Putty is something else. How he can be having such a fit over 10 interceptors is beyond comprehension. He has thousands of ICBMs. Even if Russian maintenance is somehow so dreadful that only 25% of the fleet is operational, it's stil absurd to be griping about 10 intrceptors.

Putin is a dangerous man.

However it is not beyond my comprehension why he is griping about the USA putting nukes on its borders.

Its all the other things he's up to that worries me, esculating an arms war now that russia is in an economic position to follow suit is not smart.

Russia is a dying country. An ageing population, sickness and disease abound, knackered conventional military, enemies encroaching on its undefendable borders.

It is scary to contemplate what the dying nation might be willing to do to delay it's inevitable demise.

And Russia is not in an economic position to follow suit. The last space race worked out well for us, and if they want another one, it'll work out well for us again.

Well, let me flick through my little history book here...

Yah..
Yeah...
Mhmm....

Yes. Well, if history has taught us anything about war and Russia, it's probably best to presume that they're not gonna die out quite yet...

Never said that. Just said that they don't have the economy to hang out with the big dogs in an arms race.

I'll say it again. The last one worked out well for us, a future one will have the same results.

Do you honestly think that the Chinese economy will surpass ours in a decade?

Half of your country is already owned by the Chinese.
All your industry is gone.
All the money on your stockmarket is invested off-shore and abroad.
Your country's debts are considerable...well...I can think of stronger terms to describe it too...

Yah... you're pretty much hanging by your nuts already.

Er...no. I never knew they ever did.

But Dylan already, in 1983, sung about the selling off of US assets.
I believe the modern term is "Globalisation", but it really just means under-cutting the workforce and "outsourcing" to cheaper labour in cheaper countries.
Or forcing people to work longer hours for less wages.

Same's happening here, albeit slower. But selling us down the river they are!

lol

You are soooo cute when you are mindless.

Did you notice that the US set a new world record today? Stongest ecomomy IN THE FRICKIN HISTORY OF THE WORLD? And that this it the fiftieth time in the past 8 years to have done so?

To quote one of your old stalinist hero's... "We will bury you!" google it and giggle along as we follow your socialist revolution to todays trash heap of history. Killed any farmers for "land ownership" lately there ms. Commmie?

If I listened and read correctly, what he is so pissed off at is that we invited him to join in an anti-rocket missle system. But truth to tell, i didn't pay much attention to it.

To hear the world bash the US though, you would think we were installing mirved rockets tomorrow. lol

Silly world we live in. But with naught but the bbc spewing news in europe, what can one expect? By the way... did you know that BBC stands for "Bureau Of Bodacious Crap"? Here is a link to what is now "the great evil plan to put missles on Russias borders". lol

Nuff' to make a growed up person cry. Almost.
