A biblical red glow torments the skies of northern Israel, which now burns with a Zionist’s zeal for Palestinian land, after a series of Hezbollah strikes.
Do they not have a support group in your community where you can go and learn coping strategies like watching reruns of the Bugs Bunny Road Runner hour, instead of having to watch your team having the living shit kicked out of it every day ?
Oh well if Ukraine says they killed half a million, then it must be true and I'm sure once Vlad gets the memo he will be on Russian TV tearfully announcing his resignation and then putting a bullet in his head with his own pistol.
Lol, who is the hypocrite? Did Israel ever extend her borders without ethnic cleansing and genocide? Did she ever ask the inhabitants by a referendum? The internationally recognized borders are those of 1948. All beyond is result of conquest, murder, rape.
The most Jew hating people are the zionists, and people like you.
The Israeli economy is down 35% plus, their war cabinet is at wad with each other, many Israelis have fled the country, northern Israel is evacuated, the Gaza operation has been a total disaster, Israel's leaders are being singled out for genocide by the ICC, Israel is isolated on the global diplomatic stage like never before, and more & more states are recognising Palestine as a nation state.
And it's only getting worse, 24/7.
You say that Israel just doesn't care. I agree - that's been their major problem for quite some time now. If they did care, esp Israel's leaders, they'd have a far better understanding of Israel's weaknesses and vulnerabilities, and would have adopted a course that protects the Israeli nation-state.
Instead, they have become hubristic and have somehow convinced themselves that they are invincible and even worse, God's chosen people to establish Eretz Israel on earth. They've become blind to Israel's vulnerabilities and have let their once feared military and intelligence capabilities, to become lazy, incompetent and ineffective (as was conclusively proven on Oct 7, and has been confirmed since).
You can keep deluding yourself that Israel is on some path to victory, but on current trajectory the reality is that when this is all done, there may well be no Israel. If that happens, Israelis will only have themselves and their leaders to blame.
I wouldn't blame all Israeli citizens any more than we are to blame for how our governments operate. All Western Governments have gone rogue. Democracy and elections are an illusion of power to the citizens.
Ukraine is not 'holding the line'. 50,000 casualties a month with 1,000 plus KIA a day is NOT holding the line.
You say there's a big 'trap' that Russia is being lured into. Those vodka swilling peasants in Moscow must be really stupid, eh? They're so easily fooled by superior western strategists, right?
That's what you obviously believe. And you are 100% wrong.
Like many in the West, you drastically overestimate NATO and underestimate Moscow, which has been a weakness in the western approach to the debacle in Ukraine from Day 1. It's why Ukraine is the greatest disaster for the collective West since 1945, one that is going to have very profound & negative implications for the west and in particular, western Europe and the US.
Here is some conjecture: the fighting will continue until 2027 at least, Ukraine will retreat behind the Dneiper river and continue to bleed out Russian love for a long time; even while losing territory and men.
Kissinger thought that preventing an hegemon arise in Europe would endanger the anglosaxon world maritime empire, which is basicly the English school of geopolitics. They really think they can freeze history and submiss the world to their "rules".
Do you think the attacks on Russia's southern strategic radars could have an Iran link. Given Pepe Escobar's reporting of the possible F35 shoot down (whether true or not). Then there is the helicopter crash. Dangerous games if it is
no, it was a wet-dream of some Polish general or US wannabe general dressed in skirts and lipstick with hair popping up over the frill at the neck of his blouse. But the US is the obvious culprit and that is damned scary. They seem to think they can use Ukraine to attack Russia's early warning system and crickets. Fools. Criminals.
I read a comment on a Youtube video which claimed the Russian radars were used to target the US ships off Yemen and in Red Sea. The US Carrier to be exact. Which is why they were targetted. I'm no radar expert but that sound ridiculous.
Over the horizon "distant early warning" RADAR systems are not of much use at sea level way the frog around the globe.
" It has a range of up to 10,000 km and is capable of simultaneously tracking 500 objects.[7][8] Its horizon range is 6000 km and vertical range is 8000 km (Due to radar horizon, this range is only applicable if target is located at altitude of several thousand kilometers"
You don't understand the difference between OTH radar and all other radar systems. OTH radar has a "look down" ability. OTH works by bouncing off the ionosphereso it must use the short wave spectrum, usually 8-12 MHz - not microwaves which pass straight through the ionosphere, unreflected.
I don't know if OTH is good enough to see a ship at sea, or if it can only see the ionized plume of a rocket motor, which has a huge radar cross-section and is easily identified by its high velocity and Doppler shifting of the return radar beam. OTH radar serves only one specific purpose: early warning, not targeting. But maybe my data is obsolete. The problem is that the ionosphere is a poor mirror. In a few seconds, it can rise or drop by tens of kilometers, which plays hell on accuracy. But maybe modern computing power can iron out those variations.
Weirdly enough, both of the principles were first used by radars by radars accidentally spotting a ship.
