He didn't get keelhauled for expressing an opinion, he got keelhauled for vicious, personal attacks against other posters. Neal and the admin staff have established pretty clear lines, and he stepped way over it. It's a pretty well known fact that Georgia was warned about S. Ossetia but they did it anyways; which in my and many others' opinions gave the Russians the excuse they'd been waiting for. It was a stupid move and I'm not afraid to say so, especially in the context of how the DW hypothetical scenario differs from real world events.
