U.S. can attack Russia in 2012-2015 - Russian military analyst MOSCOW. Feb 23 (Interfax-AVN) - After 2012-2015, the U.S. will be able to annihilate Russian strategic nuclear forces by a non-nuclear preemptive strike, said Konstantin Sivkov, the first vice president of the Russian Academy of Geopolitical Problems. "I declare that the likelihood of a military threat is great as never before now," Sivkov told Interfax on Saturday. Western military experts have recently started to talk about the possibility of attacking Russia and annexing its territory, Sivkov said. "Russia is supposed to be dismembered into three parts, with the Western part going to the European Union, the central part and Siberia to the U.S., and the eastern to China. This is a rough scenario," he said. Russian armed forces will be unable to successfully counter an aggression, Sivkov said. "At the present time, the conventional armed forces cannot properly perform their duties in a regional war, like the Great Patriotic War, even in theory. Even if fully deployed, their potential is limited even in local wars. The only factor that deters [the U.S.] now is the nuclear arsenal," he said. http://www.interfax.ru/e/B/politics/28.html?id_issue=11975866
Exactly! Where the heck did that come from? That is what the Russian website is posting. It is like they are stirring the cold war. That is suppose to be over. I don't want to go to war with anyone what is their problem?
Yeah. People are always analyzing the potential strategies of going to war. That's how countries roll.
Russia's economy has had money flooding in recent years thanks to oil revenue and other natural resources, Russia's military is now getting more funding and Russia has huge raw economic power and is just trying to throw it's weight back into the world.
If anything, the Russians will be claiming sovereignty in the great white lands of the North Pole and Arctic Circle area in the near future.
wow thats some crazy stuff by the russians... would never happen though never be able to get all there nukes ( ICBMs on there subs)
It is kinda scary that they are feeling the need to puff up so much though. It doesn't look good at all. I thought we were finished with Russia but as I read their websites... really it looks as if we are just getting started. They REALLY don't like us much.
LOL. The Russians have always 'puffed up' there ideological propaganda from claiming to have invented the first airplane to re-writing history in their children's textbooks.
the main reason for this is putin... he is trying to bring back the cold war attitudes, but its just more talking
