Russia and Georgia Clash

Please look at this story.  “Earlier in the day, Russian troops and armored vehicles had rolled into South Ossetia, supporting the breakaway region in its bitter conflict with Georgia.”  The reason this development concerns me is that John McCain has adopted stiff rhetoric toward the Kremlin advocating for their removal from the G8 in a foreign policy speech.  Also, the Cold War may have warmed up by now, but the tension is still remaining especially with an old hawk like McCain.  I understand the tough talk toward Russia, because their human rights still need improvement and they have fallen from super power status as China rises.  However, a more diplomatic approach is needed to prevent another Cold War.  It’s a little bit of a leap to assume another Cold War is coming, but NATO and the United States have condemned troops entering Georgia and it is definitely concerning.  Leave a comment, I’d like to know what your thoughts about this.
