BTW speaking of intel, I can post up some SRC sitreps, but they won't be the most up to date as I get them off someone else and by the time I read them they're several hours old.

well that is entirely a valid argument given that obama doesn't have any foreign policy experience so that is left with the old man cain. -

On the 1st day of the war a total of 24 B52s flew off from an AFB that normally caters only to KC135s and houses the 22nd Ops Group of the USAF.

ha ha ha
u know there are plenty of bases with KC135 ....anyway i am within nuke fall out zone. first to kiss A.
But i think it is time to wake up to Cold War II. i wonder where are the trident sub?
-
No, this base is SPECIFICALLY used for KC135s only. Which made the sudden appearance of 24 B 52s a bit... unusual.

The Georgian President can go eat humble pie. First his anti-Russian policies, propaganda etc., and then he goes to war thinking the US can help him.
As for the US and Nato, they can go fuck themselves. Deliberately encroaching on Russian territory, fanning anti-Russian factions and propaganda, all the way smiling as they welcomed Russophobic countries, and finally approachin the doorsteps of Russia. Like they never saw this coming.
-
Russophobic? Russia's neighbours are now sovereign nations and who they choose to ally with is their own business. If they want less to do with a country that still sees them as territories that should submit, what right has Moscow to stop them? Since the end of the Cold War, Russia's claims to superpower status haven't disappeared.

looking at the Russian tank rolling down Georgia i am glad that SG had taken LEO.
AMX 13 sm1 is seriously outdated.

The Bush administration got no leverage in this issue considering they invaded Iraq on the pretext of WMDs and some shady connection between UBL & Saddam..

You obviously have no fucking clue as to the nature of the geopolitics of the area haven't you? Have you heard of the Monroe Doctrine? This century old doctrine simply states that the United States will not tolerate any Great Power from having any holdings in the American continent itself. If I were Russia, I would apply the same philosophy, especially when there are plenty around the area who hate me, especially Scandinavia, where the animnosity is so fucking old, it's older than this damn fucking country before Raffles even found this place.
Especially when there are plenty of US politicians who hate Russia, whether it is democratic or not.

I'm looking at it from the perspective of Russia's neighbours. I don't claim to be an authority but I have friends in those countries and I follow what goes on there. Don't you know why Moscow is disliked so much in the first place?
