Yeah, god bless the conservatives, instead of us producing and selling cutting edge fighters/strategic bombers, and employing Canadians we can buy them from the US with our money.
Rot in hell Diefenbaker. |

Big deal its just something else they make that can fall out of the sky, just like the super-sub that sank. Even algeria is demanding its money back for planes they bought of the russians, and there are a few other nations wanting their cash back. Ive got my slug gun ready to shoot any out of the air, IF they get of the ground. They must be replacing the other bombers they have , you know the ones with PROPPELORS. Now thats stealth at its best eh.

Lol, nobody but nobody makes America squeal like girlie men like Russia. That's why Russia vectored one of those "prop" BEARS right over the tower of the USS Nimitz just a month ago. RIGHT OVER THE TOWER. Pussies.... And US "stealth"? Try flying one of those over Kamchatka. It would go down faster than Gary Powers..... Israel was squealing like pigs too in the Lebanon/Israel war in 2006. Russia said thank you for the free antitank weapons advertisement. Meh... |

Israeli state of the art warship destroyed by imported Chinese "noor" missile in Lebanon war 2006.
A knockoff of the Russian AS15 Nato code name "Kent" antiship missile. |

The Sukhoi series 27/30/35/37 "Flanker, Superflanker, Terminator, air superiority/strike fighter has never seen combat against the "vaunted" US airforce.
More "untested junk". |

Two SSN 22 missiles max, and a US aircraft carrier goes to the bottom of the ocean. It's known as the most deadly antiship missile in the world.
Probably why, the US is pushing bases and "Nato signees". Their ability to "project power" has been neutered by Russian weaponry. It's all about Russia, not some "intercontinental launch from Iran". The US still do and always will fear Moscow. |

Russia Will Arm Iran With Advanced Air Defense Systems
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.... Pfft, you ain't seen nothin yet, like the S/400 Triumf SA/20 being deployed around Moscow. |

The latest version of the high performance, strategic air defense system developed by the Almaz Science and Production Association is the S-300PMU3 / S-400 Triumf (SA-21). The missile was first introduced in 1999 and features a new, much larger missile developed by the Fakel Machine Building Design Bureau, deployed in pairs (two per TEL), rather then stacks of four as in previous S-300 systems. Unlike its predecessor (the S-300), the Triumf is equipped with a homing warheads and therefore, can be employed beyond the range of its guidance radar (up to 400 km). The system is believed to have an engagement range of 400 km (250 mi) and the capability to detect stealth. The Triumf missile is capable of intercepting medium range (3,500km) ballistic missiles. On July 12 the Russian Air Force successfully tested the new S-400 Triumpf air defense missile system. The long range anti-aircraft / anti-missile system is capable of intercepting targets considered 'difficult' for contemporary air defense systems, including 'stealth' aircraft and long-range, high flying targets such as the early warning and control (AWACS) platforms. |

1 Why the f do you think that in the span of 8 f'ing years, that the cold war in effect is back on? Because the USofA exploited that weakness that was the dismembered and gutted Russian Federation to go on the offensive with wars in "strategic areas" whether it be the Balkans or Iraq. I guess you WHOLLY agree with giving away parts of sovereign nations just because YOU hold the bigger HAMMER? YA? Like KOSOVO? When OUR nation PUT THE F'ing MILITARY ON THE STREETS AND IMPOSED MARTIAL LAW FOR A FEW FLQ MEMBERS in the 70"s. I guess YOU support wars built on LIES and flies in the VERY spirit of the NUREMBURG TRIBUNALS and "PREEMPTIVE WAR?" YA? You wonder WHY Russia is now the "belligerant bear again"? BECAUSE OF POLICIES THAT EVEN THE CANADIAN GOV"T IN ALL IT"S HYPOCRACY SUPPORTS, when THEY employed the VERY same tactics of military LOCKDOWN to preserve OUR territorial integrity. You don't thing that in the political arena of international powerbroking for every action there is an equal and opposite REACTION? Go ahead, appease the shit that has gone on in this world especially since the United States of America EXPLOITED the power vacuum created when Moscow disappeared from the world stage in utter and complete destruction, economically, and wasn't even able to pay it's own pensions, let alone have a voice in the world. Tough shit if they are back, at least SOME country has the balls to give Washington at least PAUSE if they figure they are going to run roughshod over whomever they figure they can, just because they hold the bigger gun. |

1 Their support, and proposal to Russia was to "negotiate" with the likes of Basayev, Zelimkhan Yandarbiyev etc, all internationally recognized terrorists, the "Chechen rebels" When the FSB tracked down and blew Yandarbiyev up in Qatar with a car bomb, the US response? Help Qatar ARREST the FSB agents. If America blew up Zarqawi or any other douchebag in say, Ingushetia, and Russia helped arrest the US agents what would be the response? I can BET what the response would be, Russia is abetting terrorists. Anti American, oh you bet, when they deploy these kinds of 'standards' meanwhile bleating that they are fighting the 'war on terra'.... ---------- If you are a Christian, you are in danger. Even if you are an atheist, you are in danger, and if you decide to convert to Islam, this will not save you, either, because traditional Islam is inimical to the conditions and objectives set by them [the terrorists]. If you are prepared to become a most radical Islamist and are prepared to circumcise yourself, I invite you to come to Moscow. I will recommend having the operation done in such a way that nothing will grow for you there anymore. Putin snapping back at a reporter from Le Monde who asked a critical question about the conduct of the war in Chechnya, in November 2002. The quotation was rendered innocuous by his interpreter, but the original was recorded on audio and widely reprinted in Russia. http://www.billionquotes.com/index.php/Vladim... American Committee for "peace" in Chechnya my ass. |
