Barack Obama has sold this country down the river. He reflects the views of his idiotic liberal supporters that if we, as a country, are just “nice” enough, we will be loved and respected by all the other countries. That is not how geopolitics works, and as the only legitimate super power, we have a large bulls-eye painted on our back. There are political points for taking on the “big dog in the neighborhood,” and so countries as unlikely as Venezuela will challenge the U.S. in order to gain international stature.
Ronald Reagan knew that it was better to be respected than loved in this situation, and there was very little of “tickling the dragons tail” while he was in office because other countries were not quite sure how strong a response they would elicit if they stepped over the line. Fear can be a tremendous motivator.
In addition to Barack Obama showing that he, and by reflection the U.S., is a paper tiger, Russia is showing new signs of aggressiveness and strength as Putin works to restore the image and stature of Russia and to remake the old Soviet Union. In the 2012 presidential election, Obama laughed and mocked Romney when he suggested that Russia was our most dangerous and immediate foe, but it turns out that Mitt was right. Russia is once again taking on the United States and playing chicken to see just how far she can go. In the latest interaction, the game was quite dangerous and could easily have led to a number of deaths.

So, where’s Barry ?
Such BS, if there was a ‘flyover,’ it would have been approved by the captain. These things don’t just happen out of the blue, they can track planes and ships from hundreds of miles away. Why is this page trying to perpetuate hatred against Russia, focus on your own problematic leadership, this is only a diversion to keep the sheeple occupied.
They’re trying to, your potus wants nothing to do with it, needs Murican sheeple to believe there is still a cold war
Our President has done what about this? Oh, the usual; nothing.
let us not forget that the Navy Destroyer was cruisin near/in Russian waters.
Obama still underfunds the military. He should be removed from office for endangering the lives of the citizens of this country.
Oh what ever America any move Russia makes you call it aggression lol look at your self for a change who’s aggressive to my opinion its America
Hummm message stay the hell out of Rusian waters.
Go Russia!!!!! We in the USA need a leader like Putin.
Are you shitting me you retard? Underfund? We spend more on our defense budget than every other country on earth combined. We have like 10 times more warships and aircraft carriers than anyone on earth. If anything, we need to imprison Obama somewhere for the rest of his pitiful life, and THEN underfund the military and stop doing the b******t we do. If we stopped murdering thousands upon thousands of people, blow up their cities and buildings, steal their resources, and support Israel for absolutely no reason, then we won’t have all these enemies. If we stop fucking with everyone, we don’t need a military like we have now. We won’t have the enemies. And then we can start fixing$#%&!@*here instead of worrying about everyone else.
