Syria and the Assad family have been Russia’s allies since 1971. Who would believe that Russia would sit back quietly and watch their Syrian assets get overthrown? Well apparently fools like Obama and Hillary, who have been ginning up their own private war in Syria for several years with the predictable result. Why we should then let their undeclared Syrian war pull us into a much more dangerous war with Russia is a mystery I’ve yet to hear explained.

The Russian “show of force” in the English Channel is them sending their lone aircraft carrier and its escorts to reinforce the ten warships that they already have sitting off of Syria. AFAIK Russia gets to use international waters like everyone else. I’d be a lot less worried about a 1985 vintage carrier, a battle cruiser and two destroyers than I would about Russia’s missile subs that we don’t see.

Mobile nukes on the border of Poland- meaning that the missiles are in Russia. I’m not aware of Russia ever having let us tell them where they get to place their hardware inside their own borders. And I doubt that we ask their permission on where we get to post our own.

Russia’s nationwide civil emergency exercise- Putin evidently is a master showman to get so many people all worked up over his Chinese Fire Drill.

While those can be seen as demonstrations of force by Russia I fail to see how even a single one of them is a direct challenge to the United States, although Hillary and her neocon pets certainly would like the American public to take the bait.

Your inability to recognize international communications in any form other than certified communiques is remarkable. Thanks for sharing.

Almost all our past presidents always try to reduce the Nuclear tensions, and equalize the balance of power at least.... but not Hillary or Obama. Especially not Hillary.
Their get-go plans have been to go into Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Sudan,..then Iran....and they have.

On the other hand Putin has publicly stated he is not an advocate for the Assad Government nor of Assad....rather when Russia entered the Syrian War Egypt wasn't stable, nor Libya, Yemin, Tunsia, Iraq, nor Afghanistan....pretty much the entire ME was unstable, as predicted by many would happen,.....So why would any expect Putin would sit and watch the same thing happen to Syria?

It just seems like Putin has to go around and constantly mop up the toppled regimes of terrorists after Hillary and Obama
topple them by supporting proxy use of terrorists and or supplying the Muslim brotherhood or Saudi in doing so.

He's fighting terrorism while their using them......fro the get-go Assad made clear the war was escalating because of Islamic terrorists entering the country.....and that because of the deranged minds of the Islamists who believe Syria war would fulfill their Estagolical Dreams...and which the Muslim Brotherhood promotes heavily knowing it will incite fighters to go there. Putin's not going to let Syria go into the hands of the Islamists as we've seen happen in many other nations from the so called Arab Spring.....he's got enough to contend with them in his own country....and the conflicts with in his other border countries.