The first type has currently different uses. Russian EW radars of types which were hit, don't watch anyone's airspace. It has been said they have a hard cut-off at roughly 150km, because some countries protested about their ability to peek into their airspace.
Other OTH radars (those watching Europe) don't have such a problem, but there's too much clutter close to the ground, they're not that useful (but they can do that).
Then there is the second, surface wave OTH radar type. They were first used by the Soviets to track ships in the Sea of Japan. The downside is, they have to be close to the sea, otherwise they don't really work well (but strictly theoretically, they could work even over mountains).
I've never seen anything about a "hard cut off" for any radar system, other than INTERNAL signal processing which can ignore signals that take too long to come back. The ITU has no treaty which might prevent the use of radars seeing into other nations' airspace. Radar frequency bands are the same world-wide, with few minor regional differences. OTH radar was always an intruder in the HF band and didn't have authorized channels. OTH radar has to change frequencies based on ionospheric conditions. Before perestroika, the USA and the USSR both operated multiple OTH radar systems and no one made a formal complaint. They would move up and down the HF band, blotting out signals for a few minutes and then moving on to bother users on another frequency. OTH radar was - and still is - a vital part of ensuring the peace.
There is only one case where an ITU treaty block signals from one country getting into another, and that's television. TV broadcasts were always supposed to be only national.
"hard cut off" - anything that can't be switched off by the crew at anytime they like. And yes, it's most probably what you just said it is.
"ITU has no treaty" - nobody said it has. It was just a request from certain governments who felt uncomfortable with that and in the interest of friendly relations, you agree to do these kinds of gentlemen agreements.
Well, if Macroleon wishes to send more of his kin to emulate Napoleon's ill-fated invasion, he is welcome to; Russia has plenty of room for them, a 2.5 sqm plot for each one.
Every time I hear macron say they will send French troops to Ukraine, I think "Does he think Russia or anyone is threatened by French troops?" When I think of rough and tough fighters I do not think of the French.
Russia will destroy French troops & others just as easily as Ukrainian troops. Sure, they may be more skilled and kill a few more Russians, destroy a bit more equipment, and delay the inevitable by hour or days. But that's about it. They're not bringing new superlative weapon systems with them. Trenches are trenches. Russia still rules the sky, and it's troops are well trained, well supplied, and more experienced in the Ukraine theater than any foreign troops could possibly be.
Seeing members of the US Congress wave their little Ukrainian flags last month was absolutely sickening, and exposed them all. That's why they panicked when the video got out. They should have waved little white flags 2 years ago,
I'd rather say, easier. While freshly pressed meat may have worse chances, at least the more battle experience part of Ukrainian forces have a concept how it is under relentless drones, shells, and bombs, in trenches where mice and rates bite you and worms and insects slipping in your wettened uniforms, where everything stinks from blood, shit, urine, and rotting corpses. All these snowflake parade "warriors" from NATO won't survive that for longer than a couple of days. Thousands of mercs ran away already.
That was an absurd way to end an otherwise great article. I have been spending time with an elderly relative in a "memory care" facility recently. You cannot trust anything that comes out of Biden's mouth from memory due to advancing dementia. He has all the classic symptoms.
They have recently trained him to alternate between a left and right teleprompter, but it is no less obviously scripted than before.
There are various different types of dementia with symptoms that work in quite different ways. The pattern of mental function you've observed doesn't necessarily transfer to another person. Some dementia sufferers can switch back and forth between bewilderment and decent recollecting ability.
Destruction of a person's physical contract with the Devil causes the body to immediately assume the condition nature would have normally left it in, as per Dorian Grey So we can assume that as a brand new PhD, Henry was thoroughly modern & recorded his contract on (then cutting edge) magnetic tape media... Which had a maximum lifespan of about what Henry demonstrated.
Insist on archival quality acid neutralized paper in all such contracts... A few who used the original aluminum film CD format had less than 30 years to enjoy the kingdoms of the earth!

Marko, Israel is losing this war badly.

Interesting writing style.

The F-35 was just trying to land, not shot down.
Don't they all fall out of the sky?
Only when the oxygen to the pilot cuts out. 👍
Fnar!

@JessDTruth
Information on RADAR was from Wikipedia, not terribly surprised if it is incorrect...
There are two types of OTH radars.
1. Those using ionosphere mirrors.
2. Surface wave radars.

according to some reports the Houthis have seriously damaged the "Ike" w/o RU help.
i agree with you. unless, of course the RU radars were in Yemen. :)
State secrets? To gulag with you.
China has already published satellite images of the Ike and it's escort so that is the way ships are tracked, not with radar.

seems like a good % of them are getting wiped out in the brothels. :)
Macroleon? Better try Microleon!
The slide continues to accelerate, but it's always a lot longer to the bottom than we hope.
Wish they'd just call it at this point, this is just sad.
