Somewhat misleading.

An ADIZ extends well beyond what the general public would consider “US Airspace”

Quite right. But a working knowledge of things military is not evident in the media anymore either. Sensationalism is more important than substance.

Understand your point, but Russia is clearly sending a message (and its not a hashtag). They are well aware of America’s receding power under this president and know that Obama has no resolve. They may well be calculating that he is unlikely to respond to ANY provocation.

Can you imagine Obama adopting a strong stance or retaliating against any aggression? He is weakness personified.

true. And during the cold war year, the reds routinely entered the North American ADIZ. Just the Russians playing the same old “tweak the eagles tail feathers” game they always have.
