Russian Nuclear Bombers in Venezuela

The Russians are in Venezuela with a couple of TU-160 Tupolev long range nuclear bombers (pictured right)

So the Americans send a few warships into the Black Sea as a show of strength for Georgia and the Russians do something similar.

They sent a couple of bombers ( gorgeous I might add ) to participate in a joint exercise with Venezuela. This is the first time since the end of the cold war that a Russian Strategic Bomber has landed in the West.

This has come at the same time Venezuela has reduced the number of flights going to the USA after the US Government issued a security advisory for Venezuela.

Looks like a new cold war is right round the corner, hopefully Obama (if he gets in) will be the kind of guy to throw some cold water on this before some Nuclear bunker salesmen start trying to sell their latest shelters on us.

I am skint right now so I might have to build my own.

Does anyone have a DIY Nuke shelter manual I can borrow?
