RAF jets are scrambled twice in 48 hours to ward off Putin's
latest show of force with Russian jets - as Ukraine cries
foul over Easter 'ceasefire'
. . .
Yep, Vlad IS gonna keep pushing, pushing, pushing.
The UK at this juncture ... barely, maybe not, in a
position to push back even over home territory.
Yep, THAT bad.
When WW2 started the Poles rolled out horse-carts
bearing WW1 (or older) little field artillery
pieces. Hitler showed up with heavy motorized
armor and state-of-the-art planes and SQUASHED
them in an instant.
Is the UK the new Poland ? The EU ?
The USA ???
"The West" got USED to being "superior", the
IDEA of that ... but failed to MAINTAIN that
capability. Too many social programs and
'immigrants' and such to support ... send
the money elsewhere.
Now, clearly, VERY bad idea.
Will the 21st century be a SinoRussian authoritarian
empire ? Really LOOKS that way alas. Ignore your
enemies capabilities/balls and get SQUASHED.
