Russian planes buzzing ships and planes of the US and the U.K. is an existential threat.
Putin is using radical Islam, just like the old days. Communism remains. Putin is KGB first, last and always

This article is insane

Anything written these days by Paul Craig Roberts is insane. You can count on it. He makes Alex Jones seem like a paragon of rational thought.

This buzzing took place just miles from the Russian shore. How is that existential to the USA?

And why shouldn't Russia see a US fleet just miles off the Russian shore as an existential threat.

No fleet off Russia == no buzzing == no threat.

We'd do the same bit of buzzing if their fleet was doing exercises off the shore of New York.

We started this particular game of chicken.

This isn't to say Russia isn't bent on world domination, but all the evidence in this case points to the US.
