I can be “surprised” by these developments. However, the intelligence (apparently, so-called “intelligence”) people in the military and state depts must be incompetent.

Surprised by their moves into Hungary, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Lithuania, etc. back in the day.
Can NATO say “duh”?
Unexpected.
History books in the future (if there is a future) will chronicle how NATO toppled effective governments for their own globalist agenda, and let an invasion force walk right in.
Probably the Russians learned EXACTLY how to communicate and avoid our sigint because they read HILLARY’s EMAILS. What an intelligence disaster.
why would NATO be surprised?
Everything they do encourages aggression by Putin’s Russia. Perhaps they’re scared of him. After all, he isn’t little Yugoslavia that they could bomb without any consequences.
NATO, like our emasculated military, is useless to America, but has great value to our enemies.
But they can tell you everyone on my Christmas card list, my favorite web sites, and the time of my morning bowel movement.
How can that be?
I thought NATO was a great military organization.
They were great at bombing old Serbian women with shawls around their heads buying apples at open air grocery stands in Serbia.
Then when the ambulances came. they’d come back and bomb the ambulances.
““Are we keeping up with threats?…Absolutely not,” said U.S. Navy Rear Adm. Brett Heimbigner “
What is with this gay trend lately. Asking the question, and then answering it. Hillary does that constantly and I hate it. “Have I eaten ice cream?,,,, Yes, ive eaten ice cream before”
Its annoying. Howzabowt be a man there admiral. Speak like a an and just say “we aren’t keeping up with threats”.
Germany is now joining attacks on ISIs with the Russians
As are Iranians
Even China is sending some presence
France has announced it will join attacks on “ ISIS” which remains to be seen what they mean, although maybe no coincidence a French jihadist in Syria was killed this week in a “ coalition strike”
Every eu country impacted by the refugee invasion is going to end up backing Putin
NATO is scrambling to keep up as Putin leads
Putin is laughing
I just hope our boys over therecan keep their heads down and not be ordered into confronting the Russians because of an obama vendetta against Assad who did not capitulate to Arab spring
I don’t know why anyone would be surprise about what Russia does, they don’t keep it secret...
They may talk different than we do, but they do tell you what they are doing and about what they are going to do...
WHat can NATO say after it’s war crimes in Libya most recently and Serbia back in the 90’s...both occurring under liberal presidents.
Plausible deniability, they by looking the other way allowed the Russians to go into Syria unchecked to later at a convenient date have a nice regional war.
Russia has been a longtime ally of Syria. They have a strategic port and airbase there.
If anyone is truly surprised by Russia’s actions, they need a reality check.
Good Lord ... haven’t these NATO analysts ever played “Risk” ?
NATO is barking up the wrong tree. While it frets over Russia’s “meddling” along its own border and now in the dangerous Syrian vacuum, NATO is allowing its own homelands to be invaded by rampaging hordes of military aged Muslim males who will soon outnumber the entire sum of NATO’s tiny little armies. And how are our brave NATO “allies” meeting this hostile invasion? By welcoming the invaders with shelter, food, healthcare and welfare benefits. Europe will soon be in a bloody fight for its survival, or else it will meekly surrender to its Muslim invaders because it lacks the will to fight for itself.
Caught by surprise - like when they moved missiles into Cuba?
