#4 The West must not underestimate Russia's modernizations of her mil land assets, particularly in regards to deployment of strategic mobile ICBMS. Russia's strength historically has been as a land power -wid CHINESE emigration into the Far East, + the Islamic Bomb, Russia's LR focii will be to protect TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY, which in turn means in any major powers confrontation in PACOAS over NK-Taiwan, RUSSIA = IRAN = PREVENT/STOP AMER FROM IMMEDIATELY EMPLOYING HER FULL MILPOL MIGHT. Also remember that both Russia-China = Radical Islam > are counting on Amer getting WEAKER over time, NOT STRONGER. THE GLOBALIST AGENDAS OF THE TWO FORMER, SECULAR SOCIALIST + GOD-BASED SOCIALIST, WILL NOT BE ACHIEVED MERELY BY TEMPOR "HURTING" AMERICA FOR ONLY A SHORT TIME.

#5 ....Yuri Dolgoruki was laid down in 1996, and there's evidence that the keel-laying ceremony was an elaborate show for the rest of the world. Any submarine that has taken 11 years from laydown to launch is an accident waiting to happen.

#7 Hopefully we'll go ahead and pre-position some rescue equipment. I'd hate to see more dead Russian sailors because their politcal class are all crooked.
