I am no record in saying that any comprehensive settlement will involve Georgia giving up Ossetia and perhaps the other province as well. But that does not change the fact that the Russians violated the borders of a sovereign state by invading Georgia proper. Its unclear who started what but the its very clear that the russians were looking for an excuse. This aggression shouldnt stand. By the way, what about the georgians who lived in ossetia who were driven out of ossetia, now never to return? PS i think you and bush have about the same intelligence. I am not impressed by you even though you apparently are a very self important type of guy.

US dollar and perhaps securities now favored by GS. I was six months early on this call. I would have gotten killed if i had acted on it. Thats why as a seer, i choose not to invest on my hunches. lol Goldman Sachs abates the bear By Alex Peacocke August 15, 2008 The Goldman Sachs Group Inc., the New York investment banking giant, is abandoning its bearish stance on the dollar. Citing stabilizing U.S. growth, falling oil prices and a grim future for other world economies, the bank is changing its 10-year-old policy stance, according to an internal Goldman research note obtained today by Thomson Reuters of New York. “The valuation- and growth-driven improvements that we have been observing for a while have reached the point where they notably improve the medium- to long-term outlook for the dollar,” the note said. It added, however, that the dollar could still face short-term challenges because of its market position and weaker consumer spending in the United States.
