must americans use flares if they belive they have a better system?

Mention the better system that America has? Every country with missile tech use countermeasures, so that’s a no-brainer. Mention what America has to counter heat-seeking air defense systems.

must every country do what russia is doing the same way russia is doing it? The kinzhal is more advanced than the kh-101 does it have flares?

The Kinzhal and Kh-101 are two different missiles. They have different uses, and different advantages and disadvantages.

The Kinzhal is a hypersonic missile.

It is very fast and can't be countered (and in many cases, tracked) with current technology. And when the technology to counter it becomes available in the future, it has been programmed to use a combination of speed, maneuverability, and altitude to escape air defense systems. As such, it doesn’t need flares.

The Kh-101 on the other hand, is a subsonic missile.

It flies below the speed of sound and is way slower than a Kinzhal. As a result, it is built to fly closer to the ground, making it hard to detect and destroy. This is also its disadvantage since it is easier to shoot down once detected. So, it resorts to using flares to counter air defense missiles.

With that knowledge, what air defense missile/system do you think this Kh-101 was using flares against?

most of them watch fake news channels.

I believe the west gave ukraine antiship missiles because of russia activities in the black sea.

Now houthi is doing same thing, why not ask iran to block the strait of homuz instead ? See how politicians are pushing hezbollah and houthi to play their game

I am not anti russia or pro russia because i believe politicians are for their own benefit alone.

Ukraine has anti-ship missiles. Lots of them. It's called the Neptune. That's what they often use to attack Russian ships. It was what it used against the Moskva ship. Ukraine also uses these missiles in land attack roles to attack Russian targets inside Russian territory.

The "original" news channels that you watch have tweaked the news to make it appear as if Ukraine is a weakling that's only in the fight because it's being armed by the west. That is a big fat lie. Ukraine is armed by Ukraine. Western weapons are only used to replace damaged/destroyed/captured Ukrainian weapons.

Ukraine is unable to produce/repair weapons for most part because Russia destroyed the factories at the beginning of the war. This was why Russia fired a lot of missiles at the beginning of the war. It was destroying Ukraine's missiles, warehouses, jets, and ships.

Today, despite all the so-called western aid, the majority of artillery, tanks, armored vehicles, and even air defense systems used by Ukraine are Ukrainian and not western. That should tell you a lot.

you are better than this now......
first, the Yorubas are not from Saudi, that your logic is not working in this case.
Some small percentage of the Jews community were infact on the land throughout history.....and who fought for the independence of that land, the jews.
the Palestinians fought with the Nazi during WW2 so that the can control the land but they lost the war.

so there is no logic you want to use that makes the Palestinians the owner of the land, they are land grabbers.


I'm not here for history lessons. Are you joining the army or not? I will give you one oil well if we win.

Mohammed Amin al-Husseini is the grand mufti of Jerusalem who was looking to kill the Jews and claim the land.

yes some people of Jewish ancestry fought for Hitler, we have German who fought for the allied forces.

Mohammed Amin al-Husseini he was looking for the same thing hamas want today but failed.

and pls you guys should define genocide, maybe it is different from the general definition.




the bold,

Since you know that why crying foul?

How can you generalize a single person (Mohammed) opinion and put aside over 12,000 Palestinian that saved Jews with there own lives

⚡Putin:

The situation on the battlefield is changing, the enemy is blown away.

Russia wants to end the conflict in Ukraine, but on its own terms.

Ukraine is not our enemy, but those who want to achieve Russia's strategic defeat are enemies.

From time immemorial, the West has set the task of dealing with Russia, but we, it seems, will deal with them faster.

Belgorod was a terrorist attack. Of course, we can hit squares in Kyiv and in any other city, I understand, everything is boiling with me, but what, do we need to hit civilians? No, we are hitting military targets, that’s what we will do.

⚡Israeli official says Israel is withdrawing some forces from Gaza “to shift to more targeted operations against Hamas”.

IDF is also partially returning reservists to civilian life to help the economy as the country enters the new year set for a prolonged war.

Israel drafted 300,000 reservists for the war - an estimated 10% to 15% of its workforce.

Some were quickly discharged, but government sources have said between 200,000 and 250,000 were still serving and absent from jobs or universities.

⚡IDF says about 17% of the deaths of its soldiers during the war with the Gaza Strip were accidents.

Deaths of 29 of 170 soldiers in Gaza op were so-called friendly fire, accidents.

Eighteen of the 170 soldiers were killed by friendly fire due to mistaken identification, including in airstrikes, tank shelling, and gunfire.

Two soldiers were killed by gunfire that was not intended to hit them.

Nine soldiers were killed in accidents, including accidental weapon discharges, being run over by armored vehicles, and being hit by shrapnel from controlled demolitions.

Since the beginning of the ground operation, between two and six soldiers have been killed per week in incidents of friendly fire or accidents, according to the data.

One thing im certain of is, if the US decides to start active wars (deploying of troops not just funding) on various battle fronts simutenously they will suffer... All their enemies good and evil are coming together waiting to strike. their support for ukraine was a big economic burden from the start i remember a headline then said something "the US cannot afford to help ukraine" before the war started, it would be foolish for them to involve themselves with North korea and China. The US should seek stronger deplomatic actions this year. Rather than military actions because, they are weaker than they seem.
Hope you're aware that republic of korea is US military ally unlike Ukraine?
