My father used to tell me stories about Japanese ships picking up scrap metal in Philly before the war and the crew laughing about how they were going to turn all this stuff into weapons.
This article about the russian’s laughing and lording it over the weapons they captured for some reason reminded me of that story. After my father came back from the Pacific with the Marines he would tell that story and always end it with the comment “For all their laughing then, it didn’t end so well for the Japanese”
Me thinks it won’t end well for the Russians either some day.

I have news for you. If it doesn’t end well for the Russians, it won’t end well for us either. I really can’t believe how many delusional FReepers there are these days.
