And why would the US choose to start a land war where they are hopelessly out matched? They would leave their tanks at home and send in F117's, B2's and cruise missiles to destroy command and control first, airfields second, supply depots third (the full strike force of the USAF and USN is now available). The Navy can sink their fleet then blockade the ports. The Red Army on the ground is now helpless. The Sovi . . . Russians would have no way to respond either. Play your strengths against your enemy's weakness. Never let him fight the battle his way. Make him fight your way. That is how you win a war, that is why Iraq and Afghanistan aren't going so well. That is why Vietnam was lost.
Anyhoo, this is about very real conflict in Georgia. Not a hypothetical one between the US and Russia
