A Russian warship "aggressively approached" a U.S. Navy destroyer operating in the North Arabian Sea Thursday, ignoring warnings from the U.S. vessel and increasing the risk of a collision, the U.S. Navy said Friday.
"On Thursday, Jan. 9, while conducting routine operations in the North Arabian Sea, USS Farragut was aggressively approached by a Russian Navy ship," the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet, which oversees naval operations in the Middle East, said in a statement.
"Farragut sounded five short blasts, the international maritime signal for danger of a collision, and requested the Russian ship alter course in accordance with international rules of the road. The Russian ship initially refused but ultimately altered course," the statement said, adding "While the Russian ship took action, the initial delay in complying with international rules while it was making an aggressive approach increased the risk of collision."

They are poking and prodding and testing to see how much it will take to get US to blow them the hell out of the water so they can have a war... These faggots who run the country think the only way to make money is by wars... Why else would they acting aggressive for no reason??? Not to mention, they have been doing this for months now!!!
The bible is right, there will be another war it will be WW3 and everyone against US
TIME to see d several hundred 50 Cal shots over there ass.
That’s pretty much the entire Russian navy.
and Iran's ballistic missile's are all bought and of Soviet origin. We are just using the Middle East as the extension of the Cold War. Selling arms is big business. It's not about boarders or ideologies soldiers heroes or veterans it's global business. If it were not we would have wiped them out long before this.
Meh.
Meh,
I agree with you.
The US Military is the largest most advanced technically of any military in history. Its budget is greater than the next 5 Countries combined. It has been building for decades.
There is no reason any other Country would act aggressively towards the US Military.
Therefore, I don't believe the story.
I believe the US Government / Intelligence assets are planting a story as cover to legitimize a near future aggression. The US Government is completely corrupt and has not represented the American People for a long time now. It is out of control, aggressive, and criminal. It is also Facist in nature since it has virtually colluded with many global corporations to create wealth at the expense of human beings.
I don't believe the story.
You can believe it. But I'm not going to.
I'm with you 6:40

@4:14, You poor thing, you believe America, the land of greed, vice, and sin is God's country. No, America is Babylon the great. God said to come up out of her lest you take part in her suffering to come.
