for the word to kick your asses.

What’s to stop the Russian military from simply confiscating these supplies? Once they get on the ground, there’s nothing to stop them from doing so. They have Georgia bisected and from all reports seem to control the roads.
