Inside a Russian nuclear-bomber airbase

(2'55") From YT: "Russia is planning to fly more strategic nuclear bombers along European and US borders. It is being seen by the West as another move by the Kremlin to resurrect the country's military might. Sky's Moscow correspondent Alex Rossi reports."

The NATO designated Bear bomber is a relic stright from the 60s, unlike the B-52 it has not been incrementally upgraded over the years to keep up with the times, its 4 rotory engines are so loud deterent air patrols along the UK and US would hear the bomber before actually making visual contact. Occasionally submarine crews would pick up the Bear bomber ascoustics when they were flying overheard.

It's outlandish military wankery by the Kremlin, its a waste of human resources and fuel for the dubious benefit of looking hardcore. When in reality the illusion of might is simply another facade for a military that is still trying to recover and reconsitute itself.

well, the US pushed them to it with stupid moves like announcing to build missile defence shields and large military bases all over the former communist states in eastern europe, baltic states and in central asia. russia is rightly outraged by this aggresive expansionist politics...
eh, fuck it. i'm not gonna justify assholes on either side, it's just that i find this bias reporting very annoying.
"it's all right if WE do it but it's a matter of utmost concern if somebody else gets the same idea" shit is what makes americans the arrogant bastards everyone likes to hate these days. and then they ask themselves: "why do they hate us so much, we're the good guys, right?"
well, wrong. US is far from being the good guy and even if it was has no right to impose their view on the world with their ridiculously massive military power while endlessly preaching about democracy and human rights. seems like the whole world knows this except the americans. that's why when america finaly eats it self and the armaggedon comes - i'll be ready, laughing my ass of on the rooftop with spliff in one hand and burning stars-and-stripes in the other
fuck politics
