I still say that the Dutch have the right to splash one of 'em.
Where do the Dutch enter into this?
Not that I disagree with you, but unless they threaten lives there's no call for shooting one down. There has to be other ways to f--- with them without making a declaration of war.

Right...sorry, 40. I thought you were referring to the referenced story, which did not make a mention of a Dutch intrusion.
I'm in full agreement with you...but shooting down a Russian plane isn't going to make things any better. They DO need to be taken down at some point, though. If they keep up with the intrusions it's only a matter of time before a NATO plane puts a missile up one of their behinds and puts them down.
Yeah, I know. Still, I think (morally, karmic-ally) that the Dutch should get a free pass to drop one of 'em that wanders into their airspace.
I mean, for what other reason would a Bear wander into Dutch airspace, except to be provocative?

Vlad the Imp is certainly trying to bluff his way through Ukraine. I don't think he's going to like the outcome if he manages to actually draw the US's attention.

They make him look taller.
I believe that it is a still from a political debate. The fat chicken in the hat is the state sponsored reform candidate. :))
