You are right, we have missiles & programs in development also. The point is the show of force which reflects the fracturing of relations with Russia which results from the attacks on POTUS for trying to maintain regular diplomatic channels, this spiraled out of control like dominoes. We need a cooling down of interchanges. We will need to find a way to coexist with Russia and it won’t be by escalating this flurry of distrust.
We Americans complain a lot and are right to be penitent about our mistakes - but until we produce a Josef Stalin and pull off even just a fraction of the bloodshed, catastrophe, and horror the Soviet Union inflicted in the 20th Century...we should hold our moral high ground proudly.
The Russians have not fully divorced from the Soviet Union and are far less penitent. And the “collapse” was not that long ago. Lets stop pretending the past is behind us. It most certainly is not behind them.
