"Now if he was promised assistance in his attack of S. Ossetia prior to and the attack wasn't solely his own initiative, then he has something really to complain about and it will be years before he can get the big screw out of his back."

Hard to say what was promised or not. It is known that we sent some special forces people over there to train Georgian troops. And we know those troops were the ones used in the assault on East Ossetia. In addition, Georgia was paying hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to McCain's foreign policy adviser and he had given direct access to Cheney for Georgia.

So, if any promises were made, the president of Georgia had every reason to expect them to be solid.
