yet at times like these, its valuable to share what one knows to paint a larger picture in my opinion.
Thanks for posting... you offer a view that rarely gets recognised in the western media or the pro Russian media... normally that sort of thing just falls through the cracks...
You have to feel sorry for all the idiots who were rooting for Trump to win
To be honest I think with Hilary in charge we would have been here last year when the murder in chief tries to impose a no fly zone over all of Syria...
Yeah, probably. No good choices.
Lets face it... they tried to choose the lesser of two evils, but what choice did they have? Especially when both were saying what they thought would get them elected and lying through their teeth... Trump said bring all the boys home and let the world sort out its own problems... and Hilary said she would be great for womans rights...
Russia had no need to act here honestly, all the targets hit do not harm Syria's ability to conduct war atm.
You are assuming the terrorist forces are sitting doing nothing while the Syrian and Russian forces are distracted...
Hopefully any land taken will be taken back and some thorns can be dealt with using this attack as the excuse...
They'll do it as many times as they wish. There is no promise they can keep in a war of deception - that should be clear. Anyone that believes to the contrary is hugely naive, purposefully, to avoid admitting the obvious in front of their face.
If they are not doing any damage who cares how often they "attack".
Considering the rhetorical buildup to this.....it turned out to be a storm in a tea cup
An illegal storm... Putin should still retaliate to say to the west that this sort of shit is not acceptable... they created this whole situation as a provocation to action... the fact that the Russians didn't blink and so the attack was pathetic does not mean it should go unanswered.
No, I am not suggesting nuclear strikes or attacks on ABM systems in Europe, nor sinking ships or subs or shooting down planes... none of that would benefit Russia or Syria and is more likely to escalate in a tit for tat game where it will end no one knows.
What Russia should do is something like hit a known (to them) secret western base in Syria that has been off limits up until now... the US is hardly going to say... hey that strike on town x that just killed a lot of our soldiers that are not supposed to be there is not OK...
Perhaps a FOAB attack on an area where most of the locals are pro terrorist... kill multiple birds with one stone. (lets face it no matter what they do to attack such targets it will be childrens schools and hospitals and churches that are destroyed...)
When a loss is a victory.... people are really deluded
Considering all the likely missiles and forces involved that probably added a billion to Americas bill... and they achieved nothing... tomorrow we will see a new chem attack video and the media will be demanding blood... again... and they can launch another volley of missiles at empty buildings and air strips...
How is this a loss?
We don't even know what the Russians will do about it yet...
Fucking Call Of Duty Generation kids, they cry for mommy as soon the first bullets whistle by.
Bullets don't discriminate... when bullets are flying... I will not be there very long either...
....shit... I did not just defend that little froggy prick did I...
People should not underestimate this small provocations ... if anyone remembers
What happened in World War 2... before the war started.. it began with skirmishes
But that was small local conflicts involving countries in alliances where the small countries dragged the bigger countries into the conflict because everyone was part of one alliance or the other so everyone got involved...
Lucky we are much smarter now because now there is NATO... which includes or involves almost all of Europe and Russia and Belarus... so any small conflict cannot escalate... oops.
.to humiliate Russia and reverse
the gains of Russia there against ISIS.
Humiliate Russia is what western media does... this will make no difference one way or the other, but the important thing is that these minor attacks in no way effect Russia and Syrias fight against ISIS... ISIS is fucked in Syria.
Oh it seems my posts under KVS and above Par Far got removed? my my am I being censored?. I suspect I know which Mod it is also.
I don't delete, and I have not moved anything since this morning...
Tisk tisk I provide nice information and thats my thanks well allow me to re-say it has my posts did not violate any site rules.
I can't say one way or the other about the rules because I did not read your posts you say are missing.
so which of you mods was it.
Wasn't me.
And lets face it if it was why would I lie?
The Syrians army are dancing now celebrating what they call a Victory. Laughing
Is this real ? or just them trying to raise the morale of their soldiers?
They just got attacked by the worlds exceptional super power and two of its stooges that also think they are super powers, not to mention the superiors of us all and they survived pretty much intact... why should they not celebrate?
They're not wonder weapons but Tomahawks are still quite effective. Plus they're fairly regularly upgraded.
They are rather more effective when the targets are not warned half an hour before hand of attacks too...
ha ha i can only laugh about those who claimed yesterday that France would not dare to attack Assad. Or that our pilots would return dead.
France attacked after the US attacked... like the good little poodle it is.
You should be glad that russia did nothing, otherwise your gay looking face would have been nuclear ash
We have yet to hear about what the Russian response will be....
That's the scorecard.
The game is not over... there has been no official response from Russia yet AFAIK...
Russia will now reconsider Syria's request for S-300 (and not only Syria) which was suspended previously on the request of Western "partners"
That was quick....
you have lost your oldest Ally in Scotland
France only cares about countries who murder Frenchmen.... you know... Germany and the US.
I'm not sure you know what you're talking about. Scotland will continue to be part of England for the foreseable decades. Scotland has no independent foreign policy, and lastly you don't speak for all Scots.
Not sure you know what you are talking about... I am from New Zealand and even I know Scotland has never been part of England and never will be... and don't suggest it to a scot or he or she will punch you in the face...
On a french forum there is a video of 3 naval cruise missiles fired by french frigate.
The Russians would not have noticed them if they didn't make it into Syrian airspace...
Good to hear a high interception rate . Even if interception rate increase to 100 percent . Then it becomes a matter of who has more missiles . Or who is wealthier . In symmetric war , the side with greatest quantity wins . We need to think asymmetric .
Don't need and likely can't achieve 100% shootdown rate... the point is that the missiles that got through got through because there were too many and usually there are too many because the target was not important enough to be better defended.
If they had attacked more important targets then even if a few get through it is not so important because the retaliation would do rather more damage than the west is used to taking after its missile strikes (ie normally none)
Can you leave this forum ? No one cares about your ideas and even less avout your insults.
Can a mod ban this guy ? Garry ? Vlad ? That's becoming worse and worse. It's not first time he is being racist.
I love his racism... it is fantastic... it is hilarious that he thinks he is better than anyone... if you are french then I understand your embarassment, but I believe it is important not to hide idiots like him... let everyone know the sort of people who think murdering people with missiles is a good solution for allegations that some people might have been poisoned... we saw the original video showing it was totally staged, yet they went ahead with this attack... risking the real lives of people for the lives of people they admit they don't care about and know were not even at risk.
