Russian military officials insist that the move has no connection with the ongoing crisis in the region and was planned a year ago, the Izvestia newspaper reports. Apart from Syria, the aircraft carrier and its escort ships are set to visit the Lebanese capital, Beirut, Genoa in Italy and Cyprus, says the former Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Viktor Kravchenko.

Nevertheless, he added that the presence of a military force other than NATO’s is very useful for this region, because “it will prevent

There is a whole lot of military equipment and people being moved across the globe.Last week it was the United States moving its battle groups.I know by being a veteran it costs large amounts of money to move these things.

I think the world is secretly building up for the bug showdown.I cant remember but it was a British Newspaper that was hyping WWWIII between China and the United States.

Well folks lets keep our eyes and ears open and pray this comes to a diplomatic close.

Even though this has been discussed before on ATS.... I think you post is important as its very interesting to read all the comments below the article. It shows the other side of the coin and what the other side is thinking about.

100% correct. If Russia turned off gas and oil to Europe now, the EU would be at its knees, begging.

Russia should not put that ship over there, the right location should be close to New York...

For far too long we've come to accept that: America is a big bully! It has even penetrated far deep into our subcoscious we no longer do anything about it! We see war mongers and war criminals using American political and military power abhorrently arrogantly to viciously batter and annihilate countries like Iraq; we say nothing, so long as it's the American government which is doing the bullying and causing the devastating destruction!

I think they should go further by launching a preemptive attack on the devils. they currently are at their weakest and the whole world hates them. if allowed to rise again we are all in deeper trouble

Do this all the time... last time he was there was in August 2008... it's not there ``all the time``.

What's there ``all the time`` are US aircraft carriers.

Russia NEEDS their port at Tartus. It's their only port outside of Russia.

NATO attacking Syria is like if Russia was about to attack Bahrain (where the US 5th fleet is located)... Bahrain deserves to be overthrown as much as Syria. America without it's 5th fleet would sure help to stop their little wars in the middle-east.

See the thing is you are quite correct, perhaps through sarcasm though

Bible/Nostradamus aside you can call Hitler an anti-christ(but nazis wore "god is on our side belts) or you can call him just a very bad man sitting on the top of a war machine.

But Hilter got in power through hyperinflation, if it wasn't for horrible economic times he would never have risen to power.
And just as with Hitler we are moving closer and closer to what people view as socialism

What does this during an oncoming serious unemployement crisis mean... it would end up meaning alot of jobs....... in the military
Just like with Hitler

Now how would such a war look like today where it's not countries vs. countries but what is becoming continental powers vs. continental powers with perhaps the same guy sitting on top.

In every war thread we should be talking about the state of the economy as well

The US no longer has a carrier group off the coast of Syria. The USS George H.W. Bush is curently in port in Marseille, France

The USS Anzio (escort vessel for the group) is roatating out and is currently in port in Spain.

Global security.

Well that was 3 days ago... and Marseilles is just across the Mediterranean. They could be off Syria within 2 days.

Hopefully, they head back to America after that little stop in Marseilles.

Everyone thinks war is imminent, even me. What if this is setting the stage to something else besides war? We tend to think the obvious, maybe some other subversive action is happening. Who knows.

I read more comments that downplay the article tremendously, it's probably more in the world subconcious more then some leaderships concious. Then again, they are part of the world subconcious as well.

Are we just pushing ourselves to war with all this talk?

It's interesting to think of it in a psychological manner, the world is about revolution right now and talks of war every day. How much of that is inching us closer to it?

I remember a day and age where peace reigned conversation, not war....it remained peaceful for a time.

Maybe that's the enlightment we are searching for? The realization that we make happen what we believe and it's time to reshape our subconcious to a goal more amiably accepted worldwide?
It wouldn't be hard. All we have to do is think about it and make sure what we do supports that goal. If we find others detracted we correct their course and continue on.

Imagine what we could do if we put the worlds minds together? Right now we are silo'ed off, one people from another whether it's due to race, religion, creed or colour. When the barriers of the silo's are gone, what's left?

Which of course, is a lot of crap, to put it bluntly ....

Mr. Adolf Hitler, was a little guy with dark hair ... and an ugly nose.

He came to power, because Hindenburg was old and frail, and used "propaganda" to let the German people think, that Hindenburg actually agreed to him.

It is because of Hitler, that YOU won the war ... he is YOUR ally, and EUROPE's traitor.

And if you want proof of that, you look at Prescot Bush and the nazi gold, along with his son and grandson work. There is no doubt anymore ...

And to be frank, an American Mao Ze Dong ... would do the lot of you some good.

He took the rich, famous and the "mighty" upper class and put them in labor camps, and had the public beat them daily. Maybe we should take "the warmongers" and allow the public of Iraq to beat them daily, for a couple of years ... maybe that would them respect the lives of others.
