its an illusion all right like he says and fast dyeing but if you like the taste of fracking chemicals in you water that 99% of the population is against then don't let me stop you drinking it.
So yes, Russia has put nuclear weapons in an "occupied" territory. Neat.
its in the other thread but here you go.
Nukes deployed by Russia
General Breedlove also confirmed that Nato believes Russia is deploying nuclear-capable weapons to Crimea - a reference to reports that Russia is deploying short-range Iskander ballistic missiles there that could potentially be equipped with nuclear warheads.
Have you seen any flying elephants
They are claiming that they believe Iskander missiles are being moved into Eastern Ukraine, but that they are not certain. Because Iskanders are short range missiles, it is highly unlikely that they will be armed with nuclear warheads, although could be if Putin so desired.
Russia defense minister Sergey Shoigu said Wednesday that the plan to send the long-range bombers is in response to a growing international resentment over Ukraine.
In addition, he said, Russia will boost its security in Crimea, the region it annexed from Ukraine earlier this year.
"In many respects, this is connected with the situation in Ukraine, with fomentation of anti-Russian moods on the part of NATO and reinforcement of foreign military presence next to our border," Shoigu said.
"Under these conditions, the formation of full-fledged and self-sufficient forces on the Crimean peninsula is a priority task."
Shoigu said Russian long-range bombers will conduct flights along the Russian border and over the Arctic Ocean.
"In the current situation we have to maintain military presence in the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific, as well as the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico," he said. "Due to that, as part of the drills, Russian long-range bombers will conduct flights along Russian borders and over the Arctic Ocean."

American military equipment and its deployment is not a waste. After all Russia did recently invade Ukraine. Who knows if they will stop there.

Yes I agree because what you do is start little wars in the middle east and then sit back and sell each side weapons and its a plan that has worked time and again for the USA and Israel with its international bankers.
Excuse me... who is selling weapons, including the cluster munitions that are being used against civilians, to Assad?
