The Russia Thread

[norland2424]

Since it is the Russia thread, I thought I'd wade on into this mess a little bit.  If nothing else but to
keep Uncle Duke interested.  :

What does Ivan keep in his bag of tricks that is any good?

He has a clever little intelligence gathering boat called the Sarov class.   Unique in that it uses
diesel electric propulsion but uses a small reactor to charge the batteries.  This makes it quiet as a
thief with the ability to stay submerged for up to 20 days.  Officially it is a technology demonstration
platform but with its unique capabilities it should be able to gather all kinds of intelligence.  There
is only boat in this class - the Sarov itself and it is new - being commissioned in 2008.

has it had any deployments since 2008?

... why don't you check the index of cnn.com? Everything someone like you needs to know is found there.

[Yorkshire pud]

Really? How do you know? Have you met him?  Did he give you his curriculum vitae?!  :

You're really incredibly bad at this, norland! Maybe stick to just the ad hominem attacks. 

When you first saw that, did you straightaway find out what it meant; decide to use it at any opportunity, and convince yourself you understood Latin?

It's hard to remember when I was 10, pud. Any other red herring queries to distract from the actual discussion?

Come on!! Five years ago isn't that far in the past; young to have a meth addiction I agree.

Yeah, that's right...and it's Dr. Howser to you! 

[Jackstar]

Fun fact: only 28 U.S. states allow for the medicinal use of cannabis, but prescription methamphetamine is available in all fifty.

y'all so jelly

[Yorkshire pud]

Yeah, that's right...and it's Dr. Howser to you! 

Course it is. You to grips with sticking plasters?

Dunno.  I suspect it probably just gnarls around up in the Barents Sea most of the time.

They might be using Sarov as a testbed for the nuclear torpedo they have been working on.  That
thing is supposed to be able to deliver like 100 megatons of fun with an unlimited range.

Sorry, I'm American. I don't speak British, pud.

You talk utter shite. Its amphetamine sulphate you're referring to. Sometimes used for Parkinsons disease.

Neither do I. I speak English.

that would be the prefrect way to bring down a whole carrier group in one blow.

You think Alex Jones is Kronkite for the 21st century, go figure that one!

Still waiting for someone you think is currently more so.

Fire one into a harbor and the best missile defense system in the world is useless.

[Yorkshire pud]

On the strength of saying Trump would be POTUS? Are you fucking serious?

Jones 'predicted' anyone refusing the flu jab in 2009 would be interred in 2010, in FEMA camps and made to have it. Not sure why because its effacy only lasts a short while and is changed nearly every year anyway.

Jones 'predicted' Obama was going to steal everones gurrns (many many times), still waiting for that one.

Jones said in 1999 Russia had launched a nuclear attack on the USA because the computers reset to 0.

Yeah..he's Cronkite alright. That isn't journalism.

i do wonder if our sonar detection boeys would pick that up in time

Yes, I am serious. I notice you have to go back quite a way to try to discredit him but how about the last couple years? Also, didn't Obama try to steer domestic policy to banning more and more guns? 

[Yorkshire pud]

Oh, those are just ones I remembered, but it says much about his reputation on having his finger on the pulse! Obama had most of what he wanted to do stymied in Congress. Jones knew that, but made the point anyway. He knew Obama couldn't take anyone's guns but his guilible listeners obviously thought so..

I once registered on Jones's forum and inspite of Jones' proclamations about 'freedom' and ' free speech' , had my post and account removed because I asked a question about the flu vaccine internment plan. That's the thing with any woo woo asshat, they love freedom, except when it looks a threat to them.

Alright! I get it, baby! You prefer established propagandists to Cronkite types. No biggie. Different strokes and all that rot.

I won't argue with you that he's gotten things wrong, has often peddled in disaster porn, etc. but again, you're having to go back 8 years to discredit him. Do you actually have any journalists, newsmen who you would like to put forward as a likely candidate to be crowned this generation's Cronkite?

As I said. Stopped clock right twice a day.

As for top journalist: try Jeremy Bowen. Alex Jones couldn't tie his shoe laces.

i do wonder if our sonar detection boeys would pick that up in time

I read an article that claimed a range of 5400nm and a speed of 65mph.

We would have to be on alert and have assets in the area even if the sonobuoys picked it up.
