I'm really starting to wonder who are the two that voted to throw the Baltics to Russia like a bone to a rabid dog... no one posted to defend that position. |

Must have been the lowest bidder. Saw another photo of the "armed guard" at the building making sure the quarantined folks stay that way.
Rent-a-cops.
Somebody is not taking this shit seriously. |

The 45s, have no anti ship missile armament, no torpedoes and can't mount rocket fired torpedoes in the vertical launch cells. A big short fall for a class sold as a high tech anti submarine ship.

This incident allows one to make a case for ending all regular commercial air traffic into or out of the affected countries. Aid personnel and supplies can go in on charter flights or gov't/military planes. |

Now, unless you're sleeping around a lot, sharing needles or playing with dead bodies, I don't expect you'll catch it. Ebola... |

They asked for Product X, and instead received Product Y.

There was nothing at all wrong with those submarines when they were in service with the Royal Navy. In fact, they were probably the best diesel submarines in the world.
