The couldn’t hit the side of a wH much less a mosque...
You’ll bet your life, and all of ours, on that?
And we have the pansy-ass Obama as our CIC.
Yea, but we have CONTRACEPTION covered in our new healthcare plan. Try to beat that with a couple of bombers that are only able to level HUGE American cities (with bombs that likely work).
AMAZING that some people on THIS SITE think we should ignore them, or even worse, START A WAR against them in Ukraine.
They probably could hit the side of the White House. Either way, it is a moot point, they could land 5 miles away and the damage would be the same, complete destruction.
They think Ike and McArthur are still on active duty, there are 13 million men under arms and there are still 6,768 ships in the US Navy.
Stoopit article.
It’s real premise will be the follow up articles, linked sites and stealth sister sites.
The goal is the elimination of Newk yoo Lar weapons.
It is, after all, a M.A.D., M.A.D. world...
Should we make a “red line?” I wonder where we will lock our heels into the ground. I do not think the Ukraine is a good place, but it is scary to think about where we should. Western Ukraine, Lithuania, ..... Poland?
What? Our guys don’t do the same with training missions? Russia has enough problems to worry about than destroying America and western Europe. Neither side will be able to claim Victory. Ever think, maybe he is taunting us into another arms race where we will spend billions and trillions and fall apart like the USSR did?
The only reason the Russians are being so bold.
Reagan proved they were nothing but bluff and we need someone like him to stem the tide of Russian aggression.
Putin’s calculus must revolve around whether or not a first strike would be answered or if the target would go into survival mode. I have no confidence that our current “leaders” would not cave in with several tens of millions killed in a Russian first strike. If Putin spares Washington D.C. his odds are pretty good.
I don’t think there’s much danger of that with the current crop of candidates (Hillary, Fauxcohantas, Jeb, Milt, Krispy, etc.) do you?
“The couldn’t hit the side of a wH much less a mosque...”
They don’t have to - they only have to come “close”.
I'd say there's an even chance of touching off such a conflict in Syria. The Russians have always been dead serious about backing that regime. If Obama intends to use the current situation to embroil Assad's government in some contrived incident, we will be lucky to just lose a few F-18s.
As far as the general alarmist tone of the article, though, all I can do is yawn in response. I'm old enough to remember when those turboprop Tupelovs came calling regularly and our fighters would help the Bears find their way back home. I'm sure that people who began paying attention to the world around them in, say, the mid-1990s or later probably think this is horribly provocative, but to an old Cold Warrior like me, it's just the same old cat and mouse game. Perversely, there's almost something comforting about it. Like a long-delayed return to normalcy, or something.
During much of Bush 43's presidency, Russia went running to the UN for help when it felt the need to oppose us. Now, with the weakest American chief executive the world has ever beheld, the Russians are suddenly in-our-face? Gee, who could've predicted that?
I doubt that Putin really wants to fight us, but he can't stop himself from kicking sand in the 90-lb. weakling's face. He enjoys it and it plays well at home for him.
Yes, I remember in my crazy teenage years the dulcet tone and DF spikes of the MUSHROOM radars on those critters. They were a pain because you could pick them up 500 miles out which meant you had to track them for the next two hours instead of looking for Snoop Pairs. You also had to keep the JOOD from going to GQ.
I don’t think there’s much danger of that with the current crop of candidates (Hillary, Fauxcohantas, Jeb, Milt, Krispy, etc.) do you?............................. I’ll just wait and see who the Biased Media decides to back as the Republican Party Candidate. Who knows maybe they’ll pick a winner this time??? First of all, we have our first black American President, so now the country is ready for our first woman president. Don’t worry about the small stuff, either woman will see to it that Putin is put in his place. If either of the women win, listen to the roar coming over the north pole from Russia, it won’t be bombers, it will be laughter from the Kremlin.
