1. Turnabout is fair play

They aren't breaking any rules. They are doing EXACTLY what the US and NATO does, and all of a sudden, it's an international incident?

Such hypocrisy!


Russia threatening Britian was they overrun the Ukraine... turn about is fair play!

3. It is the media forwarding government war talk and creating tension..it is what they do to control thought.

Sound familiar?

Only the West is allowed to test rival perimeter security..the fact Russia is NOT a military enemy anymore is give NATO a great sad...no enemies, no NATO.


Russia is not our enemy. The west is our enemy! [/DU]

42. Yes, they are breaking rules...

"Sources said the Russian planes were flying without their transponders turned on, making them invisible to civilian aircraft. A number of flights arriving in Britain had to be diverted to avoid potential disaster."

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/industry/defence/11378119/UK-summons-Russian-ambassador-after-dangerous-bombers-disrupt-civil-aircraft.html

Any proof / links that "NATO is doing exactly the same thing"?


oh, dear... you fell into the mole trap of supporting the west with facts and reality...

11. When exactly did Russia become a mortal enemy again and the Cold War start anew? Sabre rattling in Maui is.....strange. And it only seems to be Russia.


they never stopped. You leftists just 'forgot'

47. Fred is uninterested in actual dialogue

He equates a nuclear capable bomber encroaching on Cornwall as an appropriate response to our supposed flights into Russian air space, without even showing we've been doing that lately. I'm sure if Russia caught us or the RAF doing these types of maneuvers, they would be squawking left and right. So where is the proof, Fred?

I wonder how Mr. Sanders would react if someone armed with a bazooka was sneaking around in his back yard. Would he think that was just hunky-dory?

Of course not, unless he is a crazy person.

I'm betting he is other-motivated.

they might not see Russia, but they certainly see this....


maybe because republicans are not blinded by their politics.

28. So would the USA....

Game Over !!!

Besides, that's certainly NOT what the Brits are concerned about. Electronic eavesdropping is the name of the game.

And, the USA restarted the Cold War Crap. 


But but... Barry had Hillary push the reset button!

36. America has a military presence or actual bases in 133 countries and spies on them all.

The world is far more concerned about America's 10 fold military advantage over Russia. Who should be more frightened?

The world is actually a lot bigger than America, some places even have different opinions about America than Americans do.....shocking, but true.

18. Why are you a MIC apologist? Why not question the propaganda? On Russia and Putin only, the media is telling the gospel truth? Everything else they lie about?

"The scary Russians, the scary ISIS, the scary Iran...etc. etc." Same con game, same exploitation of the reptilian brain.

That is called "tunnel vision".

I am consistent in questioning the media information, across the board, across all the issues, some are not.

23. Are you scared? Then mission accomplished for the UK con government.

America has 6000 nuclear weapons, thousands surrounding Russia..maybe this routine incident should spark a conversation on another issue?

France and UK hundreds more....Israel, hundreds more....

The Russian Bears are ancient propeller-drive planes. I'm amazed they are still able to fly to the UK.

Having a weak president in the White Mosque has emboldened commies the world over and made this a less safe world.   

Japan for the first time since WWII, is seriously strengthening their only military in response to aggression from China, because Barry sides with our enemies instead of our allies.

Well, you are an idiot.  The Tu95 maxes out at 575 mph, with a one-way range of over 9,000 miles.  The B52 only goes 70 mph faster with a similar range but supported by a midair refueling fleet structure the Russians lack.  Neither one can outrun even a high-subsonic interception, let alone a missile or a true supersonic interceptor.  Its biggest drawback is that it's reportedly as noisy inside as it is outside, but the Russians have never given a rat's ass about crew comfort.

dd & CH, people in the US have their minds in the consumer mentality of having the latest whatever. Most DU-folk are probably tapping away on their new or year-old iMacs, Mac Books, iPhones, and iPads, little thinking that many USAF and USN assets are 1950s designs built in the 1960s and 1970s. And the A-10s are a 1960s design built into the early 1980s. They couldn't imagine commuting daily to work - those who have jobs - in a mid-60s Chevy Impala or a mid-70s Toyota Corona.

Bear or Stratofortress, if it's operational and can deliver its payload, its age doesn't much matter.

Rightwing solution: Shoot it down and claim they were stealing your bullets and got overloaded.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
