Paris under attack

Interesting set of chess moves between Russia and America right now.

Russia is adding 40 nuclear missiles to its arsenal.

U.S. is looking at placing tanks, artillery and F-22s into eastern Europe.

Russia sold 24 SU-35 fighter jets to China.

NATO just formally invited Montenegro to join.

Russia is creating a 2nd airbase in Syria and sending surface to air missiles there. Reports of increased number of Russian troops in Syria. Russia has placed electronic jamming units in Syria.

NATO is about to vote on which "package" (no specifics) to implement to bolster Turkey's air defenses. Britain has said it will place fighter jets in Turkey after the vote. Spain has Patriot missiles there.

Russia broke a missile treaty with the US banning medium range, land based ICBMs (INF Treaty). They have developed and tested said missiles but not deployed them yet.

Russia is discussing the sale of their S-400 anti air missile systems with China.

America and Russia are building up their artic capabilities.


So basically Russia and America are turning into real rivals. Any front they can bicker and posture on they are.

Interesting. Not so much playing both sides as it appears an attempt to concentrate them in a location outside Russia.

Either way I don't trust Russia.

There are those that think Russia is the bigger threat to America than these terrorist groups.

I saw a brief chance at America and Russia working together on this issue after Paris. But Turkey took care of that.

We are watching the birth of Cold War II
