Uk Air Force intercepts Russian aircraft approaching uk

Looks like people are starting to get complacent about the War on Terror. Better give them something else to make them scared again.

Went to the shetlands last year on a motorbike jolly...visited the uk's most northerley radar early warning station(decomissioned)RAF Saxa vord...on the isle of Unst ... the museum there is small but very interesting... these incursions have been going on for a very long time sporadicly..its just Russia's way of heightening our senses...sabre rattling if you will....there have been hundreds if not thousands of these incursions.

I don't think we've got much the Russians would want. they might want to sell us something though.

A definite ramping up of activities/flights by the Russians.

People will say we are paranoid but a think there is more to it then general manoeuvre exercises

This was a regular occurrence during Cold War 1. Not sure if they slackened off during the inter-cold war years, or whether they just weren't interesting enough to report in the press.

Paranoia and fear are the main drivers behind this propaganda. Russia are the new/old enemy again and the tabloid press are doing their part to fuel the fire.
WAR is PEACE
FREEDOM is SLAVERY
Wake up people, turn off the News and stop reading the brainwashing press.

Russia is undeniably increasing its visible military presence and it's actions could easily be interpreted as the start of a new Cold War
