Even the Russians understand the law of gross tonnage, on land and sea.

I think maybe the driver wasn’t even aware it was a Russian vehicle, he was just responding to an aggressive vehicle.

Just my .02

I think I agree with that, he wouldn’t have been able to see the Russian flag coming up from behind. And as another poster pointed out, incidents like this happen every day on American roads, so meh.

Obviously fake news. The President announced our withdrawal from Syria 14 months ago. Surely after all this time we no longer have any troops there.

Lunacy. They were trolling along at gold cart speed, and when a Russian vehicle passed them, they rammed. How anyone anywhere can think this is a good idea is beyond comprehension. Especially since it’s all for the retarded goal of removing Assad.

I agree, the Russian vehicle was coming up the right shoulder around the rest of traffic.

Passing on the right on that narrow road indicates that the Russian driver has no sense.

It's a busy road and he couldn't wait to pass a military convoy?

Sure, our guy shouldn't have shoved him aside into a field but ...

The thing is, I am not sure coming up on the right is as big a thing in Russia.

This seems like one of those things, which occasionally happen between cultures.

Americans would never do this. But Russians, just might.
