I really don't know. The only thing I know for sure, Putin and Medvedev have a serious will to get Saakashvili and punish him for war crimes (perhaps in Hague). They also want to show everyone that murdering of Russian citizens will not more be tolerated. Russia is not the same as it was 15 years ago. The country have enough power to do that. I strong believe that no one is going to join Georgia to Russia. Georgia is not the target, but Saakashvili is.
So.... There could be many possible scenarios. I also think that USA have set up Saakashvili and will use this situation to start a war against Iran. They already re-grouping their forces in zone of the Persian Gulf. Do you know about that?
When I'm reading the news, I'm trying to see the real goals of all the participants for a near future. The USA is a participant, and course they were planning this and will use it for their own purposes. Georgia is not so important for them right now. Their real target is Iran.
Everything above is 100% IMHO of course. I'm not a Nostradamus
