I didn't get that memo----where does it say everyone can just invade countries willy nilly now ?

Its called the doctrine of preemption.. and thats exactly what it does. It justifys invading any country that you perceive as a threat...

To an extent, Yes... A successful independent democratic Georgia that was a NATO member could pose a definite risk to an authoritarian regime. Would it not?

Personally, however, I think they just want to contol the flow of oil to Europe.

I think Jeepers got it right on both counts, frankly.

Of course free men are always a threat to authoritarians...

And yes, of course, free men with oil money even more so.
