1. Please learn how to read people. The headline had the words "off
the Florida coast". Where exactly do you think Cuba is out there? It's
off the Florida coast.
2. This is very similar to how the Cuban missile crisis began in 1962.
3. The distance from Cuba to the Florida tip is 90 miles. More
importantly, the distance from Cuba to Washington,DC is 1110.8 miles, or
well within range of intermediate range missiles. We don't need to even
address nuclear weapons.
4. 450,000 troops are more than sufficient to protect us. It's a
cutback of 5.6%, a far less cry from the 25% reduction Chaney advocated
in June of 1990.

5. Warfare is absolutely changing, and technology is playing a huge
role. We still need a few human beings, but nothing like our dinosaur
armies of today, or the tanks, planes, and guns we're not even using.
6. Sequestration has played a marked role in forcing military
cutbacks. Congress wanted this, and so did the people who elected them.

7. Putin, in his afterglow of Sochi, recognizes the Western countries
need him. We need him to help maintain stability all over the world.
From Syria, to Africa, to the Ukraine and the doors to Europe, and the
entire East like China,North Korea, and Indo-China. Include a major
influence in South American countries like Venezuela, Brazil, and Peru,
Panama, and Chile.Russia is a wealthy super power, and we just refuse to
recognize how egregious they really can be.

Are you getting this picture yet? Everywhere we are, the Russians are
and/or have been. There is nothing new happening, just more power, and
money at stake.
8. Putin is on his third term, with 65% of the vote. He is the new old
Russia.
