Russia is playing a very dangerous game of intimidation, with military planes threatening U.S. ships and aircraft that are in international waters or airspace. Their objective is to embarrass the U.S. and to show NATO allies that the U.S. is a paper tiger, unwilling or unable to respond to the overt aggression shown recently against the U.S.
Russia has already annexed a portion of Ukraine called Crimea, and it seems to be threatening NATO forces in certain other areas in order to project strength and control.
So far, the Obama administration has done nothing to stop the actions other than to complain to the Russians and the world press. The Russians understand strength, not complaints, and they have clearly made Obama and the United States look impotent and unwilling to protect and support allies. Even more surprising, not only are the Russians overtly challenging the U.S., but they are making claims about who is at fault, claims that are clearly untrue.
Russians make ridiculous claims, page 2:
They should of lit them up
Obama will probably order the ship to surrender.
FY asswipe
Good- here is hoping they do – since Putin is the only one defending Americans in this Country by telling them to fight for Christianity and fight those that want their demise in Government and 22 Terrorist encampments in America ready to attack Americans. He is going to begin something with us for All Americans to see who they have in office as President and what the Muslim Brotherhood will do in this Administration when this happens and Congress. He wants to Americans to see those that want our demise, for half in America are blind and can’t see the truth that hits them in their faces.
Why should they respect the American authorities. Our govt is corrupt and they know it. Obama want to destroy the American way of life and allow his people in to take over. I am disgusted
STFU
