Dey play. Meanwhile Ukraine under 18 to 22 years are fleeing the country,
Wake me up when they take up 20.1% of Ukraine.
Despite every nook and cranny you mentioned, it's still 20% for 3 years. And that's even thanks to the separatists, Wagner and more.... So much achievement for the best army in the world.

All the empire you listed yes have defeated Israel at some point and have also protected Israel too at some point
Is that not strange to you lol

In Persian empire
Persians freed the Jews after their Babylonian captivity. King Cyrus allowed them to return to Judea and rebuild their Temple.
Also Another Persian King had a Jewish queen. She used her influence at court to bring down the enemies of her people.

In Babylon empire
God used Israel to spread his awesome name in the land and many belived in the God of Israel even
King Nebuchadnezzar came to rely on the God of Israel, after his dream
, after demanding that the magicians tell him what he had dreamed of and what his dream was about which only Daniel the Israeli could state and could interpret.

I believe you know how the others too licked the behind of Israel back then and now.

All the statement was full of "may" and "might" and you are already mastutbating. Statement not made by any US official. Even Russians were protesting against this Serbian president's visit to Pootin the other day.
Haa. No wonder they say: Whomever the gods want to kill, they first make mad.
The only mad person in your post is Biden the Satan associate

So tell me which day Russians complain about oil deal which Serbians hinted on note Serbia I believe are slavic too

Your just moving up and down

I'm not really versed about middle East politics, but I'm curious.

Who give Houthis their advance weapon tech, to a point where they could take down fighter jets and to create a blockade?

Appleyard:
I dislike replying to or commenting on your posts because you're usually neither here nor there. But today, you sound a bit sane, so I will give you that benefit.

War is strategic but it's the decision-making and realities on the ground that define and shape strategy.

Air campaign alone does not win wars. Mention ONE war where victory was achieved strictly on the basics of airpower. Not even the United States and NATO combined have achieved such feat from the bombing of Serbia to Iraq to Afghanistan. You need boots on the ground to achieve real victory.

Russian impressive air campaign in Syria was significant but not the only deciding factor that kept Assad in power. Iranian and it's proxies gound deployment, particularly Hezbollah and Russian mercenaries were what complimented the Russian air campaign that resulted in success.

Israel going back and forth with bombing Yemen from the skies is not strategic but the result of the stark reality that that is the only means of counter it can dare muster against the Houthis that has proved to everyone that they fear no one but are equally sophisticated and capable of fighting back.

The IDF does not enjoy flying back and forth 2000km just to bomb some airports and one or two other assets in Yemen only for the Houthis to strike back hypersonically. And the cycle repeat itself. How long can the IDF keep it up? It would certainly weary the air force and expose them to further potential hazards. Sane heads knows the odds are against the IDF and this is something they cannot win without ground deployment, but Netanyahu for political reasons thinks otherwise

Syria as it is right now has no real national standing army. So who are you expecting to confront the advancing Israeli troops? The civilians?
Ask yourself a simple question, Why will the IDF invade Yemen?? Is it political and military wise to embark on such campaigns??

The IDF did not say they want to take over Yemen. terrorist groups such as the Houthis are mostly fuelled by ideologies, they never die. Ideologies is difficult to kill So you simply suppress them to the point they can't carry attacks at you. Same way the US did with osaman's Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. same way hazebolla has been suppressed in labenon. they couldn't even muster the strength to fight off the rapid onslaught against Assad’s forces.

Those attacks by the IDF are deliberate, they are meant to target infrastructure critical to the fighting/economic capabilities of the Houthis

The Houthis do not pose any territorial risk to the Jewish state. There will be no need for any ground incursion. Unlike Hamas and hazebolla. Houthis posses a limited risk to the Jews.

@The bolded...The question you should be asking is how will the Houthis sustain a prolong military confrontation with the IDF not the other way round, comparing a non state actor whose major source of funding and weapons comes from Iran. With one of the biggest economy in the middle-east, whose defence industry is one of the most robust in the world and has access to US and it partners military assets and intelligence in the region. Also a major recipient of US military aid. The Jewish airforce can and has the capability to carry out massive and sustained airstrikes on Houthis positions for years if it has to.


