NATO took control of a U.S. aircraft carrier this week as part of a preplanned military exercise that could not have come at a better time as it projects strength in the region as Russia appears ready to invade Ukraine.
Allied ships from the NATO Naval Striking and Support Forces Command and the U.S. Sixth Fleet initiated a series of patrolling activities across the Mediterranean Sea, within the framework of Neptune Strike 2022,' NATO said in a statement. Neptune Strike is a long-planned effort. It will be carried out until 4 February, and features the deployment of the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier aircraft carrier, along with its carrier strike group and air wing.
Neptune Strike 2022 highlights NATOs ability to integrate the high-end maritime capabilities of a carrier strike group to ensure high operational readiness across the Alliance and the defense and protection of all Allies, the statement concluded. It is the first time since the Cold War that a full US carrier group comes under NATO command.
The move comes as Russian President Vladimir Putin has amassed approximately 100,000 troops near the Ukrainian border and appears, according to the Biden administration, likely to invade the country.
The capability of SIXTHFLT and STRIKFORNATO combined staffs to enable a handover of the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group demonstrates the power and cohesiveness of our maritime forces and the NATO Alliance, said Vice Adm. Gene Black, commander, SIXTHFLT and STRIKFORNATO, said in a statement. NATOs command and control of a CSG is the result of decades of Alliance maritime interoperability.
Neptune Challenge gave our staffs an incredible opportunity to learn and grow together aboard our flagship, Mount Whitney, said Rear Adm. James Morley, deputy commander, STRIKFORNATO. The lessons we took from Neptune Challenge led directly into our execution of Neptune Strike, and I look forward to watching this combined team work to command and control high-end forces in real time.

How can that be?
Klaus says Putin is one of his Young Global Leaders (WEF)
Removing Putin is of no concern to Christians. How about you gather up your own army and go remove him yourself.

More like it's important to usher in "the fulfilment of Vilna Gaon's prophecy made in the 18th century".

Barry, you should be trying to slow things down, not speed things up...you are going to be in the Lake of Fire before you care to be.

Don't know who Klaus is, but I'm pretty sure that NATO is capable of ending Putin the bully's delusions of retaking Eastern Europe by force. Eastern Europe will no longer be his playground to do with as he pleases.
That's the reason NATO was formed in the first place, to protect Europe from Russia, the bully.
The reason I said Christian nations is because it would be a big mistake to let non-Christian nations such as Turkey to participate in the joint strike force (and learn about the workings of our sophisticated weapons) because Turkey is not our friend and it is just a matter of time before they butt heads with NATO and get kicked out (as prophesied).

Why are you so obsessed with Jews? Rabbi Elijah was obviously a false prophet because we both know who the real Messiah is.
In case you don't know it, the Jews in Israel today are fast becoming Christians, also called Messianic Jews. Even Netanyahu sounds more like a Christian than a Jew nowadays.

Mental midget. The nations that promote faggots pretending to be married should take out the nation that says faggots are freaks.
Mental midget.

Wow. That's got some symmetry to it.
Do tell. (I hope so for Netanyahu, as I do for you.)

If (Santa?) Klaus mattered I would know it because I watch the news 24/7 when I'm awake. I'm gonna guess he's a Jew cause that's all you NAZI's think about (24/7 when you're awake). If anything's wrong, blame the Jews.

I agree that faggots are freaks (in Bible terms, an abomination). But now that its legal in the US for them to get married let it be done by a justice of the peace and not in my Church. That's as sacrilegious as you can get.
Lesbians are OK though cause they don't spread diseases. (And I like to hide and watch). But Holy Matrimony? Not!

Huh?
How can you be "pro-Israel" if all you do is denigrate Jews?

Liar, Barry. You are a bald-faced liar.
No one here is "denigrating" Jews.
The prophecies of Scripture, Old and New Testaments, hinge upon Israel and the Jews. No one can talk about the Bible and not talk about Israel.
Nice try though.
