Think about it. Russia has not had a stellar record for really giving 2 shits what happens to their soldiers or citizens. If they really were looking for war do you think they would pull back hundreds to thousands of potential spies or sources of real time info on what is going on in the US? These Russian students are great sources of potential political upheaval in this country. Would they yank that capability when those types of activities have typically been their areas of strength?
All this is, IMHO, is Russia being Russia. Many here are too young to remember 1/4 of the shit they pulled during the cold war. |

Communist are going to back Communist. Putin is not worried about Hillary. They swear allegiance to the same way of life, the same system. This very well could be the Communist's combined effort to draw attention away from the email releases. Wag the Dog 2.10. If the US & Russia are both fighting proxy wars in Syria who benefits? The mil industrial machines of both countries. Hillary will keep that fight going. Both sides are making money. It is nothing but a magic act. The US was in a position to loose MILLIONS of men and women if we striaght up invaded Japan. We were worn down from fighting on 2 fronts for years. I cannot fathom the daily deaths from some of those battles. We had as much justification as anyone probably ever will for using an atomic weapon and here in 2016 we are still catching shit the world over for using them. It was literially a do or die decision. Do you honestly think Putin will risk the international shit storm they will be on the bad end of if they go atomic dog over a supposed proxy war in Syria? Come on now. The man is obviously a master tactician and you really think he'll go all of a sudden make a decision that would make even the North Koreans cringe? Putin see's an opportunity. He has a brief window of time right now to flex his muscle and show the world he has a bigger dong than Obama. Putin has seen The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly. He is smart enough to know "if you have to shoot, shoot; don't talk". |

I sat here a couple hours ago on a flight tracking website and watched as more than 20 tanker aircraft were airborne over the CONUS at the same time, with many of them heading N into Canada. That is highly unusual, especially at night and indicative possibly of supporting bomber sorties over the North Pole. There is also a ton of shit in the eastern Med right now, various navies, to include ours, the Russians, and various other powers, all in close proximity to each other. The same applies in Syria itself. One little slip up, one miscalculation, and SHTF. We also have a command ship sitting in the Black Sea right now, which is an unusual place for such a vessel to be. Heavy fighting has resumed in eastern Ukraine. The Russians have moved nuclear capable Iskander missiles into Kaliningrad. Then there is stuff like this..... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CuiHyWqWIAAbjhl.jpg:large Anyone familiar with what that aircraft does would know what it is doing in that region. I would expect to hear something very soon about provoctive Russian ICBM tests. I also monitor HF comms as a hobby and there was a veritable shit-ton of emergency action messages going out this evening in rapid sequence, and most of them had the same number of characters per message, which indicates this may have been a high priority message they wanted to make sure everyone received. There have also been usually high numbers of strategic aircraft airborne at any given time over the US. Earlier this evening there was something like 6 E-6B Mercury TACAMO aircraft airborne over the CONUS at the same time. There are only 16 of those aircraft in the inventory. The E-6B serves a dual purpose....transmitting messages to nuclear submarines at sea, as well as serving the role of the airborne command post....the job formerly handled by the EC-135 Looking Glass. There's just lots of weird and unusual shit going on right now and I think tensions are far higher than most people realize. These are dangerous times.

And Russians calling their children to return home to the motherland is at the bottom of the list of my concerns at the moment. Care to share? https://sputniknews.com/politics/201610111046240020-us-russia-cooperation/ https://www.rt.com/politics/362339-russia-tests-war-time-state/ http://www.businessinsider.com/russia-us-confrontation-2016-10 Beyond those things which have all been reported today, there is extremely unusual (and at times heavy) military movement going on. I sat here a couple hours ago on a flight tracking website and watched as more than 20 tanker aircraft were airborne over the CONUS at the same time, with many of them heading N into Canada. That is highly unusual, especially at night and indicative possibly of supporting bomber sorties over the North Pole. There is also a ton of shit in the eastern Med right now, various navies, to include ours, the Russians, and various other powers, all in close proximity to each other. The same applies in Syria itself. One little slip up, one miscalculation, and SHTF. We also have a command ship sitting in the Black Sea right now, which is an unusual place for such a vessel to be. Heavy fighting has resumed in eastern Ukraine. The Russians have moved nuclear capable Iskander missiles into Kaliningrad. Then there is stuff like this..... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CuiHyWqWIAAbjhl.jpg:large Anyone familiar with what that aircraft does would know what it is doing in that region. I would expect to hear something very soon about provoctive Russian ICBM tests. I also monitor HF comms as a hobby and there was a veritable shit-ton of emergency action messages going out this evening in rapid sequence, and most of them had the same number of characters per message, which indicates this may have been a high priority message they wanted to make sure everyone received. There have also been usually high numbers of strategic aircraft airborne at any given time over the US. Earlier this evening there was something like 6 E-6B Mercury TACAMO aircraft airborne over the CONUS at the same time. There are only 16 of those aircraft in the inventory. The E-6B serves a dual purpose....transmitting messages to nuclear submarines at sea, as well as serving the role of the airborne command post....the job formerly handled by the EC-135 Looking Glass. There's just lots of weird and unusual shit going on right now and I think tensions are far higher than most people realize. These are dangerous times. Interesting... The RC-135S Cobra Ball is a measurement and signature intelligence MASINT collector equipped with special electro-optical instruments designed to observe ballistic missile flights at long range. The Cobra Ball monitors missile-associated signals and tracks missiles during boost and re-entry phases to provide reconnaissance for treaty verification and theater ballistic missile proliferation. |

When the little yipper has rabies, all he has to do is break skin. My question is, "Just what the fuck is in Syria that is that important that they will be willing to accept a nuclear exchange over it?" Quote HistoryQuoted:

News blackout, and I'm not surprised.
Makes me wonder if Putin doesn't want any of his senior officers to hesitate because they may have children or relatives in areas that are within the blast radius of whatever they're targeting. Putin ordered a hit on a female journalist without blinking an eye. He's dangerous. None of this surprises me. |

Arfcom is a nuthouse at times. Russia has had 70 years to hit us with a nuke. You really think they blind side us now? Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
My understanding on current nuclear strategy as it pertains to Russia and the United States is that more accurate, variable yield weapons makes a nuclear apocalypse less likely and a nuclear exchange more likely. The Russkies are bringing their kids home, maybe because they are saber rattling, maybe because they are preparing a strike that will destabilize western governments and start WWIII. Bottom line, your SHTF scenarios may very well be on their way to coming true.
Arfcom is a nuthouse at times. Russia has had 70 years to hit us with a nuke. You really think they blind side us now? No but I can see FBHO doing something that makes war with Russia "justifiable". However the possibility that they know of an event here in the US (false flag or other) seems very plausible. The next big question is how will the US respond? |
