... "After tens of years of peace, that peaceful period after the Cold War is now over," Defence Minister Tomasz Siemoniak told reporters in Zagan.

"Because there are more and more crises erupting around Europe... It's not only the Ukrainian and Russian crisis but also ISIS and a number of different crises in northern Africa," he said, using an acronym to refer to the jihadist Islamic State group.

Sadly, he’s correct. Putin is just one malicious actor out there exploiting the situation. I know he has an abiding and loving cadre of fans on this site, but Putin makes it even more difficult to have peace and security in the world. For example, his weapons sales to Iran and Syria embolden both of those thugs states.

A bunch of warring little tribes with ‘downsized to feed the muslims’/”America will deal ewith it” Military machines are going to get a verrrrry brutal lesson in the way of the real, not liberal world.

Hopefully we don’t abandon Poland like we did everyone else. The rest of them deserve what’s coming. They engineered it themselves afterall.

Russia not acting as responsible nuclear power: NATO commander
Asked whether Macedonia and Montenegro should be invited to join NATO at an alliance summit in Warsaw next year, Breedlove said that while the countries were ready in military terms, the decision to invite them would ultimately be political.

Macedonia and Montenegro want to follow in the footsteps of Albania and ex-Yugoslav Croatia, which joined NATO in 2009, and Poland's defense minister said that the two countries should be invited next year.

Due to this white house and their failed foreign policy .

One would think that after these last few years of seeing us ignore the world and become isolationists is a failure anf yet there are still people who will vote for their man or woman who wants this while reducing our military.

Europe has been at peace since 1945 thanks to the presence of the American GI - the greatest peacemaker the world has ever known. And that is a fact!!!
