Russian Fighters Buzz US Carrier

WASHINGTON (AP) *-- U.S. fighter planes intercepted two Russian bombers
flying unusually close to an American aircraft carrier in the western
Pacific during the weekend.

A U.S. military official says that one Russian Tupolev 95 buzzed the
aircraft carrier USS Nimitz twice, at a low altitude of about 2,000 feet,
while another bomber circled about 50 nautical miles out. The official was
speaking on condition of anonymity because the reports on the flights were
classified as secret.

The Saturday incident, which never escalated beyond the flyover, comes amid
heightened tensions between the United States and Russia over U.S. plans for
a missile defense system based in Poland and the Czech Republic.

Hey Burr-interesting thread. FWIW and without taking this thread in
another direction or hijacking it I remember posting in here maybe in
02-03-04 I'll try an find it- about Russia.
I had mentioned a little about end time prophecy and mentioned that
the collapse was a facade and that Russia and China were our enemies
and were ultimately going to get us and try an get Israel--which will
never happen.
I forget who it was that responded and went to berating me and calling
me a num-nut that Russia was finished sigh and the Bible was
garbage, I actually received some pretty bad email from that statement
I made. Funny how time shows things for how they really are. :-)
Russia has never missed a beat- they are doing nothing but getting
stronger and behind everything that is evil in this world IMO.
