Hope we’re ready to back it up - but I know we’re not.
Zero is eventually going to get a lot of people killed, one way or the other.

Yeah, well, so what. Nothing more than little boys going neener, neener on their side of the fence. Rather degrading for the US but perhaps that’s what it was meant to be.

I don't think a couple of Stryker's with a Ma Deuce are going to cause Putin to lose his water, much less his mud. Just a customized version of his BTRs.
This will not even cause him to remove his Ushanka and scratch his head. Of course RU will make hay of it.

It is just a yearly Estonian Independence Day parade. It is held in different cities every year and this year it was held in Narva - third largest city of Estonia. In addition to Estonian armed forces units from Netherlands, Spain, Latvia, Lithuania, the UK and the USA participated. These units are there for a training exercise.
I doubt anyone thinks that the parade is a secret staging ground for a surprise attack on Russia. Maybe the papers just don’t have anything else to write about.

Krosan you are correct!
The unit participating is 3rd Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment out of Vilseck Germany. They’ve been in Estonia as part of a partnership training mission.

Seriously, everyone here needs to get a grip and SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!
Estonia joined NATO in 2004, when George W. Bush was president. If FReepers are going to blame things like this on Obama, please realize that the treaty REQUIRES a US commitment to each and every NATO country. If Russia is going to be pissed about this they should have raised a ruckus in 2004!
