If there was a sub down there, it’s now Finnished.

Russia flying 2 nuclear bombers near Alaska and now this ?

Putin is testing NATO and America’s resolve.

Russia is exploiting the unrest that is going on here in America with the riots in Baltimore and other cities on the very of riots.

Hope it’s more accurate than the last incident.

On October 31st 2014, retired naval officer Sven Olof Kviman snapped a picture of what looked like a 20-30 metre long, black submarine in waters just outside Lidingö in Stockholm. The incident has remained unconfirmed, but has been classed by the military as a “potential” submarine.

But Rear Admiral Anders Grenstad has now told Swedish newspapers that the Armed Forces reported to the Swedish government last Wednesday that the suspected underwater vessel was in fact only a civilian “working boat”.

“The analysis has shown that the photograph taken in Stockholm’s inner archipelago was of a smaller boat,” Grenstad told Dagens Nyheter on Monday.

According to Grenstad, the picture instead showed the boat “Time Bandit”, a 10.5 metre long, white plastic boat. But the boatman using the vessel on October 31st claimed the Swedish military had not been in contact with him.

If you really want to see the Russians freak out send an American Carrier Battle Group into the North Atlantic.

Reminds me of a joke I heard a while back.

Three guys are in a brothel. One's walking down the stairs. One's running up the stairs. One's in the middle of the act. What is the nationality of each?

The one going down the stairs? He's Finnish.

The one going up? He's Russian.

And the one in the middle of the act? Himalayan.
