#1 In other words - Please, America, rearm and protect us from spending our own resources.

The Russian enclave of Kaliningrad sits west and on the blind-side of the Baltic states

Formally part of Germany known as Prussia. Can you say 'West Bank' boys and girls.

#2 NOt to be outdone by RUSSIA, US + RUSSIAN OWG CO-SUPERPOWER SIBLINGS CHINA + IRAN have also increased their "A2/AD" capabilities agz the US-Allies in their respective regions.

OVERCOMING RUSSIAN, CHINESE, + IRANIAN, OTHER? "A2/AD" CAPABILITIES = LETTING THEM ACUIRE THEIR "SPHERE(S) OF INFLUENCE" AS BEFITING A CO-SUPERPOWER ... ...

To wit,

* TOPIX > [Channel News Asia] US PATROL [SCS = USS Lassen] SOUGHT TO AVOID PROVOCATION, NOT RE-CONFIRM CHINA ISLAND CLAIMS.

* SAME > [HuffPo] CHINESE ADMIRAL'S VISIT TO IRAN: ERA OF US DOMINANCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST IS ENDING.

* YAHOO NEWS > [FT.com] CHINA HAS TO LEARN TO BE A "GREAT POWER" [OWG Co-Superpower in charge of East Asia + WESTPAC?].

DITTO EARLIER OR OLDER MSM-NET ARTICS AS PER RUSSIA + IRAN.

Different OWG GFU + Regional Co-Superpower, but roughly the SAME PRINCIPLE(S) APPLY.

* LUCIANNE > [Gateway Pundit] OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WILL NO LONGER CONDUCT [Counter-Terror] OPERATIONS AGZ [Post-Mullah Omar Afghan Taliban] - THEY ARE OUR FRIENDS NOW.

BFFS = BEST FRENEMIES FOR-E-V-A-R!, like POST-P5+1 NUKE DEAL, WHY-YES-WE-ARE-A-WEST-APPROVED/SUPPORTED-OWG-CO-SUPERPOWER-NOW NUKULAAR IRAN???

I'm a'guessin the US is expecting the Post-MO Afghan Taliban to stay effec isolationist while also resisting any ISIS/ISIL set up in AFPAK.

* REALTED BHARAT RAKSHAK > US NO LONGER CONDUCTING OPERATIONS AGZ TALIBAN - DAILY TIMES.PK | US BELIEVES ISLAMIC STATE HAS NO "INSTITUTIONAL" PRESENCE IN PAKISTAN, AFGHANISTAN [Local Afghan or AFPAK-specific, Organized Command-N-Control links to IS 'Capital" Raqqua in ME], PENTAGON NOW SEES THE [Afghan]TALIBAN AS RECONCILIATION PARTNERS.
