    I've got to admit that I was ignorant of the Russian expressed intent
    to arm their Baltic fleet with nukes because of the deal with Poland.

    I have not looked around online yet. No - I've spent the entire afternoon here, Spade, and thank you very much. Will YOU do my ironing?
    But where did you hear that? Did that info just break today? Talk about chilling! I watched it twice to make sure that is what you said.

    Tick,tick,tick - I'd better go do something to make
    sure it looks like I had a productive day - I'll
    be ironing with GUSTO at this point! But we have
    solved the world's problems - yes? Well we are
    trying to help, I think. bbl

      LOL...Your funny AnteUp. Another day of solving the worlds problems.

      The news about the threat hit the news on the Thursday, the 17th.

      Russia threatens to arm its Baltic fleet with nuclear warheads for the first time since the cold war, senior military sources were quoted as saying by the Sunday Times.

      The warning came after Thursday's agreement between Poland and the United States that will see a battery of American missiles established inside Poland.

      The plan infuriated Moscow and prompted a top Russian general to say Friday that the deal exposed Poland to attack, pointing out that Russian military doctrine permitted the use of nuclear weapons in such a situation.

      According to the British newspaper, the nuclear warheads could be supplied to submarines, cruisers and fighter bombers of the Baltic fleet based in Kaliningrad, a Russian enclave between Poland and Lithuania.

      The Times quoted a senior military source in Moscow as saying that although the fleet had suffered from under-funding since the collapse of communism, "That will change now."
