war cries the Thief
as he sharpens his teeth
he wants the Emperor’s crown
red, white and blue
the apocalyptic stew
spewing out from volcanoes of steel
his fangs, the Thief now reveals
so make time today
cause tomorrow fades away
in a cloud of toxic rain
Empire’s falling
shopkeepers moan
slain king lays bleeding
the Thief takes the throne. . .
HAIL TO THE CHIEF ~~
“vas in druce ya oichen sinch by tish nee ya !” Your friends are very nice people !
Pump up a new rocket for a space race again heh ? …..and my rocket is bigger then your rocket. With the way the world is today, all you have to do is fire one of those things and the world will make a target out of you !
If the Russian government were really our government’s enemy, we wouldn’t ship them our nuclear waste. Just sayin.

They have enough waste of their own. It isn’t like they’re going to make a bomb out of just ours.
Is there ANY technical data to back-up this “new missle” claim?
How does anyone know that this was not some aged atlas II wannabe from the 1950′s?
All you got is ground footage from a bunch of scared rabbits showing a light in the sky at (gasp) night!
How about some follow-ups from your keyboard-warriors to flesh out some details that are meaningful rather than just acting like a parrot and repeating what the commies in charge are saying???
because you KNOW if comes out of a commies mouth it just haz to be true….right mr. editor, sir?!?
