Thoughts on this?

In light of what is happening in the Black Sea region, I don't really think this is a good idea. What are your guys' thoughts?

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

  Why would discussion of world news get this thread locked?

  Countries buy and sell arms everyday. Two ships are a drop in the bucket. How Many lazer guided bombs does it take to get to the center of the hull?  :ahand

Sorry, I hadn't considered that. I guess its not really appropriate. I'll think it through before I post next time.

Not a big issue, imo. 

It isn't like Russia can deploy these ships tomorrow, even next month, or even in six months.  By then I believe both sides will stop rattling their sabres, grabbing their crotches, and yelling obscenities back and forth. Hopefully. 

Besides, it isn't like Russia needs those two ships to invade Ukraine anyways.
