I do agree, we do have to demonstrate our ability to be an ally. We don't have to demonstrate our ability to turn a blind eye to regional history and politics, in favor of our own "spin" of how we'd like to see the world. I think this would serve our interests much more. This "spin" smacks of dishonesty and self delusion to me.
I think diplomatically Georgia fucked this up, it puts us, their friend, into a very tough position. I suppose if it were up to me, I'd put the mailed fist that we have into a velvet glove more often then have been. What if the "Ohians" had been living in Ohio since before our alphabet was invented by traveling monks?
