Ukrainian troops have joined their U.S. counterparts in NATO military exercises as tensions mount over the aspirations of former Soviet republics to enter the alliance.

The two-week NATO "Sea Breeze" exercises along the Black Sea coast also include forces from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and key countries of western Europe. Turkey, Macedonia and Latvia are also participating. The exercises include naval and air maneuvers as well as large-scale armored exercises.

Separate maneuvers are being held this week in Georgia. Armenian, Azerbaijani, Ukrainian and U.S. troops are participating.

3. Yep, this is why Doofy got sent to the Olympics.

I wonder if he's going to read My Pet Goat to any of the schoolchildren there.

But not to worry, Lord Vader is in charge as always. That Iran thing was gonna be so clumsy. Handy, how this Georgia thing fell right into the laps of those who stand against the evil-doers.

4. After 8 years of their shit I'm still underestimating them

I never would have guessed it was possible that an American administration would be THIS irresponsible. These exercises should be canceled at once to forestall any "oops" incidents and avoid provoking the already angry bear. But no, once again Bush** is going to play his little games and make a bad situation worse.

:wtf:
