You're insane. Playing chicken with the world's second largest nuclear power is every neo cons wet dream. Wake me up when you come back to reality princess.

Blitheringly uninformed or nuts. Or both.

In every war fought since the 1960s, American made military equipment did better than Soviet/Russian hardware. Look at the Six Day War of 1967, Vietnam War air combat, and the First Gulf War. These wars were fought at a time when the Soviet Union was spending a fortune on its military establishment and supplying their Middle East allies with their equipment. Post-Soviet Russia has not spent a similar amount of resources to upgrade their military. Despite degradation of the military under Obama, our naval and air superiority is unquestionable.

In this raid, Russia blinked.

So Russia has NO capacity to retaliate simply because you present a pic of rusty old submarines? I suppose they don’t have ICBMs any more; nor do they have the ability to hack our power grid.

We can crush Russia anytime we want; what you moronic war hawks don’t seem to comprehend is that the risk/reward ratio over questionable chemical attacks simply is not worth it.
