Should've Hellfire'd their butts.
Not the first time the Russians have downed drones. Drones work well against sheep molesters in the third world. Not so much against a modern military.Take yer' Russian fighters and stick em!

Why does anyone cares who owns Crimeas turnips :old:
I don't think that would be wise considering the state the US Military and the World Economy is at this point.
I would put my old platoon against any Russian battalion any day. (http://i62.tinypic.com/16gn61c.gif)
Let them have turnips and they'll want someone else's parsnips.

How old and how well-equipped is your old platoon?
Not old and we equip our Ranger Batts. very well. :aok The only reason I'm not still there is because of getting hit (literally HIT) by an RPG in the knee in Iraq (it exploded on the wall behind me), which ended my career. Too bad, they let me return to my unit after getting shot in A'stan. I'd give anything to go back, but it would take waivers from three doctors to do so, and I've never been able to find one that would. :(

Is everyone outside the US an enemy?
Is everyone outside the US an enemy?
With people like Plawranc GScholz and yourself living in supposedly friendly countries.. I'd say yes. :aok
Is everyone outside the US an enemy?
Most of the comments seem to be very unrealistic, remember that the worst mistake you can do on a battlefield is underestimating your enemy.
Apparently after the Koreans and Syrians after finished we are going to invade the US :rofl
Its really does look to be ingrained into the US culture. History makes future lessons from those not willing to remember the past.
Blindly :rofl
Thank goodness we have a class system :old:
like they have in the US
I predict in 2 months time it will the benefits of slip on shoes against laces in the media :old:

One has to wonder why so many people blindly believes claims by, what passes for, a Russian Govt. http://defensetech.org/2014/03/14/pentagon-denies-downed-u-s-drone-report-in-crimea/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+originalnews%2Ffeed+%28Original+News%29
What are facts to do with this thread?Not just the EU and IMF, US interest groups via NGOs have paid billions to "protesters" to destabalize the ukraine this year. It was the orange revolution part II.
:rofl
Its Russias only warm water port and the EU and IMF are throwing coin at the Ukraine to antagonise the commies :)
Your all being owned by the gibberish
Give them new jersey
We are going to let Russia have it, and by this time in two weeks, it won't even be on the news anymore.
Not just the EU and IMF, US interest groups via NGOs have paid billions to "protesters" to destabalize the ukraine this year. It was the orange revolution part II.Yes it's nothing to do with the Ukranian people getting fed up with a corrupt regime paid billions by Putin to stay within the Soviet.............sorry Russian sphere. You should really stay away from those Russian propaganda and conspiracy theory websites. The Ukranians just want what most other Europeans have right now. To be part of west and the EU. Not revert to some old soviet style gulag regime which Putin is hell bent on restoring. Putin is an old style Communist, nothing more nothing less. You'd have thought the Russians had learned their lesson on that one. :rolleyes:
We cant allow that due to the signing of the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Security_Assurances
According to the memorandum, Russia, the U.S., and the UK confirmed, in recognition of Ukraine becoming party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and in effect abandoning its nuclear arsenal to Russia, that they would:
Respect Ukrainian independence and sovereignty within its existing borders.
Refrain from the threat or use of force against Ukraine.
Refrain from using economic pressure on Ukraine in order to influence its politics.
Seek United Nations Security Council action if nuclear weapons are used against Ukraine.
Refrain from the use of nuclear arms against Ukraine.
Consult with one another if questions arise regarding these commitments
Treaties have a good use traditionally in Russia. They are always lacking toilet paper.
Yes it's nothing to do with the Ukranian people getting fed up with a corrupt regime paid billions by Putin to stay within the Soviet.............sorry Russian sphere.

You'd have thought the Russians had learned their lesson on that one. :rolleyes:Riiight western financeers had nothing to do with ousting the elected ukrainian leaders who were pro russian. Its all just russian propoganda.

BBC radio 4 had a political analyst on who was a Yank, stating it was the EU and IMF, do you think he was a commie?Do you have a link?
Or maybe one of those neutral countries who keep out if wars :)
The present government in the Ukraine is elected?
Riiight western financeers had nothing to do with ousting the elected Ukrainian leaders who were pro Russian. Its all just russian propoganda.
Is it true that russia is allowed by treaty to have up to 26,000 troops in the crimea?
Ohhhh
this thread is so going to be locked...
The present government is build of parties that were elected in the current parliament. i.e. it has the support of parliamentary majority as any other civil government. The president was replaced... because he run away.
West does not care about Ukraine... that is probably the biggest Ukrainian problem right now.
So yes... it is mostly right propaganda.
BTW the funniest thing today (if you call it is funny) is to read one of the Kremlin connected news channels rt.com... It is like the opposite of a common sense and basic understanding tells you. Like the "man in green" in Crimea are not Russian army at all and the are local "self defence" groups.
What is even more funny that they still lie without any basic shame when in the period of facebook, internet and all other globalisation goodies you can catch them in 5 seconds...
They allowed to have troops inside the Russian military bases (Russia pay Ukraine to park the fleet there as they don't have better bases in the black sea). But they aren't allowed to leave the base, especially armed with armored vehicles and blockade the entire Crimea...
WAS IT ELECTED!!!!!!!!!!!?
don't ignore the facts they were not elected
Typical gibberish

Im sorry I said that about your mum.:rofl
Some facts about crimean attorney Natalia Poklonskaya you may probably not know.
Natalia is 33 years old crimean attorney. She is divorced and has a daughter. She seems a real good girl: she plays piano and draws, probably she attended music and art school in her childhood.
Natalia worked as attorney for 12 years, according to her own words, and just sometime ago her workplace was in Kiev, in main attorney office of Ukraine. I don't know much about attorney's job in western countries, but in ex-USSR countries attorney's work is very significant: they take part in investigations, act as accusers in courts, collect petitions from citizens and check if police and courts maintain the laws. People often think they are more trustworthy than police and judges.
Her career seems very successful and productive for me. She tells about numerous criminals and gangs she sent to jail. Her most well known enemy was "bashmaki" gang, one of the biggest and strongest gangs in Ukraine, famous for their criminal wars, for using RPG (and missing, destroying some unrelated building by mistake), jailbreaks, murders of police, former "alpha" (russian analogue of SWAT) members and hundreds of another crimes. Her current rank is called "adviser of justice".
During the events in Kiev, she was working in main attorney office in Kiev. She is the witness of Maidan and her harsh words about new ukrainian goverment should be considered along with any other evidencies, because she saw everything with her own eyes.
After the putsch in Kiev, she left attorney office and returned to Crimea. Crimean council of ministers offered her to take over a post of crimean attorney and she accepted it. It happened several days before referendum.
After her new appointment she recieved a letter from Kiev with a notification, that she's no longer attorney and adviser of justice, Kiev started investigation of her actions and even tried to ruin her reputation, but could only found some fotos you can now see everywhere. They are pretty usual photos every beautiful woman should have, but officials in Kiev called it "ribald" and acted histerically. Probably they just couldn't find anything dirty about her at all.
Just after referendum another provocation happened. Ukrainian soldier and crimean man were killed by some unknown person. According to Natalia's words it's very similar to killer, who shot people on Maidan and acted as a calamity trigger to Kiev. Now she's hunting him and preventing bloodshed and chaos in Simferopol. Maybe she's even saving our lives right now.
Whats the sword in snake thing?
Bit like those narzzie propaganda posters :rofl
The crimeans are taking a lesson from the ukranians. Put a pretty little lady's face on the leadership so adversaries look like big bad meanies on the world stage.
