US/Russian tension rises
Russia is building up its nuclear submarine numbers in the Gulf of Arabia and has moved Pacific and Black Sea Fleet battleships to the region . It armies and air forces are also on a build up.
US nuclear-powered submarine of the Los Angeles class was spotted yesterday near the shores of the Kamchatka Peninsula during military exercises of the northeast Russia group of troops.
The submarine left Russian waters after being followed by naval planes for several hours. The military believe that the submarine was on a reconnaissance mission, watching the exercises taking place on the Peninsula.
Large-scale exercises by the Pacific Fleet are scheduled for the August of this year.
With such a build up by Russia, NATO which now directly cotrols sections of the Irish Army and who have already volunteered to "take over" Iraq as a means on bridging the US/European sham dispute, will demand national military service and/or conscription.
Romano Prody this week described NATO as "an arch the joins the US and Europe. We have to build the European pillar yet(the European Army), but NATO is the bridge that joins America and Europe."
This is how Euprope hopes to get its slurp from the swill trough of stolen Iraqi oil. The UN too is being used as a front for giving Russian, France and others their share of the spoils. But that Boy George is just so greedy now he has possession/occupation he doesn't want to share. Well, does the school-bully ever share with his lackes?

Sorry.
I didn't think anyone was still bleeting that old Bush mantra.
No it's not called "shadow manoevers" its called "spying". And the bit where they ran away like gutless chickens is called "running away like gutless chickens"
You were in the US armed forces were you.?I was, and I know what it is called.BTW for your info,it is not called running away,and yes your pals the N Koreans,Chinese and Russians do it as well.So I suppose they are gutless chickens and they run away too,acording to your peacenick logic.Still I guess it would be too much to expect you to understand seeing that i doubt you ever served your country in any shape or form .!
