Read here about the Russian fleet sailing down to the med. Reportedly they are passing just off the coast from where I'm sitting right now. I'd like to say our military is monitoring their progress but it's Sunday and they're all on a day off.

Not that it matters, we haven't got a proper air force, navy or army for that matter. That single task force could sail in and annex the country in a couple of hours.
I must say Putin is playing an interesting game these day. Playing the great power game. Moving his chess pieces around the board. Throwing the Russian bear's weight around. Bit like before the first world war.
A dangerous game indeed.
