Russian radar detected two ballistic "objects" that were fired towards the eastern Mediterranean from the central part of the sea on Tuesday, state-run news agency RIA quoted the Defence Ministry as saying.

Think again Pen, not just testing...Israel doesn’t do that when tensions are on the line as they are now. They have a purpose of communicating clearly...do not mess with israel...and even moreso for Israel knows the US cannot be depended on.....THEY are surrounded by nations who want to destroy them there...we are an ocean away....
They have just shown the nations they are armed and willing to follow thru on what they have stated....and no doubt they will.
I personally think BO will strike..Ignite the ME into all out war......and I believe other nations will retaliate....it’s quite possible Israel will go for the jugular and flatten Damascus with one swoop....
Obama's going to hang Kerry out to dry, somehow, after he serves his purpose. That's what Obama seems to do with those not in his inner circle.
.. play traitør games, pay traitør prices ..
Kerrys “role-playing” as he always does...whatever puts him up front and significant at the moment. He wants the credit and you can’t claim credit for taking out a dictator until you do it.
We all know he changes on a dime...whatever the wind blows in he will position himself favorable to the moment.....right now he sees Assad as the target..when indirectly it’s really Iran ....neutralize Syria and you Iran has lost it’s right arm in that corner of the world.
As for as the Politicians taking whatever position....it will be with their own future in mind....certainly not our nation...nor it’s people IMO.

Amid contradictory reports Israel, U.S. carry out joint missile test in the Mediterranean. Russia had detected the launch of two ballistic ‘objects’ toward the sea, Russian media reported earlier; U.S. Navy earlier denied having any involvement in the launch
Israel and the U.S. carried out a missile test in the Mediterranean sea on Tuesday, Israel’s Defense Ministry said in a statement, amid rising tensions in the region over the crisis in Syria.
The confirmation came after morning reports indicated that Russia had detected two ballistic “objects” launched toward the eastern Mediterranean from the central part of the same and a U.S. denial that its navy had been involved.
The Arrow III missile defense system was tested with a “sparrow” missile, which simulates a ballistic missile, and is launched from a plane, during the exercise.

That is ms Maggie doing all the heavy lifting! I just opine and ask questions...lol.
True that! I just worry about escalation with Russia in theater. Things could quickly get out of hand, One thing IS certain, Barack Obama does not have this country or Israel’s best interests at heart.
I hesitate to create links to what I found.
But you can just search the web with terms like
f-22 shot down
and find some chatter.
Radar isn't necessary for that function.
Russia is not required, Pen, to defend Syria ‘Militarily’ with it’s own men on the ground....so it will simply be Putins call how far into this he goes...but the situation got out of hand long before this...IMO obmas red line told them just how far they could go so no surprise it was crossed....he double dared them like a bully would and they simply stepped over it unafraid...three times no less!
IMO Russia’s eyes are on taking a huge swipe on Israel once the US and Israel has been distracted deep enough into Syria....(and Iran and Turkey along with him)....and I won’t be surprised if Israel levels Damascus...someone IS going to use this to volly something at Israel....bank on it.
We are at war IMO....just a matter of who fires first...and it looks to be US.
The Globalists rarely do....they look at a far bigger picture of where they each will be seated at their round table...and country with the most assets and such win....I think US will become the 'worlds military apparatus' and have no choice in the matter...at least until other countries have caught up or it's all shipped over seas... Didn't Bohener say several times..."Only the United States" has the capacity...and that's because it isn't the jihadists on the ground thats the issue now...it''s the idea "first strike Obama" knows that could set off the entire explosive area into all out war.
Amen Maggie is the best.
this is just a test to see reactions...
