Saudi oil fields are next. No, wait. They’re our friends. Even our illustrious president bows down before them.
Americans can’t focus on the developing world to our south while ignoring the invasion of our own country; this is just theater, a distraction from real domestic issues.
The Greeks sent the first 37 Persian fleets to the bottom???

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.
Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.
Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.
