In the fwiw department Havana Bay isn’t 200 miles from Florida.

Key West is 90 miles from Cuba. Tampa is only 170 miles from Havana

Maybe I missed something?

....wow, John Kennedy, Allen Dulles and others sentenced 7,418,000 Cubans (1961 population) to a horrible life in April 1961.

22 years later (in 1983), the commies tried to expand into Grenada. The only difference is Reagan did not back down.

7 years after Grenada (1989), Noriega was “dictating” and running drugs and abusing US Army officer so Bush SR. kicked him out and jailed his ass for 17 years.

Then, ll years later, there’s Biden’s performance in Afghanistan.

Wow again! It really does make a difference to millions of poor people around the world when a Democrat President is in office.

I hear the Chinese will soon follow suit. Their war plan is going exactly the way they panned out. Not only will they be near our coastal waters, but they also have military age men boots on the ground already in our soil. I wonder if the woke generals are shaking in their high heel 👠 shoes in the pentagon as they see what’s developing. This is the legacy that we are leaving our children and grandchildren. Shame on us!

Russian Yasen-Class Nuclear Submarine “Kazan” Along With 3 Warships Arrive in Havana, Cuba

June 12, 2024 | Sundance | 107 Comments

Today, June 12th, is Russia Day, a national holiday in the Russian federation.  The symbolism of the intentionally timed events happening today seems to be lost on most western media.

A Russian Yasen-class nuclear submarine named “Kazan” arrived in Havana, Cuba today after piloting through the Florida straits.  Watching a massive nuclear submarine sail into Havana is something extraordinary considering all the provocations taking place between the USA and Russia surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.

Additionally, in a counteraction to provide clarity to the intents and economic purposes of the Biden administration (DoS, CIA and IC), today the Treasury Dept announces new 2nd round sanctions against Russia.   However, in comparative terms, the physical appearance of a nuclear-powered Russian submarine and a set of accompanying warships carrying hypersonic cruise missiles approximately 30 miles from the USA mainland, is a little more dramatic than western saber rattling about sanctioning two Russian banks, Sberbank and VTB.

The Russian submarine fleet, and specifically the Yasen-class submarine group, is the tip of the spear against any military force the USA might choose to deploy in Eastern Europe.  Russian President Vladimir Putin is essentially signaling the people behind Joe Biden that he is willing to participate in the provocation approach.

The USA provoked Russia by moving NATO ever closer, including inside Ukraine.  Now we see Russia provoking NATO by moving a nuclear capable fleet into position just a few miles from the USA coast.  This follows the recent EU election where one of the key messages from the crushing of the pro-war leftists, was an EU citizenry rebuking the possibility of war with Russia.

The EU populists know Ukraine is a proxy fight driven by the United States and they do not want to participate.  The European Union leadership wants war and leftist policy, the European Union citizens want peace and increased national sovereignty.  The two EU political preferences are diametrically in conflict.

NATO and the proverbial western financial system (WEF group) want to block Russia, China, Iran and the growing economies from impeding with their carbon-trading schemes.  The dollar-based digital currency is the largest operational hurdle in the process of creating a system of control based on energy use.

Digital identities and digital currencies are the predicate for digital control of the population.  Thus, if you chase the Russian sanctions to their origination point, the motive you will find was/is essentially “the west” building a wall around the dollar-based global trade and finance system.  Conflict with Russia set up the justification.

Yes, that is correct; we are heading straight into another banker’s war.

I’d like to see one of these subs pop up off the Delaware coast some weekend. Could lead to another poopie pants incident.

We probably have hundreds of warships and planes surrounding those countries over there.

Hope they're enjoying the weather...

[SuperLuminal]

When you watch the video of their arrival, it gives you a warm fuzzy feeling...
Five minutes from the east coast???
At least we needn't worry about the Nation's half-assed DEI-controlled early warning systems...

Instead of the covid vax crap, we'll be issued masks and potassium iodide pills...

Potassium iodide is a salt that can help protect you from radioactive iodine. Your thyroid gland is the part of your body that’s most sensitive to radioactive iodine. Potassium iodide can help block your thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine if you are exposed to it. But the salt doesn’t protect the rest of your body from radioactive iodine, only your thyroid. It also can’t reverse any health issues caused by radioactive iodine if your thyroid was already damaged. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released guidance in December 2001 on how to safely use potassium iodide. In pill or liquid form, it can help protect you during a nuclear radiation emergency.

One quarter of this ‘fleet’ is rescue tug? 😂

Only Americans don't know why Russia is doing this.

They’re closer than that, try Havana. 90 miles out.

So?

It’s International water!

U.S. Southern Command released a statement that said:

“The fast-attack submarine USS Helena is in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba as part of a routine port visit as it transits the U.S. Southern Command geographic area of responsibility while conducting its global maritime security and national defense mission. The vessel’s location and transit were previously planned.”

Although the United States stated that the Russian visit to Cuba did not pose a threat to the U.S. and that none of the vessels appeared to be carrying nuclear weapons, the ships were shadowed and tracked by the U.S. forces during their voyage to the port in Havana, Cuba.
