However, the consequences of unchallenged Russian aggression in Eastern Europe could easily eclipse any of those events you mentioned.

Of course what McCain fails to mention is Georgia was the aggressor and Russia responded to their aggression. I'm not saying Russia was right to do what they did but Georgia is not innocent at all. In fact, the closest example of this happening in the past was when Saddam invaded Kuwait and in response the US invaded Iraq. Anyway it is irrelevant to the fact that he is claiming that Iraq 1 & 2, 9/11, Afganastan, Darfur, Sudan, Kosovo, and many others were not serious.
