As Russia celebrates 'Defender Of The Fatherland' Day, they had an interesting message on the side of the parade's missiles: "To be personally delivered to Obama."

And the average American Sheeple is completely oblivious to it, more concerned with a gay guy appearing at the Oscars in his underwear.
This comment on the article probably says it best:
The mood in Russia is ugly right now.
"With nightly news showing hundreds of dead Russian civilians in towns across Donbass. I have seen some of what is broadcast, and I can guess just how high tempers are at right now.
They know Kiev Junta was a coup, and it was an American coup, and they know America is 100% in favor of total conquest of Donbass by the Junta. So it is simple for those people to connect dead Russians with the White House.
I myself would not travel to Russia again. I have been a number of times over the years. But not now. I can't hide my accent, and trouble is a sure bet if they can get face to face with a known American. Like I said, the mood is ugly!
During Soviet times, as an American, I was treated like royalty by people and asked to their homes, and to parties. They hung on every word I said, they wanted what American had come to represent. I mean that too. I stayed with families in several cities, they just forced me to come stay at their homes, while my hotel room sat vacant.
This is what America has done with the Russian love for America in the 80-90's. It has been turned to burning hate."
Our allies don’t trust us, and our enemies think they might just be able to beat us.
There are Americans playing hockey in the KHL; have they had any backlash?
I’ve never seen a guy carrying a 20 Megaton ICBM before.
Does he have to have a special carry permit for that?
These people just need jobs.
Saw this one posted yesterday.
I shocked thaw Zero Hedge has staff that have such keen PhotoShop skills.
LOL
No permit needed.
I would point out that it was directly a European Union coup, although Obonghit supported it.
“This is it boys! Nuclear combat toe-to-toe with the Rooskies”

Supposedly, these T-shirts say, "Santions? Don't tell my Iskander!" and "Topols aren't bothered by Sanctions".
I don’t think most Americans have any idea of just how dangerous things are right now.”
Just wait til Obama announces his plan to SURRENDER.
Oh man :))) So what's your point ? Do you think Obama should get tough, move US forces from Germany, Italy and so on to Baltics, Poland, Romania, send military hardware to Ukrainians etc.
Or perhaps, just like in 99.9% of your posts around here, you find deliveries of those damn MREs to Ukrainian army to be “highly provocative”, NATO should be shut down to appease Russia, Putin should be allowed to conquer half of Ukraine because it is “in his backyard” ? You can't really have to both way.
You really do like your strawmen.
Perhaps you should link to any post where I have said that?
OH WAIT, you can’t, you’re just making things up, because you don’t like the article’s tone.
The thing I don’t understand is how easily so many supposed conservatives get sucked in by this one. Conservatives all know that everything our community organizer in chief has touched in the USA has turned to garbage but many of them apparently think that you only need to go five miles past our territorial waters and this same guy and all the losers he surrounds himself with turn into geniuses. We’re going to be lucky if we don’t get pulled into some sort of a stupid atom-bomb war.
That missile doesn’t say USA.
It says Obama.
It appears the Russians understand perfectly what is going on, even if most in the US, and many “conservatives” haven’t.
It’s too bad we don’t have some people marching up and down our streets with t-shirts glorifying our military hardware. At least these people believe in their nation and are perfectly happy to flip the bird to their enemies.
I was in the USSR in 1976; the Russians I encountered absolutely looked up to us, and wanted our friendship. We missed a huge opportunity to cement a good relationship with them, when Clinton and Yeltsin were in office. A real shame, in my humble opinion.
