Obama sends special forces to Russian Border

SunUK: PRESIDENT Obama has deployed US special forces troops along Lithuania’s border with ‘aggressive’ Russia.

Tensions between Washington and the Kremlin have reached Cold War levels amid reports Vladimir Putin is deploying nuke-ready missiles in the Russian province of Kaliningrad – which borders Poland, Belarus and Lithuania.

And Lithuanian Defence Ministry spokeswoman Asta Galdikaite confirmed America has offered additional military support following Russia invasion of Crimea.

She said: “The United States was the first to offer additional safety assurance measures to the Baltic countries following the deterioration of the security situation in the region after the annexation of the Crimea”.

She added: “US Special Operations Forces presence in Lithuania is one of the deterrents” against military threats by Putin’s aggressive regime, reports the Express.

 Speaking with the NYT, US military chief Gen. Raymond T. Thomas revealed that America has a ‘persistent’ presence in the Baltic states bordering Russia.  more

  1. Are these the old military special forces — that wear ski masks, so their faces can’t reflect? Or the new military special forces — that wear strapped mittens, so their fingers can’t get into trouble?

  2. I think Putin and Trump have already been talking and have an agreement. Trump and Putin are on the same side as far as islamic terrorism is concerned and obama knows it – which is why he’s trying to start this sh*t before he leaves office. Putin is not going to let this a##clown manipulate him.

    Heck! If he really would burn it down — I mean burn it all down — there are plenty of people willing to put their popcorn aside, and redeploy the salt, themselves.

  4. He’s doing everything he can to start a war with Russia, just so he can fuck with Trump. Luckily, Trump and Putin are smart enough to realize what Prez Stompy Feet is doing. The only way anything will happen is if our SF guys are ordered to open fire. I doubt that they will obey such an order with only 16 days left in the man-child’s administration.

    Thank God that Trump won, If Hillary had won, we would already be at war with Russia.

  5. IF Special Forces are commanded to open fire on the Russians without provocation, they should flip around and shoot their commanders. Then the Military should enter wherever Prezzy Stompyfeets is and put him under protective custody..in Guantanemo, until further notice. He will miss the inauguration, and so should their purpleness Clintons.

    “start a war with Russia, just so he can fuck with Trump”

    Obama, Hillary, McCain — and an “army” of “not middle class deplorables” — have been ginning up confrontation with the evil Russkies for years. Trump may have been unexpected, but he’s not a cause. And, so far, he’s not an impediment.

  7. Thus the reason for my last sentence. You may want to check your anti Trump bias at the door for future posts. Trust me, you’ll be able to think and express yourself with a lot more clarity.
