Kerry comments on Georgia mutiny
Senator John F. Kerry issued a statement today in support of the government of the republic of Georgia after what appears to be an isolated mutiny.
“It is our understanding that the mutineers have been apprehended and the situation is now calm. Georgia is an independent, democratic republic and any attempt to change the government of that country through non-democratic means is unacceptable. The Georgian people are committed to live in a sovereign, democratic nation and their will must be respected,” Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said in a statement.
According to the Associated Press, Georgia said it had ended a brief mutiny at a military base near the capital and thwarted a plan to disrupt NATO exercises.
The Interior Ministry first declared that the mutiny was part of a Russia-supported plot to overthrow the government, but later backed off and said the plotters were intent mainly on disrupting NATO military exercises set to begin Wednesday, the AP said.
Russia, which fought a brief war with Georgia last year, has criticized the NATO exercises.

Please go on Georgian web sites and see how the truely demoractic government of the Republic of Georgia handled the uprising. They have a great president and government leaders. The Generals are from the old school, just like third world latin american countries where they think guns take over.
Saakashvili is a mad man and needs to see his doctor. This guy is a major danger to the world piece. To have NATO military drills in Georgia to support this mad man is a very bad idea.

I think Bill's right.
Why don't we also just let Russia have Ukraine back as well.
All that "stick up for global democracy" talk is a lot of Republican Hooey.
Now that the election's over, we know who won and don't think any of that "Putin is a threat" stuff will scare anybody either.
It's just all those Bush/Cheney/Rove/Limbaugh types trying to tell us that Barack doesn't have a handle on things. Don't they know they lost the election?
