i think a lot of this is still some of the residuals of the cold war, and our foreign policy based on 'if the ussr is for it, we're against it'.
as for the taliban...it's my understand that bin laden and his ilk only looked at us as a necessary evil to rid their country of the russians, and then of course they would deal with us...which is essentially what happened. and yeah, part of georgia wants to break away. georgia wants to be in nato. same old stuff from 30 years ago.

Putin has is carrying a huge chip on his shoulder for
the Russian people. Another great job at assessing personalities ("I can do business with this man") by GW. Seems they are playing bad guy (Putin) good guy (Medvedev). Hopefully this is Russia flexing muscles and leaving. If not... Expect for Poland, Ukraine, etc... to be listed on the fast track for NATO membership.
