DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN?!

From Andrea Shea King's newsletter:

Russia is offering to modernize Cuba's deteriorating weapons systems – installed when the former Soviet Union was expanding worldwide – and it also wants to reactivate a sensitive electronic eavesdropping station on the nearby island at Lourdes, use Cuba as a base to refuel its bombers and a port to replenish supplies on its warships, according to a report from Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.

These developments emerged following the visit to Cuba in late September by Gen. Nikolai Makarov, chief of the Russian General Staff. Makarov met with Cuban President Raul Castro in Havana.

Cuba's Soviet-made military equipment has been falling apart. After an assessment, the Russian military has decided to undertake a comprehensive modernization. In addition, the Cuban army also will receive Russian military training.

Here we go again folks. Our president is rightfully perceived by the world, particularly the Russians, as weak (beyond weak would be my perception of him - my cat has more courage). Therefore, they start dipping their toe in the water of being aggressive toward our nation. Will our president, who thinks of himself as a modern day JFK do anything about it or will it be more chin music from The Won!?
