bring it and see what happens. The threat of mutual destruction keeps most of the "thinking" countries and factions at bay. I fear a radical zealous sleeper cell much more than that ship crossing a canal


bio and nuclear stuff scares me ALOT because you can't see it until it's too late!

Yeah, so, they are moving a destroyer either from West to East or East to West. What's the big deal? We do this stuff all the time. It's just that the Russkies usually make this deployment change up in the Arctic Ocean. Unfortunately for them, it's not a good time of the year for that sort of thing with surface ships. That or it may have just been geographically easier.

We have not controlled the Panama Canal for some time now. It is open to all nations.

The problem is of opinions. We think the Cold War ended 89-90, Russia does not. Couple that with certain views of how we should spend on our military, and this pic is the least of your worries.

Dude, this is 2009, not 1962. Technology ensures whatever conflict breaks out next will not be openly covered in the news before it happens. The war will start early with intelligence, not tanks, ships or manned planes.

well two things can be said about this
one they have plans on attacking us on our home ground,but i'm thinking the furthest they can hit is washington state, oregon, cali or nevada
and to be honest the only one that i actually give a sh*t about is oregon
but back to the attack part: putin is ex-kgb, so i wouldn't put anything past the comie

the other is they might be trying to make it around the world in 80 days
or they had just dropped off a nuke to cuba ,who knows
