Wait, what?

QuoteSouth Ossetia'spresident has invited the legendary warriors of the Russian steppe, the Cossacks, to settle in the breakaway Georgian republic. According to PIK TV, Eduard Kokoity told a youth forum last week that he wants to rent out land to the Cossacks for 99 years

Oh, OK then.  That makes sense, I suppose.  Well, as much as anything ever makes sense in the Caucasus.

On the other hand, the Cossacks have fought in every major post-Cold War conflict Russia has been engaged in, in one form or another, so I suppose there is a certain amount of logic to it.

Nevertheless, COSSACKS!

If I was the tiniest weakest shithole in a region full of bigger meaner shitholes, I'd be all about inviting the Cossacks to come hang out too.

Wouldn't that tend to end up like hiring Hell's Angels to work security?

I'm not sure what the absolute cheesiest song ever has to do with anything, but as far as HA working security, well, they certainly kept the potential problems at Altamont under control.

What I'm wondering is if this goes through, what happens in 2111 when their lease is up.
