Hmm. Someone might want to send them a memo: The Cold War has been over for 10 years now. Sorry, you lost.

Maybe they should be looking for a wonder weapon that will let them find religious extremists in Chechnya instead, the US is Russia ally now....

Actually these are names of "groundbreaking", "ultimate", "with no analogues in NATO" and so on weapon systems, appeared in our press recently. Miserable attempts to assure citizens that our army has something to oppose to NATO or China.

Pravda (News) had devolved into the Russian Version of the National Enquirer. I wouldn' trust that rag or website news. The other Russian news outlet I think is called TASS. I think that translates into "Truth"

The russians use to say there is no news in "Truth"
And no truth in "News".

Duty now for the future comrade!

Here are our options. If the Russians or any other country with nuke and ICBM technology invents a way to avoid our defense systems, we HIT THEM NOW AND WE HIT THEM HARD!

The only thing keeping us alive is our ability to dish out severe punishement while blocking most of theirs. Once that is gone, it is open season on the USA.

This is very very bad mojo for us.

So what you are saying is that Russia should nuke the USA now before they develop the Star wars defence system?? Becourse when the US gets the ICBM defence system it will be open season on Russia??
Scary!!!

I don't think the Russians want a nuclear war anymore than the US, so even if they have a defence against ICBM'S they wouldn't think of attacking the US.

Come on guys, grow up! This not the Cold War anymore.

*puches sarcastic speech-button*
Besides we already know America is the best country in the world with the best army in the world.
And we all know you can't win guerilla battles; Vietnam anyone?
*Pushes sarcastic speech-button agian*

I hope I haven't stepped on too many toes...

Edit: typo's!
