"We are all Georgians now" by Senator John McCain reminds us of why conflicts in small, obscure places can have a big impact on the US and the rest of the world.
Mr. McCain, through his considerable international experience and his visit to South Ossetia several years ago, noticed at that time the influence/interference of Russia on the body politic in Georgia. He documents the step up in aggressions, the allies concern and responses and what the US, with its allies should do in the face of aggression against a free, democratic state such as Georgia - and the implications if we all don't.
McCain lays out strong diplomatic, strategic and humanitarian goals to cope with this crisis. He rightfully notes that we are all Georgians in the sense that we hold similar values and principles with this small nation now struggling to maintain its sovereignty.
Mr. McCain shows a depth of experienced knowledge in this piece and a strong, carefully considered approach to this conflict in concert with our allies.
