he's an insane man who wants to grab power. he's not insane at all. he has done this several times before. in south osettia, in abkhazia. send in penal who are loyal to those places. you have them put facts on the ground. you push out the local forces and then you create little states that are really russian states and try to get the world to recognize it. he's done that successfully in the past. nobody kicked up a fuss when he did it for abkhazia. >> was it particularly successful on the world stage, but got him what he needed to get. >> those territories, we say they're part of georgia. georgian troops cannot go into abkhazia or south ossetia. >> embarrassing in its own terms
