They do this shite all the time. They aren't dump enough to attack a NATO country. You do have to watch what goes on in the Arctic though.

And then there's this: Russia Modernizing Army and Nuclear Weapons quote: The chief of Russia’s armed forces said on Friday a strong nuclear arsenal will ensure military superiority over the West as Russia seeks to fulfill a multi-billion dollar plan to modernize its forces by 2020.
Bro, Russia is trending towards default and full on economic collapse. Of course their "Chief of Armed Forces" is blowing smoke.

What are they going to use for money?

Solid response. I post a link to now two articles discussing Russia's brazen attempts to secure military superiority and/or threats to the West, and I'm met with incredulity by some, and downright idiocy by others.
So "shite is about to get real" may be overstating it, but Putin is spiraling down into his psychosis more by the day and he's got henchman with plans to bring about the second coming of the USSR, or some semblance thereof. Their economy may be on the brink of collapse, but don't think for an instant that will somehow keep them from going to war. In fact, it may be the impetus for it.

Maybe so, but I definitely don't like the idea of a psychotic with a finger on the trigger of a nuclear weapon.

If they really wanted to nuke the UK, they would send ICBM's not nuclear bombers. Putin is like the jock who can't let go of his high school days.

Right, he longs for the days when they were regarded as a feared super power but he doesn't have the scratch to form his glorious Red Army again. Especially now that oil has plummeted.

Desperate measures from a country on the brink of collapse.
I doubt things are about to "get real". But one thing that history has taught us is that when great powers are put into desperate situations oftentimes they will resort to desperate measures. While unlikely at this point, it is not impossible that as things deteriorate in Russia, they eventually take the desperate step of striking west to reclaim their former possessions in Eastern Europe.

The problem is that this only makes him all the scarier. He's a loon and he's in command of one of the largest standing armies in the world and has control over 1600 active nuclear missiles. The world would be a better place if the guy were no longer on it. All I'm saying.

Anyone ever read red storm rising by Tom Clancy?
I read it right after I got to Germany back in 88. it was an awesome book but considering where I was, it also scared the shite out of me.