P.s the Jewish long range ballistic missiles like the jericho projectiles would easily strike any country in the middle-east, but why waste such costly ballistic missiles on inferior targets in Yemen when you can just fly your jets and bomb the shit out of does terrorist.

Iran.

A noteworthy point is that Iran runs a program where it sites production facilities in the territory of allied militias.
Easier to assemble in Yemen, Iraq, or Lebanon; than ship intact missiles.
Further to that, Yemen is a more hostile environment for espionage than Lebanon and Palestine.
In Palestine, every other person is a spy. In Lebanon, the melting pot of different groups provides an ample supply of informants.
Proximity is also a boon for the West/Israel.

Consequently, the Houthis have had favorable conditions to maintain and iterate production.
The Houthis are a different beast. They can field more than 10 times the number of fighters Hezbollah can.
They're farther away. They have stricter control over their territory.

However, of all of the militias in the Iranian Axis of Resistance.
They are the most independent. They are more similar to a traditional ally than an Iranian-backed militia.

😂😂😂🤣😅😅😂🤣😅😅

See how propaganda just make someone stupid

The US have naval assets close to Yemen, what assets will the US deploy?? is it not the navy assets close to Yemen, you want the US to lunch a ballistic missile from its land silos in florida to attack a target in the middle-east??

Why was the aircrafts carriers made, is it not to project power?? US Navy ships comes with the tomahawk cruise missiles used for long range targets.

Why didn't Russia fire missiles from Russian territory to destroy Syrian rebels in Syria Why used it aircraft stationed in Syria 😂😂🤣

Of all the Russian guys you are clearly the dullest.
🤣🤣🤣😂😅
They most be joking.

It all lies back to the poor soviet doctrine of favoring cheap, poorly precised and numerous squad/ballistic missile, over their America aircraft force projection... The soviet rely mostly on their meat grinder foot soldiers incase of a full blown European war, with limited airforce projections which is more expensive and logistical challenging.
But the later course of the cold war and America effectiveness with airforce projection in the gulf and war on terror had the Russians on edge, they started modernization of airforce doctrines using Syria as a testing ground, which to most independent watchers they seems impressive knowing they sustained fairly good sureties against ISIS.

But it all seems as a fad, because the war in Ukraine has exposed the ineffectiveness of the Russia airforce, unable to project power right there in its backyard instead relying on the soviet doctrine using missiles and meat grinders soldiers...

This is what WriteerNg calls sophistication.

🇺🇦 🆚 🇸🇰The internet supported Fico’s words that he is “not a servant” of Zelensky and is not obliged to help him.

Earlier, Ukraine announced the termination of Russian gas transit to Europe, including Slovakia, from January 1, 2025. Fico promised to consider retaliatory measures:

"I understand that for selfish political reasons the West gives you practically everything you ask for. But I am not your servant who cannot express his own opinion and who is obliged only to help you and not expect anything from you."

Comments online:

"Well done, you put the six back in place!"

"Super said. I want retaliatory actions against Ukraine and its dictator";

"Let the Banderites understand: if gas doesn't come to us, then electricity doesn't come to Ukraine, plus fuel. An eye for an eye - and that's it."

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by FPVdrone: 4:30pm On Dec 28, 2024
🇸🇰 Slovakia may stop electricity supplies to Ukraine if Kyiv stops transit of Russian gas through its territory

This was stated by the country's Prime Minister Robert Fico, Bloomberg writes.

💬 After January 1, we will assess the situation and potential reciprocal measures towards Ukraine. If necessary, we will stop supplying electricity that Ukraine urgently needs during grid outages,
— threatened the Prime Minister of Slovakia.

📌On January 1, 2025, the agreement on the transit of Russian gas to EU countries via Ukraine will expire. Among them is Slovakia.
