Meanwhile the British military were awed at how Russia managed to destroy 7 Ukrainian fighter planes in the space of 15 hours, despite the fact that NATO has an overwhelming SINGIT and 24 hours rotational AWACS over the skies in the Baltic and Black Sea coast, which acts as cover for the Ukrainian fighters and air defense systems whenever Russian planes takes off from their bases or when missiles are incoming from Russia land and sea based stand-off strike assets. cool

Well, it turns out out that one of the purported completely new systems that Russia is using to render ineffective NATO's 'all-seeing eye' over the Ukrainian war theatre is the SU-57. cool The Brits grudgingly admitted that Russia has been using this stealth fighter to inflict pain on the Ukrainian airforce since January this year. Considering how the west earlier ridiculed the SU-57 in it's production stages, it's funny seeing how they're admitting its superiority on the battlefield, being the only Stealth fighter that has successfully tasted 'real combat' and recorded multiple kills in a 'near peer' capable and highly contested environment. Unlike the F-22 and F-35 that has only seen combats against farmers and horse riders. cool

In a nutshell, the SU-57 vis-a-vis it's hypersonic air-to-air R-37M missile ranged up to 400km has successfully confined the Ghost of Kiev to the fictional books of history while looking down ridiculously at the overhyped F-22 raptor and the flying coffin F-35--two projects that has proven to be a waste of taxpayers money, and has the uneviable records of turning into submarines at their own will when they're not snapping off their pilot's neck. grin

But why am I not surprised? Well, let's do the maths: cool

F-22 + F-35 = SU-57. grin grin

Damn Russians chose that acronym on purpose. grin

SUPERIORITY confirmed!

⚡Russia will surround Europe with military bases:

The Russian military and the Libyan National Army (LNA) of Khalifa Haftar have renewed contacts and relations.

According to reports, the parties intend to conclude a defense agreement, which could lead to the creation of a naval base on the Libyan coast.

In this case, Russian ships will be close to Italy and Greece, they will control the south of Europe. This means that Russia will also suround Europe militarily.


Due to the experience of the Russians from the war in Ukraine that Europe has lost its independence and is under the strong command of the US, Russia now does not seem to sit idly by and will put maximum military pressure on Europe.

And now instead of NATO on the borders of Russia, it seems that there will be Russia on the borders of NATO.

Libya is located in a very favorable geographical position in the Mediterranean Sea and from here Russia can have a huge influence in the Mediterranean.
It's just about time. cool

⚡Revenues to the Russian budget from gas and oil doubled in October compared to September. The price ceiling introduced by the G7 countries is in fact not respected, writes the Wall Street Journal.

These revenues go to finance the war in Ukraine and strengthen the economy.

Russia's shadow fleet already consists of 180 tankers. The largest oil buyers China, India and Turkey do not comply with Western price caps.

In addition, Russia is increasing its share of insurance for oil supplies outside the G7 countries. If in January this concerned 35% of supplies, now they are more than half.

Russian oil has recently been selling at a price of about $74 per barrel, with the “ceiling” set by the West at 60 - ISZ reports
Ibime will not like this. cool

This is true. Hezbollah have been intervening since the following day of the attack on Israel, although they did it on a limited scale which have already caused big casualties on both sides. Imagine of they formally declare full intervention. The US understand this and that's why they quickly ran to back Israel.

please add they took the 150000skm without indiscriminate bombing.
Gaddamnit man!! Gaddamnit! One American military analyst recently said that when he watched footages of the IDF raininging down bombs indiscriminately on civilian population, and he reminisced on what the US and Britain did in Iraq (they used fighter jets to massacre thousands of innocent fleeing women, children and men who are purely civilians, in so much that US and British pilots were betting on who among them would have the largest kill ratio), he concluded that no fighting force in the 21st century has ever and will never fight a real war as strategically and pragmatically humane as the Russians. cool

Russia would have taken more if NATO did not help Ukraine.
Fact is, much of the key territories with economic potentials that Russia wanted is already in their hands, except Odessa and Kharkiv. Hence they are taking their time with the SMO. Minus NATO plus NATO, Russia will achieve its goals in Ukraine. The funny thing is that the west knew Ukraine was a failed project ab initio . cool

somehow:

The Egyptians just fell into a trap.
On the contrary, Israel is setting itself up for more global hatred and possible backlash from states around it. The more they keep targeting and killing civilians, the more televised their atrocities are shown to the world, and the more protest and violent actions that would be taking against it and her Innocent Jewish people across the world, particularly in Europe. Then it will get to a stage where those European governments can't take it any longer and would simply abandon or downplay their support for the state of Israel. Netanyahu is falling into a trap and I hope he realise this quickly.

If the IDF claims to be fighting Hamas in Gaza, where then are these rockets launching from?
From my mother's bedroom. cool

Fact is, what the IDF is doing in Gaza is collective punishment upon the whole civilian population. I doubt if they had killed up to 500 Hamas terrorists since the war began. Bombing civilians made them not different from Hamas in deed. What is wrong is wrong.

I think from what Israel is doing in Gaza, people can now see the real difference between an SMO and a real all-at-war bombing campaign. If Russia was bombing this way all over Ukraine, there would have been no place to inhabit in Ukraine today.

⚡Akhmat Commander Apti Alaudinov commenting the incident in Dagestan:

If we start treating people differently, good or bad, only based on their nationality, then we‘ll turn into the same fascist,zionist government like Israel, we‘ll turn into those whom we‘re fighting in Ukraine.

A lot of jews live in Chechnya, serve in Akhmat and fight with us shoulder to shoulder. If we start treating them badly only based on their nationality, then the question arises what makes us better than these fascists? better than Israel? I don‘t think this is the correct way.

If our brothers from Palestine come to you, treat them well. If our Jewish brothers, who are fleeing the war, come to you treat them also well. These are civilians, not soldiers.

There are no bad nationalities - only bad people.
