Russian nuclear-capable bombers fly near Japan
2014-01-30
Russia's Defense Ministry said Tuesday two Tu-95 strategic bombers that can carry nuclear missiles have conducted training flights over the Pacific Ocean and the Okhotsk Sea.

The flights led Japan to scramble Air Self-Defense Force fighter jets, but the Russian planes flew over the high seas and did not violate Japanese airspace, the ministry said.
Probably not a big deal but cool video at link of the Russian bombers.

#2  IMO prolly has SSSSHHHHH ... CCCCCCC more to do at this time wid ...

* JAPAN TIMES > JAPAN, RUSSIA HOLD HIGH-LEVEL MEETING ON ISLE DISPUTE.

Ptagmatically, Russia fears the Chinese PLA threat to Sakhalin + -Stans + Russian Far East, etc. in addition to same from labor/expat-led economic migration.

* ION DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS, WORLD MILITARY FORUM > [Vitaly Kashin = Moscow-based CAST Think-Tank] RUSSIAN EXPERT: AT CURRENT TRENDS, CHINA OVER NEXT TEN YEARS [2014-2024/25] WILL HAVE PROCURED OVER 600-PLUS NUCLEAR WARHEADS TO COMPLETELY DESTROY OR OBLITERATE ASIAN RIVAL JAPAN.

More than Great Britain or France, but still less than the US + Mama Russia.

* RELATED TOPIX? > [Dong-A] CHINA WILL NOT ALLOW NORTH KOREA NUCLEAR DEVELOPMENT.

Which IMO means or infers that any LRBMS striking Japan in future will OFFICIALLY be Chinese PLA and only Chinese PLA, as opposed to being UN-OFFICIAL now, i.e. China-ordered, DPRK-launched???

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > 2014: THE BEGINNING OF A NEW ERA FOR PLAN BUILDUP.

* WORLD NEWS > [Zee News] IFF THE US + JAPAN DON'T DETER CHINA, DOMINOS WILL FALL, all over East Asia + possibly beyond.

VERSUS

* BIGNEWNETWORK > [WSWS.org] JAPAN'S COMMUNIST PARTY SEEKS REGROUPMENT WID BOURGEOIS "LEFT" PARTIES.

1980's Gorbachevism = post-Cold War, post-9-11, [Commie-Socialist] "State Capitalism"???

* TOPIX > YEAR OF THE HORSE WILL BE A FIERY ONE: HK SEERS.

[AL "THE HELL YOU SAY" BUNDY here].
