The Syrian army was a formidable fighting force, even without the Russians or the Iranians. I'm not saying that they may have stopped this eventual ou...
Is anyone else slightly alarmed by the way the legacy media is now trying to white-wash the image of the leader of the Syrian rebels - formerly Al-Qae...
On the other end of that argument you would be disqualifying the entire western media. :lol: At some point you'll have to accept that when people have...
I've actually followed Mercouris for quite a while, and the idea that he never criticizes Putin is simply untrue. This is just the umpteenth attempt a...
The most important question here is who is backing the rebel forces. That will tell us much about the future of the country. There's a lot more going ...
Any concrete indications of that? As far as I've been able to tell this president and his party have been notoriously hawkish on North-Korea, which wo...
Amnesty International investigation concludes Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza Same shit, different day. Is there anything l...
No idea if this latest jab was aimed at me, but is this some kindergarten-level attempt at misrepresenting other people's opinions while trying to sav...
I loved it. :up: Western society is no longer an example worthy of emulating. It provides nothing in the way of spiritual fulfillment, no role models,...
I conclude that you're unable to admit even something so basic as NATO and Russia being involved in a proxy war against each other. That's how flimsy ...
Can you ever just make a concise point? All this waffling and linking articles is just vague and pointless. I'm not going to fish through dozens of ar...
The title alone makes me not take it seriously - trying to claim authority by presenting 'fresh evidence', as though anything is going to top the thre...
What? :brow: These aren't 'Kremlin lies' - these are common views held among many Western scholars. If you don't want to debate, don't debate, but don...
, that's not very ambiguous, is it? You really think a commitment to the very the thing that sparked this whole catastrophe was going to set the Russi...
Well, what did you expect? I'm not sure if you've noticed, but NATO has been involved in a proxy war against Russia for about three years now. We're l...
"Fresh evidence" - Yea, typical nonsense when unfortunate facts need to be white-washed, which is obviously what the West needed to do with their acti...
What "single reason for the war" do you believe I am repeating? The idea that Russia's annexation of Crimea was purely territorial/imperial is a compl...
You're simply cherry-picking. The idea that the Russian goals in September 2022 more purely reflect their initial goals than those stated up to and in...
The unfortunate thing for you is that the Russians have told us exactly in word and in deed what they want for over a decade - a neutral Ukraine. That...
The Russians offered us the terms, the Ukrainians accepted and the West boycotted it and subsequently ruled out negotiations in favor of 'breaking apa...
The Istanbul agreements are direct evidence to the contrary. Ignoring the evidence that is out there in favor of warmongering for total war is what is...
Not just for Putin, mind you. It's quite popular among the mainstream media to repeat the idea that this is 'Putin's war', but it's been known since p...
The Americans have already stabbed the Ukrainians in the back. The promise upon which the Ukrainians hedged their chances against the Russians was the...
A sophisticated way of saying "Putin bad." - not very convincing. If we want to avoid WW3, we should probably look into our own role in perpetuating t...
I don't know about micromanaging, but for politicians to command the military is only proper. "War is a continuation of politics by other means," as C...
With just a tiny, old INS over a 300km trajectory? Yeah, no. The whole point is for the GPS and INS to function together to reduce their respective er...
You won't hit the broad side of a barn with just '80s INS, but the guidance modules have been updated over time to be able to correlate INS with syste...
The issue for Ukraine is that GPS is heavily jammed and thus long-range ATACMS missiles have to rely on different guidance systems to achieve a high d...
Also note the gold price responding to recent geopolitical developments. When Trump got elected, the price of gold started to come down significantly ...
This is not 'Putin talk', it's simply a fact that Ukraine is incapable of operating these weapon systems alone. It's inherent to the weapon systems. I...
With that said, if we survive all of this, maybe several countries in Europe will reinvent this Dutch tradition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVsrv...
It is one thing when, like during the Cuban Missile Crisis, countries are playing nuclear chicken with their own countries at stake. Right now, the US...
Well, it can't get any worse than the Biden administration, which is now playing a game of nuclear chicken with Europe as their bargaining chip. Ten w...
The point here is that Ukraine lacks the ISR and fire control capabilities to strike targets deep inside Russia, which means that at this point US and...
I wager that the Americans view 'limited nuclear war' as an excellent means of taking out two potential geopolitical rivals who stand to benefit from ...
Two nations are flaunting the fact that "their missiles" are hitting targets in Russia: the US and the UK. What did they achieve? Nothing, except for ...
In what way do you suppose I am not? The problem lies in US and UK integration into the European security structure. If the Americans want to leave vo...
What I meant is that Russia is currently occupied in Ukraine and won't conceivably threaten to invade NATO for the foreseeable future. In 20 years tha...
The US and Biden's push into Ukraine is the single greatest threat to the world since the Cuban Missile Crisis - not Trump. Trump has been elected on ...
Yes, I think we Europeans might be genuinely worried about Trump leaving NATO - much like how a fat private fears PT. Yet, PT is the only way to whip ...
