Did Putin Just Threaten Nuclear War?

By Elizabeth Nelson

Many of us are too young to remember the Cuban Missile crisis and Reagan easing our fears by ending the Cold War, so no one here in the states batted an eye, and it went unmentioned on all of the Lame Stream Media Channels, when Putin decided he'd start talking about reopening oneof his major Cold War spy base in Cuba, just 150 miles off the Florida coastline. Of course, Putin now denies the report on his own Kremlin web page, but what else would we expect him to do? Now Putin is throwing around Nuclear War innuendos, and do we remember why that base was shut down in the first place?  

Flashback: The base was set up in 1964 after the Cuban missile crisis had brought the U.S. and Soviet Union close to confrontation over Moscow’s proposal to place nuclear weapons on Cuban soil. Cuba Confidential

Putin's nickname for Obama is fitting, "paper tiger." This man isn't stupid or weak, which is why Time named him "Man of the Year" and Forbes calls him "the most powerful.  He pays attention to what our Empiric Occupier tells the press, and he understands that he has no backbone and no love for this Country. 

Evoking startling images of siege and empire, Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday struck a defiant pose overthe deployment of troops and tanks in eastern Ukraine, declaring that Russiahas no plans for “large-scale conflicts” but reminding the world that hepresides over a nuclear-armed state.

“It'sbest not to mess with us,” Putin said, referring to Russian separatist fightersin Ukraine with a term that dates back to the era of the Russian empire — “NewRussia militia” — and likening their battle with Ukrainian army forces toSoviet citizens' heroic resistance during the German Nazi siege of Leningrad.

Putin does what the lemmings in our Country don't, he listens to not only the words  that spew from between Obama lying lips, but he watches his actions as well.  Like when he told al-Assad,  “we have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized, that would change my calculus. That would change my equation."

Then Putin would watch our blamer-in-chief put his sparkly flip-flops on and dance his famous dance before the entire world,

 "I didn't set a red line, the world set a red line, my credibility is not on the Line, it was not my redline, the world's creditability is on the line, it was the National Communities Red Line."

It only gets worse, but of course, Obama's credibility has never been a question, because he would have to have it to question it.  Sadly, Obama makes no bones about televising, to the entire world, that "we don't have a strategy," against ISIS, or anyone for that matter, and that the "military isn't our only tool." Because honestly, our best tool in the woodshed is always going to be our last resource put on the table - because he's afraid to be compared to Bush, just as we saw with Syria. Our dullest tool in the box, Obama, will only do things with a political motive in mind. Options that will benefit his career and Muslim brotherhood, not our Country, and Putin, our who no longer trust or respect us allies and our enemies who no longer fear us understand this fact.

So, is it any wonder that Putin feels emboldened to voice a not so veiled nuclear threat against our spineless and feckless empiric leader? “Thank God, I think no one is thinking of unleashing a large-scale conflict with Russia. I want to remind you that Russia is one of the leading nuclear powers,” Putin said during a visit to a Kremlin-sponsored youth camp, clearly aiming to marshal public support for a military campaign that has brought international isolation and increasingly stringent economic sanctions."

Reagan was able to end the Cold war because he came at it from a position of strength, knowing that weakness invites a fight. Romney had it right too, that Russia is our Geopolitical threat and because of a "failed" reset button and Obama's continued weak policies, the Cold War is back.  I'm sure he'll just blame it on "Climate Change," because it's everyone else's fault but his own.

Romney, and his "clear eyes" were almost prophetic here, "I certainly wouldn't give Putin more flexibility. After the election, Putin will get more backbone."  So, how do you like your "flexible" vote now?

If only Obama was only as proficient at attacking terrorist threats as he is at attacking the GOP and his tiny golf balls, our Nation would be safer as a whole.
