⚡The United States and its allies fear that strikes against the Houthis could provoke a response from the Yemenis.

Ansarullah's greatest deterrent is its ballistic missiles, which have a range of 2,000 km.

All US assets in the region are within range of these missiles.

Many military experts believe that the United States must evacuate 55,000 American troops from the region before embarking on a full-scale war in the Middle East.

2024 will be interesting especially if Trump emerge victorious @ the polls. His bromance with Putin suggest that US under Trump may force Ukraine to negotiate peace because for Trump, China is a bigger threat to US national interest.

But a Moscow victory in Ukraine means that Taiwan is living on borrowed time.

Interesting times ahead.

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?
my point stands the kinzhal is more advanced does it shoot flares no does that make it inferior?

Your commonsense has hit rock bottom. There is no dumb argument you and your ilk won't bring up in order to prop up your slavemasters. You should run along at this point. When you finally visit the US embassy for your visa interview, screenshot your dumb arguments here and show it to them as your proof of loyalty.

⚡President Putin:

Those who were talking just yesterday about the need to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia are now looking for the right words on how to quickly end the conflict in Ukraine.

We also want to end it, but only on our terms.

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.
The way you compose just dey lie to yourself, dey funny sha!

⚡Zelensky to the West:

Giving us money or giving us weapons, you support yourself. You save your children, not ours.

If Russia is allowed to take Ukrainian children, they will take other children.

If Russia violates the rights of Ukrainians, it will violate the rights in the world.

If Ukraine loses, Mr Putin will bring his wars closer to the West.

Putin feels weakness like an animal, because he is an animal. He senses blood, he senses his strength. And he will eat you for dinner with all your EU, NATO, Freedom, and democracy.

⚡Britain and other European countries are “cranking through the gears” trying to ensure they can help Ukraine win its war against Russia without the US should Donald Trump get into power, The Times reports.

Ministers are desperately trying to ramp up manufacturing capabilities across the continent so they can send weapons and ammunition to the front line and keep Vladimir Putin at bay for at least another year, irrespective of US support.

⚡If USSR had not collapsed, about 320 million people would now be living in it. On December 30, 1922, a new state appeared on the political map of the world - the Soviet Union. USSR existed for 69 years and disintegrated into 15 independent countries.

Almost all the countries that went the Western route declined in population.

Meaning they're dying faster than new births or their economy is so shitty that they are migrating in search of greener pastures.

I doubt what they lack is the men to "pump" the women. It's the women who are unwilling to get pregnant so they don't loose shape.

In South Korea, looking good is everything.


It has nothing to do with losing shape but alot to do with job security, cost of living, debts and the very expensive cost of raising children.
