    Last month, Trump's Secretary of Defense (James Mattis) testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee that he wants to maintain a permanent armed American presence in Baltic nations to prevent a Russian attack.

    That may sound new or extraordinary, but it's just a continuation of the forward-based deployments that President Bush was planning before he left office. Of course, Obama immediately reversed this policy when he went crawling to Putin on his hands and knees to "reset" relations...

    The Black Sea is practically a Russian lake. Russia would be derelict, if they ignored one of our Navy ships prowling around in it.

    I said "practically." Of course Turkey owns part of it. So tell us why Russia should ignore an American Navy ship prowling there. While our rightwing media wails whenever a Russian ship is way off our coast.

    Some people are beyond hope. They get their panties in a twist over silly stuff like this. They seem to be clueless that Russian warplanes fly over the US all the time. And on top of that, they use our military bases to do it. How they have sense enough to drink water is a mystery.

    So there's no real reason (other than technical ones) why Russia can't send a fleet of warships into the Gulf of Mexico.

    I'm afraid I'm not from that land Muscovy which lives only in imagination of Ukrainian nationalists and could you probably show my quote where I purported anything abouy sanctions on The USA or American economy going down?:smile: I hope you are not going to deny that Turkish economy shrank.

    I'd love to see us "buzz" some Russian, Chinese, North Korean, and Iranian ships.

    We suck.

    I haven't seen so much hysteria since yesterday. This is a complete non-issue. Russian spy planes fly over the US out of Travis AFB. It's not a big deal when they fly over our fully loaded military ships in international waters. We fly over Russia.

    Isn't this one of the coolest pictures ever?

    I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy. The problem with it, is that it has no basis in reality. The FBI has found nothing... the press, despite their dogged pursuit, has printed nothing but wild conjecture. You are seething over this election, so must warp reality to conform to your beliefs that Trump MUST be a Russian agent... despite any and all evidence to the contrary. It is truly laughable, for now.

    you can do it as civilized men do , move couple of NATO bases from Germany to Ukraine and Estonia . Muscovite "buzz" is possible coz lives of Muscovite pilots costs less then lives the street dogs in Sweden.

    Wow, very cool shot! Where and when?

    I mean we go to space with them, for decades. Why the sudden High Anxiety over Russians? It's political theater for the masses.

    do you think that Sovok and Muscovy (Russian Federation) is the same? and Putler´s gas-station is as powerful as stalin´s sovok was?
