Now they have war on the internet!

Well, I think the end has started. Russia invades Georgia because Georgia is attacking Russian citizens within its borders, but Russia just made them citizens because they wanted to take back South Osseita...OR...something like that. It think no one is acting well, as often is the case with these things! The issue though is that this suuuuuuure seems like a chilly little conflict I remember from my childhood. One that almost could have gone another way, in no small part due to clashing spheres of influence in the Middle East.

Though US-Russian relations have significantly improved, and the Russians seem to be as capitalist as the best of 'em, the Arab-Israeli conflict has never been settled! There isn't a war there now per say.... other than the Intifada (which some would argue is a war that represents the all the Arabs, the Palestinians are a "thorn" left in the "little Satan") but no one ever made up, well, except for Israel and Egypt but thats just because the US pays them both to act nice.

The US has been backing Israel for ages, and the Soviet Union was basically down for the other guys in the Middle East during the cold war. Now again, the Soviet Union and Iran have relations, and we still love Israel. But do you know who doesn't love each other? Israel and Iran!

Hell no, they hate each others guts. Not all the citizenry I mean, the crazy government folks that get in power in these countries. And, maybe they both have nuclear bombs. We all know Israel does, its like a big secret that everyone knows. Iran may or may not have da bombs but we don't want those two going at it is the point We are all, listen Israel I don't care if she stole your holy land AND your man, don't you go over there tonight! And she's all, the hell I wont! And plus you've got my back, right America? And we're all, ehhhhhh...well, we DID have your back till Russia got all pissed at us....I gotta go see my cousin....and then Israel goes nuts cus no ones stopping it!

Anyway, you get it. Cold war, Middle East, it all sounds too familiar.
