Ice Station Zebra ?
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
Same Stalinist tactics. These filthy people will never change. How I wish we nuked the hell out of them after WWII and got rid of that collectivist virus for once and all.
While Russia, China, Australia et all continue to extend their search for oil/gas reserves, our greenie morons in Congress still insist that the U.S. be beholden to foreign energy sources by not drilling here at home or offshore.
The Russian Bear’s aggression continues ... Wonder how much in campaign funds the Russkies are secretly funneling to Obozo? — they obviously know that Bammy wouldn’t do anything about continuing Russian aggressive acts.
C'mon now. Nothing to worry about. It's not like they're going that much further than the 200 mile limit.
RUSSIA'S ARCTIC CLAIM 1) North Pole: Russia leaves its flag on the seabed, 4,000m (13,100ft) beneath the surface, as part of its claims for oil and gas reserves 2) Lomonosov Ridge: Russia argues that this underwater feature is an extension of its continental territory and is looking for evidence 3) 200-nautical mile (370km) line: Shows how far countries' agreed economic area extends beyond their coastline. Often set from outlying islands 4) Russian-claimed territory: The bid to claim a vast area is being closely watched by other countries. Some could follow suit

Send three or four Los Angeles-class boats and create a permanent base. Take the giant American flag from any car dealership in the US, and you have an undisputed US footprint in the Arctic.
Yeah, but the good news is that it will all melt away soon due to global warming.
That's the problem. Russia isn't having enough descendants. The men are too busy drinking and invading other countries.
Movie: "The Land That Time Forgot"
"Negotiating an underwater tunnel [beneath the ice] to gain the island's interior, those aboard [German sub] U-33 are amazed to discover a tropical prehistoric world kept warm by volcanic forces. Here dinosaurs that should be long extinct live and roam, as do a curious race of humanoid savages that appear to exhibit all the various phases of Man's evolutionary development. To survive long enough to repair and replenish the U-boat, wartime enemies must put aside their differences and cooperate with one another. But not everyone is playing from the Kumbaya songbook... The Land That Time Forgot is a thoroughly old fashioned sci-fi/fantasy adventure of the type they weren't really making anymore even in 1975. A lot of this has to do with the script sticking to Burroughs' Victorian style. (His Caprona tales were first published in 1918; as late as World War II he'd still be cranking out novels in the writing style of the 19th Century.) The film's a throwback to the likes of the original King Kong and potboilers such as Unknown Island (1948) and The Land Unknown (1957), only in color."

Volcanic eruptions reshape Arctic ocean floor: study
June 25, 2008 | AFP
Recent massive volcanoes have risen from the ocean floor deep under the Arctic ice cap, spewing plumes of fragmented magma into the sea, scientists who filmed the aftermath reported Wednesday.
The eruptions -- as big as the one that buried Pompei -- took place in 1999 along the Gakkel Ridge, an underwater mountain chain snaking 1,800 kilometres (1,100 miles) from the northern tip of Greenland to Siberia.
Scientists suspected even at the time that a simultaneous series of earthquakes were linked to these volcanic spasms.
But when a team led of scientists led by Robert Sohn of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts finally got a first-ever glimpse of the ocean floor 4,000 meters (13,000 feet) beneath the Arctic pack ice, they were astonished.
What they saw was unmistakable evidence of explosive eruptions rather than the gradual secretion of lava bubbling up from Earth's mantle onto the ocean floor.

Russian army trains for Arctic resource war
Russia plans Arctic military build-up
Canada's response is to build two new military bases in the area.
“Footage of the alleged planting was widely broadcast on Russian television but later turned out to be images taken from the Hollywood blockbuster Titanic.”
LOL, sounds like they learned from the Iranians.
Bush is asleep at the switch.
Why don’t we protest this?
What do you think, Barack? What should we do?
