| Of course it's brinkmanship. Just like the Russians whining about a defensive shield in Europe. Why would they oppose a defensive shield to protect from incoming missiles? Likewise, at the end of the day, what is the US going to do if Russia sends bombers to refuel in Cuba? The US sends bombers to refuel in the UK. Cuba/UK what's the difference?
These sort of strategic/tactical games are played at every level, between every nation, every day.
Some posters can't see it for what it is. |
