Russia is moving in to Georgia. Is the Big Bear securing it's oil reserves? Are they trying to close the West's access to the Caspian sea? Where will Putin head after Georgia? Is Putin the new Stalin?

These and many other questions have surfaced around the world for a while now. To many of us, Georgia is far away, thus the news are easily downgraded on our scale of importance. And this might very well be Putin's exact calculations - that Russia can go out and grab Georgia with little or no reactions from the international communities.

I hope that reactions will come. That the international community will raise it's voice and tell Russia and Putin that theft is not acceptable. That Georgia will receive support and help on their path to independence and democracy.

In our globalized market, we are all interdependent. That should also mean that we are equally responsible for each other, that we should care and that we need to voice our concerns.

Larko opened my eyes - by pointing my radar to the incident. Thus, I changed the filter mode in my brain, and interesting bits of information started to appear. Some of them are listed below.

I encourage you to spend a few seconds (as a minimum) to consider the questions I pose above. By spending that little investment of your time, you may find that you need to do something more. If you do, please go ahead! Thanks!

• Russian Business Network blog (follows the RBN, also on the cyber warfare on Georgia)
• Huffington Post - interesting considerations from the US Security Advisor for President Carter
• Swedish Foreign minister Carl Bildt on the case
• EU consider reactions

Please feel free to air your voice - and submit other interesting stories on this potentially global security threat! (Yes, I may exaggerate on a short term - but what are the long term damage that may occur?)

This weekend, you can enjoy your IP. Your IP will moan. You never thought it possible (at least I hope so), but your IP will do it's very best to be sexy. 

When you stop laughing (or moan), I suggest you read the small print in the bottom. There is a lesson to be learned!

Enjoy your weekend! 

Larko at Blogwatch.eu made a nice roundup on my blog the other day!

Thank you Larko, I had no idea I had this kind of positive impact! Keep it up, and I will too!
