God no.
They're in the US' pocket and serve no other reason than to make the US juicy, fat and rich.
Besides their revolution (the rose revolution) being financed by the US (and various Russian criminals in hiding in the UK), there's an ever increasingly scary nationalism growing in Georgia (one of the reasons two "areas" would rather be part of Russia).
Nope. Don't want them.
But, then again, I don't really care for NATO anyways. After they disregarded international treaties and bombed the former Yugoslavia and got away with it, the world has been crumbling around us like a snowman in June.

I think they should, and immediately.
Your thoughts.
That said, I agree with no1marauder that Georgia cannot be in NATO, but it can be in TO. Or the EU.

Georgia is further East than Iran!
And France is one of the greatest countries in the world and Portugal... well... well, Portugal has something going for it too.

Originally posted by shavixmirYes, but Georgia is considered to be in Europe because of its history in the USSR. Russia's in Europe, too, but it extends to the Pacific.

Don't tell that to the French. Their heads are swelled enough as is.
