What's the fear? That Russia will attack or invade the US? Please explain.

There is no fear. This story is nothing new.

We don't need Russian bombers coming near our military bases, especially in Guam. We station the B-2 and B-52 Bombers there.

Seems like the problem was handled just fine. This is the same old "Russia testing their limits" that has been going on since the days of the cold war. There was no attack here. Yet some of the same old pedantic neo-cons need to use a minor incident like this to take a jab at the president. Lame and predicable.

WHAT a load of RWNJ BULLS**T!

The only thing it shows is the Russians continue to play the same silly ass games they've been playing for at least 50 years, so much for the delusion Reagan ended the Cold War. And if you think the US doesn't play similar games you really need to wake up to reality.

EDIT: Well, on second thought, it also shows John Bolton's inablility to deal with his irrelevance.

We don't need Chicken Littles clucking their false alarms either, let them go play with their Joe McCarthy dolls and stay out of the way.

And a black democrat at that.
Worse yet, he's got a black wife.

Here you go. Get busy.

LOL....if this were an article where a Russian Bear Bomber had crashed under odd circumstances....you would point to the inconsistency of the picture as proof that something *sinister* was going on.

How do we know that you aren't just shilling for the military industrial complex?

It probably never happened.

But I'm just asking questions and so far we've seen too many wild inconsistencies to make this story believeable.
