Right, so Obama reassures Estonia that the US and NATO will protect them from the Russians. Then the Russians run across the border and kidnap an intelligence agent and drag him back to Russia. Okaay.
I can just see the Estonian officers marching orders on that one.
"Your sacrifice is for the motherland, the US will save you."
If that doesn't stink I don't know what does.

There is a price when you display weakness.
Putin is a Bully. He sees weakness.
Unfortunately, Bully's only understand one thing.
I can't see Obama acting against Russia. The only thing weaker than Obama is the UN.

Exactly,
The only option open to Obama is war with Russia, no sane person would do that.
Yet, you all blame Obama for being weak. Funny, I bet your the first to find an excuse not to fight Russian's and enjoy the rain of Grads - yet, its all Obama's fault!

Does the new elaborate nuclear war survivable underground presidential palace come with a golf course, or at least a put-put course/driving range with virtual reality golf?
Inquiring minds want to know.
If so, we may be F'd ...

I wish I shared your confidence in China staying out. What you say is true, but at the end of the day it's not about who has more currency in the bank. It's about who controls the most land and resources.
China and Russia together would make for an alliance to be reckoned with.

Why does every-damned-thing have to be part of some Zionist plot?
If these Zionists are so controlling and all powerful to be involved in nearly every aspect of our government and private sector, why aren't they ruling the world rather than fighting for survival?
It's always amazing to see how people leap to these conclusions, on almost any global news events.
Wow

True however there is always the possibility the bully will find himself face to face with McFly at the prom and get a can of whoopass opened up on him.
Why risk it.
The economic system that they have set up (BIS lending to central banks, lending to local banks, lending to customers) requires a constant expansion of the world banking system. This can only be achieved through the never-ending conquest of countries. To make the world safer, they want financial control of those countries, so the first thing they do is to invade those "problem countries" and seize their gold reserves and other archaeological artifacts of value.
