Kingsnairaland: it's still a CONFLICT, not a WAR, and Russia not interested in doing Mass Killings - all they're doing is stopping Ukraine from joining NATO. Guess they're using the GoSlow strategy to wear out Ukraine sponsors 2 Likes 1 Share |

obedience4: ...there's been reports by WESTern media that EU & USA mercenaries have been in Ukraine since start of this fight. If you doubt me, check online news sources especially those from WESTern states. issue is, the USA can't gear up hence reason they send them as mercenaries. A couple of them have been caught hence no longer a secret. Still Russia not really doing much about it. One of the numerous reasons even the WEST are supper careful because this Russians are highly unPredictable . 1 Like 1 Share |

Emma15678: Happy new year first. Please how do Assad Control 2/3 of Syria, I would need you do some research.. Why didn't Russia use is might and reclaimed all Syria from rebel's Please the us base had missiles defence, it was simply overwhelmed by the sheer volume of missiles the Iranian fired, go read the report of the attack on Google. Israel doesn't need to bomb Iran, systematically killing its nuclear scientists, and hacking it system is enough. |

Kingsnairaland: Have you not heard that for you to carpet bomb a country, you have to have gotten air supremacy over the airspace.. funny guy, it is no longer NeWS that even after almost ten months of the war, the Ukrainian airspace is till disputed, a shame for a country that calls itself a world power Russian bombers have been firing from deep inside Russian territory and also from the black sea,.. If a Russian bomber strays into Ukraine.. It a gonna. |

obedience4:1. Check the screenshots below. Argue with Google 2. The goal in Syria was to stop ISIS. The force in Syria now cannot even stage a decisive offensive, Russia came to Syria because of Iran. Iran didn't want to have another Democracy on her borders and the rebels lack the firepower to change the Assad regime so the mission is accomplished. If Russia leaves Syria today, I know what will happen. 3. Hacking and assassination is not enough to stop the programme. Iran is nearing the break out tine. Thanks to ukraine war, Iran is now closer to Russia and you know that if Russia wants Iran to get nukes this year, it's a walkover. Even by Iranian law, production of nukes is Haram. 4. So a dozen missiles overwhelmed Almighty patriot? At a time when Iran has been sanctioned for years, Iran can still overwhelm us ADS. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Emma15678: Stop pampering Russia air force inability to take air superiority over Ukraine airspace. The manpads, you mention are mostly use against low flying aircraft e.g helicopters, Russia bombers like the Tupolev can't be hit by a missile from a manpads, missiles defence systems like the s300 Suface to air missile SAM's is what is scaring Russian pilot's. Is a pity seeing the Russians performing badly in Ukraine, is a shame that the Russians can't take out Ukrainian missiles defence sites during the early stages of the war Instead Putin choose to send tank's and trucks in large convey without air cover they became easy prey for Ukrainians to destroy. |

obedience4:I don't support failure and I condemn RF forces when the need arises. Russian Su-35 and Su-30 have won every air battle Russia has engaged in. IDK what you mean by air superiority, Russia has taken out 50%of ukrainian energy systems.

