"He’s handing Iran the Bomb why should he care about the chinese and or russians invading our space?..."

He's put the U.S. at enmity with God.

Galatians 6:7:Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

He held Israel of old to a very high standard. How much more will this nation be held accountable for its actions.

This was the warning from Deuteronomy 28:47-50: for Israel. What do you think will happen to this nation if it doesn't repent?

47 ¶ Because thou servedst not the LORD thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;

48 therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies, which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee. 49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

50 a nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young:

“after moving toward the Aleutian Islands, which are controlled partially by the U.S. and Russia. “

What did I miss? I thought the Aleutians were completely US territory, as in part of Alaska. Did Obozo sneak in another concession that I missed?

I wonder how many Virginia-class submarines were shadowing this flotilla obtaining signals intelligence and sound profiles and ready to open up torpedo tubes at the slightest provocation.

Yes, and which country is it of the two that’s flexing it’s military might and threatening its neighbors on a regular basis?

And J. Kerry is busy regurgitating this is not an issue and Iran is basically non-threatening.

Maybe they see a few Chinese war ships and hyper-sonic missiles as no big deal.

It would only take one— with a sufficient war load of weapons.

Neither incident is a provocation.

That is what I took away from the article.

The Chinese definition of it’s territorial waters are completely at odds with maritime accepted lines..

The Chinese aren't the only ones that are that way.

China, in this case.

Well, they are the only ones building islands out of dredged up material in order to claim a wider protection zone...basically all the shipping lanes in the south china sea..plus they are claiming territory near Vietnam because they have a oil rig there....so I give them the boobie prize for hutzpah.

I could picture Reagan putting up with this BS.


And Reagan had Admirals and Generals who were competent and knew how to handle situations like this.

I have little confidence in the top brass POS Obama has put in place.

No - but it's one of those 'how long is a piece of string' questions as to which islands are considered part of the Aleutians. Geologically the Russian owned Komandorskie Islands are the western edge of the Aleutian chain, and so can be included in the group, but they are quite a way west of the westernmost US island and the term Aleutian has often been used by the US simply to refer to the other islands, mostly out of convenience.

Testing. They got the answer they wanted. No response.

What next?
