If you're interested in what's going on in the Georgia/Russian conflict that's sprung up this week, there's an excellent piece by James Traub in the New York Times that really explains a lot. It's not short (probably taking about 20-25 minutes to read), but tripled my understanding of the political situation that led to this week's hostilities.
If you really want to understand the conflict, I highly suggest pieces like this, because if you're waiting around for CNN to spend half as much time on this war as they do on the personal life of John Edwards, it's going to be a disillusioning experience.
