Sometimes there's quality in quantity. Iran is home to one of the largest military personnel in the Middle East. Enough cannon fodders to exhaust NATO weapons... probably the strategic importance LordAdam16 is talking about.
You're right.

They don't have the money to build quality. So they focused on quantity.

Well just last week i said israel will target the leadership if they were ukraine.

Now look at what we have today
Baba.

Even former Israeli PM begged Putin not to kill Zelensky.

Imagine what Russia will do to Ukraine or the west if Ukraine dares target Putin?

Remember the time Russia staged a drone attack near Putin's residence, as an excuse to kill Zelensky? Remember how quickly Zelensky & the US came out to deny it? You could hear the fear in his voice when he was denying the involvement. He was trembling in the interview. Go and watch it.

That was when i knew that drone attack was staged by Russia.


The US/West have more to lose in an all out war with Russia.

After the war, one thing is certain; the US will lose its power as one of the world's power. One might say Russia too, but Russia is used to losing everything and rebuilding from scratch.

Israel & Lebanon are both small states geographically. That is why Israeli airstrikes are scoring successful hits.

Israel doesn't even have any missile with 2000km range.

Now compare that with Ukraine where Russia successfully hit many targets near the Polish Ukraine border all the way from the Caspian Sea and sometimes from Murmansk. Thousands of Kilometers. It has even become routine.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the US have ever struck targets from that far out.

China's longest range missile is just 12,000km and haven't even seen any real action. Russia na monster abeg.

It will be difficult to move away from Taiwan-created microprocessor chips for electronic devices, USA-created Operating System (OS) for computers and mobile devices
Many countries have done that already.

This is how y'all go about to overrate Iran. There's a reason Putin personally visited North Korea to sign a military alliance treaty between Moscow and Pyongyang.
No wonder Russia up till this moment, have not signed any millitary defense pact with Iran.

But they signed one with North Korea.

In a war between Russia and NATO. Iranians might be the cannon fodder. They seem to have no problem dying like flies.

⚡Khamenei:

The Zionist entity is too small to deal a significant blow to Hezbollah's strong structure.

The fate of the region is determined by the resistance forces, led by Hezbollah.

Israeli killing of defenseless Lebanese once again proves Zionists savage nature.

The ruling terrorist gang in the Zionist entity has not learned a lesson from its criminal war in Gaza.

It is the duty of all Muslims to stand with the Lebanese people and Hezbollah to confront the malicious Zionist entity.

⚡Russia transported a record volume of oil via the Northern Sea Route (NSR) in 2024.

During this season, at least 15 tankers with a total volume of about 10.7 million barrels of crude oil passed through the NSR, which is 1 tanker and 0.2 million barrels more than last season. Moreover, there is still a month left until the end of the current season.

Five tankers are expected to return to the port of Murmansk after transporting oil along the NSR, which will allow reaching a new record of 14.4 million barrels in 2024.

It takes a little over a week to cross the northern coast from Novaya Zemlya to the Bering Strait, and then another 12-14 days to the ports of China. For comparison: via the Suez Canal, the journey from the Baltic to Shanghai takes about a month and a half.

⚡Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister has announced an “international alliance” to press for Palestinian statehood, on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, state media said on Friday.

Prince Faisal bin Farhan said the “International Alliance to Implement the Two-State Solution” included Arab and Islamic countries, as well as European partners, the Saudi Press Agency said, without giving details.

The Gaza war has revived talk of a “two-state solution” of Israeli and Palestinian states living in peace side by side, but analysts said the goal seems more unattainable than ever.

The hard-right Israeli government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remains implacably opposed to Palestinian statehood.

Saudi Arabia, the world’s biggest oil exporter and custodian of Islam’s two holiest sites, paused US-brokered talks on recognising Israel after the Gaza war broke out between Hamas Palestinian militants and Israel.

⚡DMITRY POLYANSKIY:

"Humankind is faced today with an existential crisis.

The reason for that is that Western countries under the leadership of the USA are so carried away by the proxy war with Russia in Ukraine, that they have lost the understanding that a global conflict between key players is likely to trigger a global catastrophe.

Western elites, who are likely to still be living in the Yalta-Potsdam system of international relations that emerged after World War II, have abandoned the principles of realpolitik based on national interests and indivisible security.


Realpolitik implies that strengthening the security of one state should not undermine the security of another.

Denial of that thesis manifests, in particular, in the unrestrained expansion of NATO; and finally this may create a real threat of the situation sliding into an uncontrolled escalation, which is well felt by our partners from the countries of the Global South.

Thanks to the 'efforts' of Washington and its satellites, the system of global 'checks and balances' and of fundamental agreements in the field of arms control has been almost completely destroyed.

The US is trying to level unfounded accusations against Russia in this regard, but, as we say, 'we take a note of every step."

⚡Hurricane Helene killed at least 17 people and caused massive flooding across the southeast United States on Friday, knocking out power for millions of customers.

Roads, homes and businesses were inundated after Helene made landfall near the Florida state capital Tallahassee overnight and surged north, though it weakened to a tropical storm.

The National Hurricane Center reported “historic and catastrophic flooding” and warned of flash floods in Georgia’s largest city Atlanta, as well as in South Carolina and North Carolina.

Up to 12 inches (30 centimeters) of rain was forecast in the Appalachian mountains, with isolated spots even receiving 20 inches.

In Perry, a town near where Helene slammed into the coast as a powerful Category 4 hurricane, houses had lost power and the gas station was flattened.

⚡Algeria Reintroduces Visa for Moroccans Amid Growing Tensions.

Algeria has reimposed visa requirements for Moroccan passport holders, citing “destabilization actions,” including trafficking, espionage, and the deployment of Zionist agents. This move marks a further deterioration in relations between the two neighbors, who cut diplomatic ties in 2021.

The primary point of contention remains Morocco’s stance on Western Sahara, with Algeria continuing to support the Polisario Front’s call for Sahraoui self-determination.

The U.S. claims that the USS Spruance and USS Stockdale intercepted the missiles, but there is silence regarding the third destroyer, which was reportedly hit.

Previously, the Houthis damaged the USNS Big Horn, forcing it into repairs after a missile strike.

⚡Argentina's poverty rate has risen to 52.9%, the worst in two decades under President Javier Milei.

This represents an 11.2 percentage point increase from 41.7% in the second half of 2023. Approximately 3.4 million Argentines have fallen into poverty this year.

Recent polls show a decline in Milei's popularity ratings. The government confidence index fell 14.7% in September. Milei's positive approval rating dropped 7 percentage points to 40% between August and September.

Overall government approval fell 2 points to 53%.
