It will be interesting to see if Israel has a similar experience to Russia. They attacked with a massive advantage and were able to carry out operations with the home front secure, for awhile. Now Ukraine has developed a robust strategic strike capability that is causing serious military and economic damage. Israel may face a similar situation, even with the US willing to participate directly on their behalf.
It must be remembered that Ukraine is using Western arms so while they’re losing in numbers their equipment is of superior quality. Hezbollah doesn’t have that advantage, and in fact it’s the opposite since they rely on inferior Russian and Iranian gear.
Robust strategic strike capability 🤣 Ukraine has the full backing of the same financial system, through the very same military industrial complex supporting Israel, and you think they’re plucky underdogs who will come out on top by throwing drones at Russia’s rear. The USA has almost finished exsanguinating Ukraine completely, and now the mercenaries are getting encircled. When is Russia running out of cruise missiles, by the way? In late 2022 I heard that would be soon. You seem very informed about these matters, please fill me in!
You didn’t contradict anything they said, so…
The only part I agree with is yes long range drones can get past air defense, but this is still a reversal of the actual lines of modern warfare. Israel is a highly aid dependent tourist trap lol, Hezbollah is a guerrilla army backed by a growing regional industrial power that may end up outproducing them in years to come, and has a shitton of drones and missiles, they could go way further than the Russians do hitting electrical transformers and blacking out cities, they could hit Israeli nuclear reactors.
Long range drones are small potatoes, the US+allies are running out of air defense production, and they will not give Ukraine enough missiles to have Robust Capabilities like this lol. They do this game of touching-you-not-touching-you with Russia like with the Storm Shadow missiles. Not enough to escalate for more than one news cycle. Now Zelensky threatening to use nuclear capable missiles possibly supplied by the west (it takes years to develop) will have implications long after many many news cycles to come. That will make Russia settle for far less leeway territorially.
Russians already warned there would be drone strikes and raids and terror attacks on their soil long after NATO’s aid and mercs are exhausted, this justifies far greater territorial and diplomatic demands to satisfy their national security requirements.
So since Russia will not stop until all military infrastructure in Ukraine is destroyed, the idea of Robust Capabilities relies entirely on aid.
Cheapest way to make a news cycle to try to humiliate the Russians, that leaves drone striking apartment buildings and oil refineries, or hiding explosives in trucks, or shooting up a crowded place with a sleeper cell. Their statement is self-contradictory with the Ukrainian narrative about Russian drone strikes not being directed at military equipment, only civilians, and how they were impotent rage for losses on the battlefield.
The problem is there was never really a plan to win the war. The hope was to cause Russia economic problems. The issue here is Western economics is based entirely on fraud, and even though Russia’s central bank follows their education, the Kremlin and MOD are relatively and totally independent of that, respectively.
I hope that clarifies whether I disagree with them 🤣
How tedious.
Wait until you try to read a book, you’re in for a real treat then.
It is not the length that makes your posts tedious, it’s the weird Russia fanboyism.
If that were true then you wouldn’t have any problem dispelling my “fanboyism”, but you are the fanboy, I am the historian. You have zero tools to deploy against what I am saying other than whining. It’s actually inappropriate and childish to demand everyone else agree with you without even providing a reason. Here is the thing, you came here from social media where all of your views are trumpeted by other nerds looking for a purpose, not a single view you have would be censored on Reddit. Not a single one. Because your country’s propaganda works on you without a hitch, and you completely align with the impulses it provokes in you.
If you’re going to come here to non-corporate censored social media to shut down what you see as propaganda, why don’t you attack the points that are being made? Oh wait, you don’t know how. You just admitted that thinking about trying to do it makes you tired, it’s too hard, the idea of talking to someone with different beliefs is affronting. Do you understand this is a form of mental stunting you have willingly subjected yourself to? You don’t think about what you’re reading, you judge it based on how much it affirms what you have been told to believe. You are literally on a Finnish website 🤣
