“How about you post that Russia does NOT use Lebanese ports (they have)”

You were babbling about Cyprus and Russian naval ports. I asked for proof from you. How do you get from Cyprus to Lebanon and then Syria? Forget you.

And you need to put down the beer and realize the locations in that region. Cypress is only just off the coast from Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Turkey, and not all that far from Greece either. Would be an ideal location

Cypress is a location that I might want to control if I wanted to control the countries sea contact and did not have a sea port in the area.

Like I said, just put down the beer and go to bed. Tomorrow you can look on a map of that region and see why I had POSITED my thoughts as to why Russia may wish to have any type of leverage in that region.

Sleep well and hope you don't have that much of a hangover for the rest of the holiday weekend.
