And our torpedoes would always hit the Russian submarines in the stern.
Uhm, nope.
They haven’t the numbers nor sufficiently fielded numbers of subs to make a dent in us and they are way behind us technologically.
Previously, it had been a part of the Russian Soviet Republic. During the 1930's, Stalin had the ethnic Turks and Tatars from the Crimea exiled to central Asia and they were replaced by ethnic Russians. The Crimea had been conquered by Czarist Russia in the early eighteenth century.
McCaul is adressing both our foreign enemies and our domestic illegal alien invasion. He is smart enough to know the problems are not mutually exclusive.
Sure, why not? Who's to stop him, Obama?
There are far too many warship submarines in the world, and with some countries being belligerent, it will not be long before somebody decides to “cull the herd”.
It won’t be very obvious because “plausible deniability” will be the name of the game. So the effort will be to conceal evidence by using depth, so that a target submarine will first be severely damaged at crush depth, and then be at too great a depth to recover or even investigate.
All we can do is delay it as long as possible. That is the best course. Would give us time to ramp back up. The UniParty however wants a cold war ASAP. They just want to be able to exercise the means and could care less about the ends. Means would include justification for US ground forces in many hotspots, persecution of internal dissidents, shutting down alternative media, etc.. We would go back to the days when all we had was one view point presented to us. Remember when all Russian woman were fat and ugly ?
Oh, yeah. Russia needs more submarines. That’s funny.
not really, the Red team is just as bad of shape, they have some good units, but most divisions are conscript units with old equipment. We really need to put two brigades of heavy armor back in Europe, one in Germany and one in Poland, then the bluster of Putin would die down. We have a crap-load of armor sitting in storage that could easily be dusted off and shipped over and you can make decent privates in 6 months to a year to fill out the TOE.
The whole thing may have been a “whoops”” moment, same as our Navy perhaps shooting down flight 800.
It’s pretty impressive that we never had an accidental exchange of the big stuff. Yet.
In the state I live in if you give a gun to a gang banger and he kills someone you can be charged as an accessory to murder. Please explain his this situation is different.
But they have more troops than we do and do not care how many of them die to accomplish what they want to accomplish. Plus, the Red Chinese own most of America. They can simply call in the debt or refuse to buy any more of it. That will really put us in a mess. All created by LePunk Obama and his spending. The RINOpublicans are not much better.
