Jul 29, 2013 Russia began observational flights over the United States on Sunday under the international Open Skies Treaty, officials said. The monitoring missions are being carried out by a Tupolev Tu-154M/LK-1 aircraft through Aug. 12, RIA Novosti reported. "The missions will be carried out from the Travis Air Force Base [in California] and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base [in Ohio]," said Sergei Ryzhkov, head of Russia's National Nuclear Risk Reduction Center. "These will be Russia's 23rd and 24th monitoring flights in 2013 over the territories of the Open Skies Treaty member states." Russian military inspectors, along with U.S. specialists, will monitor surveillance equipment aboard the aircraft. The Open Skies Treaty allows participants to conduct unarmed aerial observation flights over the territories of its 34 member states to promote openness of military forces and activities. The treaty went into effect Jan. 1, 2002. Russia Begins Observational Flyovers of US | Military.com
Would be interesting to know where they are flying and what equipment they are allowed to have. Not like they are just here taking a sight seeing flight. I'm thinking .goob back up IF the people ever get fed up and try to remove them. Thinking along the lines of the first Red Dawn.
Bunch of bastards, if we had a real president we would blow these suckers out of the air and demand they honor our national airspace!!!!!!!!!! We just give away the farm over and over, if we are to ever protect our nation from the evil of the world, we need to maintain our integrity as a nation which includes keeping our secrets, secret.
I would suggest they are doing aerial recon of Northern nuckie sites, of our roadways/railways, military installations, infrastructure and so on. Nothing more than an intel grab of our nations heart and soul..... Whoever signed and authorized this treaty, participated in approving or voting for it and so on, needs to have there heads loped of.... theoretically of course. Not that I would condone such an action....
2002 that would be little Bush. Happened not long after the twin towers fell. Might even be part Of the power grab patriot act.
NWO was part of GWB's vision just as it has been for most progressives. One world government means that we have no rights but the ones dictated by the people we can not sway with our votes or power. In general- time to lock and load when our say means nothing.... Obbummmer is nothing more than a continuation of government growth to strip the people of a choice, and then one day they/we are part of the UN governance and subjects to another tyrant we have to put down like the dog they are.... YMMV but mine does not. YD
Hrm, most highly critical and top secret military "merchandise" is trucked or railed underground, so I don't understand the reason for "openness of the military" by permitting foreign flights if this is the official excuse. Also, to assume foreign intelligence is not on the same page as little 'ol me would be insulting. No, there's an ulterior motive at play here, and we may never know it fully. If we look at these "Governments" as they truly are --that being, just enormous corporations each vying for supremacy on the world stage, then it begins to make more sense.
Makes you wonder what they are really doing. Arial "monitoring" ?? Really ? I can do that from my chair with Google Earth... And I'm just going to assume the Rooskies, Chinese, and at least a couple dozen other Countries have satellites capable of much better imaging than google does. And as for GHW Bush and the NWO, I didn't realize how much evidence there is out there pertaining to him as being one of the HMFIC of the Kennedy assassination.. - My tin foil cup runneth over...

And the focus here is on their flights. I dare say the agreement allows us the same over them. Even zero would not do this without a tit for tat.
30 years ago when I was a young, fresh from basic training airman in Alaska, we would have done just that. Bear bombers invaded US airspace about once every 1.5 weeks. Full of cameras and who knows what else. We would send a couple of F-15 Eagles up to inform them their navigation systems must be malfunctioning and escort them back into Russian airspace. The Eagles were loaded with much more than just cameras. My guess is non-compliance by the Bear would have resulted in an international incident and recovery of dead Russian aviators. My how times have changed.
It isn't just that they are overflying...they are doing it FROM OUR BASES! They had to GET HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE and one of those bases is in the middle of the damned country! Ok, so we are a signatory to the treaty...um, we can always BREAK THE TREATY instead of being complicit in our own destruction... Damn...IT! We aren't just on the road to oblivion, you can actually SEE IT from here...
