To my surprise,

the Ossetian war is either not of interest to my co-contributors, or else my contributions are so boring that they are deterring you all from weighing in.

I would like to point out a few of things about this conflict:

1. Profound impact on global energy markets
2. Profound impact on Russia's willingess to support UN/G8 efforts to prevent weapons proliferation
3. A potentially seismic shift in the way global thermonuclearwar politics are played: the end of unipolarism and the rebirth of open opposition to American military hegemony. What client states, parties, etc. will want to join forces with the Russians?
