Putin is trying to provoke odumbo into doing something stupid and is humiliating him at every chance. He had better get it out of his system because I doubt Trump would let it pass so easily.

The greatest threat to Western civilization is the rise of radical Islam. In fact, Islam is on track to actually take down the West, in Europe at least.
Russia and the US should be allied against this major threat. But of course they're not. Better to buzz each other, and call each other names.
Kind of reminds me how the European princes were arguing among themselves as the Turks were knocking down the walls of Constantinople.

Pilot had a “Make America Great Again” hat on.
Russia wants a world with Trump in it. Shove Obamas weakness in Americas face.
Go Trump!

Strange, just yesterday I read about this and "
Cmdr. Dave Benham, a spokesman for the Pacific Command" said it was a safe and professional intercept.
That same article is gone now but Bing shows a couple of links where the same spokesman says the same thing.

The nerve-rattling incident... Nerve rattling? Let me go out on a limb here and assume that the surveillance plane had a clear radar picture of the Russki aircraft before it got anywhere close. If you didn't see it until it was there, no warning, that would be nerve rattling. More like pi$$ed off at the bad manners than rattled.

in an “unsafe and unprofessional manner,” the Pentagon said.
OMG, they sound like a bunch of whiny little prisses...of course, having been in the Building, a number of the folks in the Pentagon ARE whiny little prisses.

Hmmm...a close pass like that, I wonder if/what he was broadcasting.
Lots of sensitive sensors and hardware on an RC-135.
I wonder how hardened that stuff is against an up close and personal, bazillion-watt, sensor trashing blowtorch flying by.

I cant imagine how pist the soldiers must be. How demoralizing having a little pus.sy as CIC. They are working in a hostile work environment and should sue the Feds.
One good shot, let them have one good shot.
