#1 Interestingly, neither Russia nor it's former satellite partners are throwing out the welcome mat for the Mohammedan. No sense in committing demographic suicide by re-populating The Motherland now is there ?

#2 One of the Great Games in the 1700s was to contain France by a series of alliances to deter expansion from its borders. The Soviets felt the same about American alliances in the 50s. Now someone in Moscow is concerned about the idiots in the EU doing nothing to stop what they may perceive as an Islamic effort to encircle Russia. Cut the people logistics from North Africa to the cheese eating surrender monkey's running the EU.

#3 Er This seems like Chocolate ration is increased news to me!

The west messed up Libya THEN the taps went on, AND the west's navies and GONGOs were there to aid people trafficking.

Don't piss down my leg and tell me it's raining.

#4 I'd suggest to the EU that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, but I'd be fined 5.000 Euros and charged with a hate crime.

I'm glad I took pictures.

#5 Now wait a minute. Is the real reason they got rid of Q'Daffy so they could start importing Africans to the EU?

Critical thinking AU, very critical indeed.

#8 Why do UK intelligence fear this move? Do they fear that he'll send more Muslims over then they currently allow (ha, ha, ha). You don't need to control the country to do that, you just need to bring in some ships.

My guess is Putin wants to control more oil and thus have more control over the price.

#9 The GRU and the Spetznaz was in Tripoli in 2013 when I was there.

What took everyone so long to make this discovery.

After the problems in Chechnya and others, the Russians KNOW who the enemy is and they are danged sure going to purge the gene pool.

Trump should get onboard with this before we find ourselves on the wrong end of another World Trade Center sized terrorist act.
