Just one day after Western G8 leaders failed to ram past Vladimir Putin a resolution mandating Assad’s ouster, Moscow said Wednesday that two warships carrying 600 Russian marines are heading for Syria "to protect Russian citizens." Russian Deputy Air Force Commander Maj.-Gen. Gradusov said an air force umbrella would be there if needed. debkafile: This was a thinly disguised Russian flexing of muscle against continuing Western arms supplies to the Syrian rebels.

Supposedly Putin and barry aren't getting along very well either. Barry somehow managed to secure the gym at the G8 summit resort and wouldn't share (supposedly).

So Putin, never to be outdone, took a nice long swim OUTSIDE in the LAKE, & its in the 60's outside and the water temperature is much lower. :cm:I saw it on the news, it looks more like a swamp than a lake to be honest with you.

BARACK Obama won a “cold war” victory ahead of the G8 summit after bagging a gym — and leaving Vladimir Putin to exercise in an icy lake.
The US and Russian leaders both bid for exclusive use of the fitness suite at the five-star resort hosting the talks in Northern Ireland.
Neither wanted to back down — or work out together.
But the stand-off was won by the 51-year-old US President as hardman Putin said he would get his fitness fix swimming in the lake surrounding Co Fermanagh’s Lough Erne hotel.
A source told The Sun: “Both wanted the gym and Obama’s people requested it first. It could have sparked a bitter battle and ended up a laughable sticking point at the talks — but the Russians backed down.

“They said it was fine as Putin will go for an early morning swim in the lake instead.”
Former KGB officer Putin, 60, is famed for his macho image and love of outdoor pursuits.
He has been snapped fishing topless with a knife in his belt, demonstrating martial arts and taking dips in freezing Siberian rivers.
The source added: “The water in Fermanagh will be cold, but it should be no bother to Putin compared to Siberian rivers.
“In fact he’ll probably revel in it, as it could make Obama look weaker in his mind for staying indoors with a trainer.”
Neither the White House nor the hotel commented. The two-day talks start today.
