No doubt the Viets will welcome them back (sarc.)

Russia's nukes,

Oh, are they going to use them? Against who, now?

Does the US not have any nukes?

gold,

What's been more volatile recently? The price of gold, or the value of the dollar?

oil,

The US has no oil, now?

Any idea how much of "Russia's" oil is imported from the Central Asian republics rather than actually produced in Russia?

and leaderships' willingness to fight?

What about their ability to fight?

They deployed 90,000 troops inside their own borders - 500 miles from Volgograd - for ten years to control less than 1 million Chechens. Five years later they are just starting to get back to strength.

This forum needs less Putinolatry and more math.

What I was getting at Friend is don’t underestimate a foe. And another thing, it isn’t always about how big the dog is in a fight, but how big the fight in the dog is. Think about that, when you compare the U.S with O and those he surrounds himself with at the helm.

It’s obvious by the POS the idiotic American people elected, twice, that we LOST the Cold War.

World Communism is gone—never to return. BUT now we have Russian and Chinese Imperialism! Just as bad and just as unforgiving. China wants the south China Seas, Russia the Middle East and Alaska. This is the Great Game England played so well in the 18th and 19th Century. They are playing the game still while Obama goes into social experiments that have failed before. Look to see more Russian gamesmanship—they will help us when its in their best interests—and work against us when that will help them.
Its a New-Old World we enter—beware the two headed eagle and the flying dragon.

He’s been drawing that line up his crack for a while.
