???....... are you drunk again?...... ???....... i remember on the last forum you always talked about having some kind of alcoholic beverage in front of you........... and for your info... yes.... i am absolutely real.....and have never even opened a tom clancy novel...... much less read one....... but i did see a few movies based on them...... are you a character in one of those?........
do you recognize sarcasm when you see it?.......... i said "worn out" f15s and f16s...... and no i don;t think putin would be intimidated by it at all..... or with anything else the u.s. is currently capable of doing.......... and for the record i don;t have any idea where those aricraft were going to or why........ military planes fly in and out of here all the time..... and all around the island too........ they could be on their way to a scrap yard for all i know......or to serve as extras in another tom clancy movie..... :
....... you should have seen what was flying around here when they were filming pearl harbor..... 8)
i;m having a hard time believing you are really this clueless..... but the idea you might be is starting to grow on me..... ???..... ... maybe you should put down both the alcoholic beverage and the tom clancy novels and read some real history......and learn some real recent history too........ are you even remotely aware of the agreements made between nato and the ukraine concerning the nuclear arsenal they were previously in possession of?.......and are you aware that membership in nato is something they have been trying to obtain and also something putin has sworn he will prevent them from getting?....... do you know how many multi-billionaires currently live in russia and what kind of control they have over the countries economy?.....do you know where their money comes from?.............. i;ll give you hint..... it;s nothing even remotely effected by mr obamas sanctions...........
gotta hand it to you...... when you decide to show your ignorance you do it in a really big way...... and your timing is pretty good too............ putin has been so impressed with mr obamas "sanctions"... that today he sent 32 main battle tanks across the border into the ukraine..... and ukrainian forces claim russian artillery is supporting the rebels they are currently in battle with........ of course russia denies all this........ but a lot of independent news sources have verified it.......
what;s the matter?....... haven;t you been paying attention to the news?..........what do your usa today and guardian papers say about this?........or do they even know about it?.........are they ignoring it hoping putin will draw them back.... are they waiting for obama to make his next "official statement" about it so they will know what to report?.......
like i said before... and like everybody but you and the obamanites seem to understand......putin means to have the ukraine back under russian control......he has said that from the start....... maybe you and obama do understand it and you mean for him to have it back too......... so far obama has been a liar about everything else..... why not that too?.........
i never said i knew how to handle the ukraine situation.... ???..... or anything else for that matter.......... but i do know how to recognize a president who has done nothing ... yet claims to have done everything..... and i know that if obama stays true to form when things go sour he will recant his claim to credit and blame someone else for all that goes wrong.... :-\....... and i also know people who exhibit attitudes and actions like his are far from being leaders.... much less strong leaders like you claimed....
but you seem to go on and on praising obama about everything..... even things he had nothing to do with and things he totally messed up........... but most notably here for the dubious success of a set of sanctions .. the true success of which still remains to be seen....... have you and mr obama told putin about the success of obamas sanctions yet?............ maybe you should tell putin before he sends another column of tanks into the ukraine and looks even more "foolish"..... :
..... or chalks up the ukraine in the crimea category......... because..... i don;t think he knows yet how great an accomplishment the sanctions against his country have been for the obama administration...... 8)
I figured your comment about Putin being impressed with a tanker/fighter formation out of Hickam was tongue-in-cheek in part at least. But then when I remembered this absurd statement from one of your earlier posts,
study the history of what russians do when threatened with invasion and have no hope of outside help and you will see the real reason putin backed off the ukraine
I began to wonder. No matter.
Yes, I was aware that Ukraine wanted to join NATO and in the end was not invited to do so, largely due to vehement Russian opposition which caused some NATO members to give in. I remember very well when that was headline news. And yes, I was also aware of Ukraine's nuclear disarmament. And yes, I read and heard about a purported Russian incursion into Eastern Ukraine yesterday. But unlike your "lot of independent sources," according to a Pentagon statement early today there is no evidence to confirm such an event.
You type lots of words in pretty blue script peppered with silly insults and little yellow faces, but in the end say nothing. The underlying theme of this discussion, such as it is, is your criticism of and contempt for Obama's actions in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine. Yet, when asked how
you would handle the situation you provide no alternative. Well then, your criticism has no validity. It so happens that the European Union, Australia, Canada, Japan, Norway, and other nations, with all their diplomatic, intelligence, foreign affairs and legal resources apparently agree with Obama and have all implemented sanctions of their own against Russia. But of course you, with your extensive knowledge of all things Ukraine and Ukrainian know better. You don't know what is better, but you know better.
