So, does Putin:<br /><br />1) Drop a sub on top of the site till a salvage boat arrives. (Limited Turkish protests, reasonable ability to monitor activity around the wreck)<br /><br />2) Put some ships out there. (More Turkish protests and more traffic in the area, harder to monitor the wreck)<br /><br />3) Hang back and see what the U.S. will do. (Risky, but nice potential for embarrassing Donnie)<br /><br />4) Suck up to Turkey to keep U.S. divers away. (Interesting anti-NATO and EU play) <br /><br />What does Donnie do:<br /><br />1) Beat his chest and tweet he's ordering a carrier to the site. (Cue much Naval head bashing)<br /><br />2) Try to sneak a team in to inspect the wreck and salvage intelligence. (Very difficult, especially that close to Russian ports)<br /><br />3) Say nothing, do nothing.<br /><br />4) Ask why the Navy can't ram the spy boat off the U.S. coast.CenterPuke88https://www.blogger.com/profile/17770056621255249861noreply@blogger.com
