mushroom 13,222 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 How much of our gas comes from Russia? I know 25% of it comes in LNG tankers from the Middle East because it passes within about a mile of my house and gets pumped out at terminals up the haven from me. The West can condemn and bluster all they want, they showed their hand over Syria. Russia will take not a blind bit of notice because we look weak and our rhetoric hollow. The Russian people are loving it and I think it don't bode well for the future. We've seen what can happen in the past when a country gets emboldened on a national level and is appeased for a long time.. It won't end well IMO.. About 30% of Europe's gas does. Guess it's the BBQ to cook on for me then lol does dried dog shit work well as a fuel substitute? :laugh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gonetoearth 5,144 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Russia gave up its empire because like all empires it became to big and costly to run , the old gaurd left a poorly equipped army navy and air force. , they kept the base at the crimear because its there only warm sea port. The have no were near the punch that the soviets were. The have a conscripted force still , putin had every right to do what he has done , lets say Scotland went indi Then surrounded. Faselane and some one over threw eck lol.

Brigzy 1,298 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Everything is "strategic"; we don't keep the Falklands and Gibraltar because we love the people, it's because thy are strategic. Same as our sovereign bases in Cyprus, strategic. Accension Island is ours, but we rent it out to the Yanks as an air base. Russia has sovereign air and naval bases in Crimea, so why shouldn't, they defend them ? If Russia tried to take over Cyprus, as the EU are trying to do with Ukraine, wouldn't we be pissed off ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
