#2 BWAAA!!!! Russia-once a great super power, now reduced to third world status hand wringing and cancelling over Status of Forces agreements. Sounds like they are going the way of the Philippines!!

#5 status? Rapidly approaching "Opfor" if you keep supporting Iran, NK, Syria, Hezbollah, et al. Sucks to be a former empire with an aging alcoholic populace, no economic base (except Stoli, thank you), selling weapons to your future Islamo-oppressers...

#6 This is sort like the guy who's talking about getting an apendectomy when he's really about to get an enema. Russia thinks it's sowing the whirlwind, when in reality, it's merely feeding the crocodile.

The less insight Russia has into our military ability, the better off we are. We know we can kick their @ss any time we want to. They know we can kick their @ss any time we want to.

Even the old Soviet military would have been a turkey shoot for us. Only their nuclear weapons posed any sort of substantial threat. Why do you think they so carefully crafted up Middle East terrorism and set it on our necks?
