"Our Asymmetrical Response Is Nuclear Warheads"
"The U.S. is the permanent 'world champion' in the size of its military budget almost $600 billion, which is 10 times more than Russias. Even if we add together the military budgets of the top ten countries in the world, they would not reach the American budget! Now it turns out that even that is not enough for Donald Trump. He intends to increase defense expenditure by $54 billion. This money would be enough to maintain five Polish armies. Or 10 Ukrainian ones.
"The American public is already grumbling at Trump, who prefers guns to butter." But cunning Trump understands what his trump card is: He is 'buying' the support of the army, as well as of military industry corporations.
Former Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Army Yuri Baluyevsky is certain that 'the idea to increase defense expenditure was presented to Trump by the U.S. military, who argue a lot about the power of the Russian army, realizing this is an opportunity to get new money.'
But how will Moscow react to the growing military budget of the U.S.? Baluyevsky answers: 'Russia will not compete with the U.S. in defense expenditure. We are in a different weight class. For us, the main question is how to ensure Russia's defense at a lower cost. I am sure that we have already found asymmetrical responses. I don't see a big problem here.'
"What are these mysterious 'asymmetrical responses' that our politicians and generals speak about so often? Maybe it's a myth or a pretty turn of phrase? No! Our asymmetrical response is nuclear warheads that can modify their course and height so that no computer can calculate their trajectory. Or, for example, the Americans are deploying their tanks, airplanes and special forces battalions along the Russian border. And we are quietly 'seeding' the U.S. shoreline with nuclear 'mole' missiles (they dig themselves in and 'sleep' until they are given the command)[...]"
"Oh, it seems I've said too much. I should hold my tongue. In short, we have something to provide an 'asymmetrical' (and cheaper) response to the Americans."
But if Trump has money to burn, let him spend it on weapons that the U.S. may never even need. And they say Trump is a good businessman..."
well it would be foolish to do all the seeding loudly - god this dumb idea
Wow, what a great graphic.
That would work for a first-strike. LOL!
This doesn't sound "asymmetrical" to me. This sounds very expensive - like as much as their entire military budget!
You’ve got me beat: I’ve only seen it on video :-)

Wealthy cities along the coast, inland poverty pockets & concentrations of out-of-wedlock births and EBT card users.
George Carlin once observed that term sounded like a branch of the armed forces: The ARMY. The NAVY and....The SMITHEREENS!
Great Band!
Only took seven posts to get to this. Excellent.
I love Freepers.
It’s more polite than blowing them to kingdom come.
ROFL maybe the guns were made of Kryptonite :-)

Warning now!
I have used some real Russian words/language and the Cyrillic alphabet in this montage.
You might be investigated for using real Russian words and the Cyrillic alphabet and end up in a salt mine some place with me.
Depends on the exchange rate for Rubles. Also, my daddy (who passed in 1980) was born in Moscow in 1907 and was a witness to the Russian Revolution. If they didn’t get HIM then, they’re prolly not gonna get us now.
