According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, the country’s military vessels will be on permanent standby in the Mediterranean Sea due to a terrorist threat in Syria.
Editor’s note: Watch the video below. This is a vital analysis. As Russia can launch these missiles from any river, making them impossible to find and stop. The small ships used by Russia, even tugs and barges, places this supersonic platform within range of any potential target, an unstoppable platform the US is a decade from equaling.
“Due to the remaining threat of incursions by international terrorists in Syria, our ships carrying Kalibr cruise missiles will be constantly deployed in the Mediterranean Sea,” Putin said at a military meeting.
Speaking further, the Russian president said that the practice of distant sea campaigns and drills should continue.
“Some 102 sea campaigns by Russia’s ships and submarines are to take place,” Putin added.
At the same time, Vladimir Putin noted that Russia would continue reinforcing the maritime part of its nuclear forces to increase the role of the Russian Navy in the country’s nuclear deterrence.

What is the point exactly? It is great to have these wonder weapons, but as soon as an American or Israeli ship or plane gets within a hundred miles of Russian Warship, Russia stands down. The ships may as well stay in port. Safe the cost of fuel. If you think I am being cynical, guess again. It has happened too many times for the charade to have credibility at all.
Those putting any hopes on Russia are only going to be disappointed. At least while Putin is still the President. Perhaps one night there might be reports of “Gunfire” at the Kremlin and Putin will do a MBS on us.
The computer voice has a British accent, and the video would have more punch if they got Ice Cube to do the narration. Or Samual Jackson , and let him add his expletives.

How about a new name and shame initiative by VT editors, to name and shame, with pictures and full educational qualifications from any college or university in the world, of any and all potential employees like mathematicians, physicists, engineers, chemists, biologists, computer experts, etc. who accept new employment, whether at a specific location or as graduate students or professors on contract from Universities, to work on weapons of mass destruction for the purpose of killing innocent civilians and children by the terrorists in the U.S. Government or Israeli Governments? These potential criminals should have lifetime liability for crimes against humanity and should be hunted down and arrested and prosecuted anywhere in the world. This is what should have been done with the terrorists on the Manhattan Project which designed and manufactured the Atomic Bomb in WWII instead of idolizing these criminal terrorists. They are just as guilty as the pilots who flew the planes which dropped those bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
What do we call a person who will do anything for MONEY? A Congressman or Congresswoman, a Senator, a President, a Lawyer…. an engineer, a mathematician, a physicist, a chemist, a computer scientist, a biologist … all working on weapons of mass destruction to be used to kill innocent civilians…. or a WHORE or PROSTITUTE or “LADY of the NIGHT” or a billionaire in Israel or even a person with the name Netanyahu who is a dual citizen of Israel and the United States who evidently enjoy observing other human beings, like Palestinians suffer at their hands.
By the way, Israel did 9/11/01 about 17 years ago in New York with the aid of traitor terrorists Bush, Cheney, the cowardly traitor four star generals, all retired now on lavish undeserved obscene government paid pensions, some even with Secret Service Protection to aid in covering up their gross crimes against America. https://wikispooks.com/wiki/9-11/Israel_did_it
It is difficult to find words in polite English to describe this expletive deleted obscenity in America.
Americans are the biggest fools on planet Earth and well deserve their plight.
