I've Been Thinking:
Putin gave his State of the Union Address yesterday. The speech was filled with pride and power.
It is the eve of an election campaign for Putin. He will most certainly win another 6 year term.
During his speech Putin claimed that despite the US, Russia is winning the arms race.
"I want to tell all those who have fueled the arms race over the last 15 years, sought to win unilateral advantages over Russia, introduced unlawful sanctions aimed to contain our country's development: all what you wanted to impede with your policies have already happened" ... "You have failed to contain Russia."
Putin also announced that Russia now has a nuclear powered underwater drone and a hypersonic missile. This hypersonic nuclear powered missile can travel Mach 5 which is five times the speed of sound. It has practically unlimited range.
"No one in the world has anything like that," he said. "It may appear someday, but by that time we will develop something new."
Sounding much like a cartoon character he said: "No one has listened to us." ..."You listen to us now."
Finally, Putin asserted that Russian weapons will preserve world peace when he said: "We aren't threatening anyone, we aren't going to attack anyone, we aren't going to take anything from anyone," ... "The growing Russian military might will guarantee global peace."