Emma15678: Man-portable air-defense systems are portable surface-to-air missiles. They are guided weapons and are a threat to low-flying aircraft, especially helicopters. Wikipedia Only for low flying aircraft. |
Re: US Military Base In Syria Comes Under Heavy rocket fire by obedience4(m): 6:50am On Jan 02, 2023 |
Emma15678: Lol, manpads are used for low and slow moving for crafts like attack helicopters and big slow transport aircraft.. Russian bombers like the Tupolev can't be hit by manpada, because of the altitude they fly in, the surface to air missiles SAM's like the s300 are the reasons why the Russian pilots are scared of Ukrainian sky The reasons why I am ashamed about the Russian air force is the inability of the Russian military planners to locate and successfully target Ukrainian missile defences sites Early into the war to render them inactive, instead Putin pushed tanks and armoury all cluster together thinking this was ww2, those long convey as soon as they don't have air cover were ambush and destroy by the Ukrainians.. The Russian don't dominate the skies of they did the Ukrainian won't have be able to Mount the knd of offensive they did before winter came. |
Re: US Military Base In Syria Comes Under Heavy rocket fire by obedience4(m): 6:58am On Jan 02, 2023 |
Kingsnairaland: Lol, the old Soviet SAM'S like the s300 is what is driving the Russian pilots from Ukrainian skies. More than 11 months, Russian can't get air superiority over Ukrainian airspace. Of all the military branches of the Russian military, the Russian air force as been the most disappointing in this war, very overrated piece of shit. Seriously when I heard the news that Russia has invaded Ukraine, what that the Russian air force would First attack air defence sites and Ukraine early warning sites ,before sending the infantry ground forces... Instead Russian military planners thought this was ww2 by Moving Large Numbers of tanks and supporting armoury all cluster together without air cover.. Disgraceful a .. Something a recent graduate from the USA military school west point would not make |
Re: US Military Base In Syria Comes Under Heavy rocket fire by Nobody: 7:46am On Jan 02, 2023 |
You have said it all. I thought Russia's approach to the invasion was strange too until I realised that most people don't even understand their strategic objectives. Russia never considered it an invasion right from day one, but a military operation more like what they did in Georgia in 2008. They would advance deep into the country, surround the capital and force the Ukrainian govt to agree to their terms of be overthrown. Unfortunately, they walked into a perfectly laid trap. Years of western support in training weapons and finance, coupled with decades of Russian vilification made sure this objective failed. This explains why thousands of Russian soldiers were sitting around kyiv not even knowing what to do. Also, the more Russia tried to explain what they were trying to do, the more the western powers portray images of a massive invasion, riling up pity and support for Ukraine and hatred for Russia. It took months for Russia to reverse these mistakes but you can see that things have finally changed. Russia could still have take. Ukraine if they wanted, but at catastrophic human losses. I believed US and co could not have imagined how lucky they were. They got so lucky that they got carried away and became overconfident. The only problem was that sanctions are not working and instead of going down, the Russia economy has remained resilient and continues to support the war effort. Also, the villificatiin of Russia did not work on non western countries and Russia has forged new allies whilst other countries started undermining the US. It is a stalemate at this moment but you can see clearly that Russia has regained the initiative. obedience4: |

Re: US Military Base In Syria Comes Under Heavy rocket fire by obedience4(m): 9:31am On Jan 02, 2023 |
Kingsnairaland: Just one destroyed s300 missile system doesn't changed the tide of a war.. We are talking about a comprehensive destruction of Ukraine capacity of defending it skies from Russian military jets and bomber Giving the Russian military air force a free day in Ukraine skies ,you are referring me to an article showing a single system been hit, that doesn't make any difference, The status quo still remains and it is Ukrainians have successfully kept the 3rd largest air force from dominating it skies |

obedience4: At the first month of the war Russia destroyed every thing Ukraine had Ukraine had war ship many weapons all destroyed now Russia went back to take the lands it needs The goal is not to invade all Ukraine if Russia wants to invade they will first carpet bomb there which they can do in the future The goal is four regions first before inflicting pain step by step You will hide when Ukraine finally agrees to let Russia take those places. |

Kingsnairaland: What a funny analysis.. Lol, fingers crossed |
Re: US Military Base In Syria Comes Under Heavy rocket fire by Emma15678: 10:39am On Jan 02, 2023 |
obedience4: You are very funny. Russia took out many long range radar systems ukraine had at the beginning of the war. Ukraines has lost 21 SAMs now. The invention of mobile SAM systems revolutionized warfare. How many SEAD mission did the US fly in Vietnam? How many did they fly in Yugoslavia? When US made the mistake of flying strategic bombers over Vietnam during Linebacker II we know what happened. With mobile SAMS it becomes very difficult to destroy enemy SAMs especially when the enemy knows you are coming. The reason ukraine was able to stage the kharkov offensive was that Russia was very low on troops, the bulk of their combat capable boots were deployed to Kherson and Donbass. Before condemning the Russian Airforce, remember that it's the Airforce that staged very risky operations. During the Zaporozhye and Donbass offensive, these guys were flying 100-200 sorties per day. Remember how they took hostomel. Intotal they have flown 6000 sorties for very low losses. I think the losses in both helicopters and jets total 115. Out of that number only 100 were lost in active combat |
