This, I'm sorry to say, is being provoked by George Bush.
We are being tested. Be on the look-out for increased spying activity. Be prepared.
Time to invite Putin over for another Texas style barbecue!
I remember back in 1968 when N Korea took the USS Pueblo. I was aboard the USS Ranger CVA-61 when Russian bombers came close to the ship. We scrambled 2 F-4's to intercept. One of our F-4's flew underneath the bomber just in case the Russians had any ideas. Has this Navy gone soft? Lets Iran gun boats get close and now this. It's time the USA gets some backbone and takes some action.
Except for the defense of the Chinese Government of Taiwan there is no reason for the U.S. Fleet to be in that area, so the is the CIA and the Defense department who are at the bottom of this, not an ignorant or scared president. A real president would have greatly reduced the size of the CIA and would also have restricted its power to act on its own like it has after Eisenhower left office. Kennedy tried to but you saw what they did to him.
