    Putin in Syria is clearly not to congratulate all Orthodox Russians on Christmas. The case is clearly in Iran and Iraq.

      Well, it’s not in vain that he came.
      The shameful flight of the US military from Iraq hit the video.

      Despite Washington’s official statement that it did not intend to withdraw its troops from Iraq, it became known that while the question of unleashing World War III in the Middle East was being actively discussed in the world, the US military was urgently evacuated from Balad air base, located 70 kilometers from Baghdad .

        From a military point of view, they did the right thing to relocate their aircraft from this airfield.
        100 km from the Iranian border makes it very vulnerable to possible attacks.

          Seriously? Or maybe from a military point of view, the Amers need to be dumped from all over the Middle East, otherwise Iran has missiles with a range of more than 2000 km, which means they can reach many American bases in the region from a military point of view. dead star-striped will be, but on the Patriot Air Defense there is NO hope.

              Suicide for Americans to remain at these bases as targets. But Americans are not supposed to die according to their worldview. So it’s not the one who is stronger who wins, but the one who is ready to sacrifice and goes to the end. It’s not clear to hired American contractors on these bases that they’re which seems not particularly tempting, for the IRGC to avenge the Legend is not just a matter of honor, but a sacred duty.

                  A missile is expensive for 2000 km, and there are few of them.
                  And for 100 km you can zerg rush a crowd of cheap missiles to arrange
                  And not only missiles. On the same buggy attack of a dozen suicide bombers will destroy the airfield

                As soon as Iran has resorted to active hostilities or committed a major terrorist attack, the UN, EU, NATO and others will legally take up arms against it in the case.
                After that, creating a coalition and rolling Iran into the trash by analogy with Iraq is a simple matter. However, the States can cope without a coalition.

If you consider it legal that the IRGC is recognized by the Americans as a terrorist organization, then the Pentagon and all US troops in response are also recognized by Iran as a terrorist organization. That is, following your perverted logic, they will legally kill American soldiers.

                  In general, I agree with your assessment. We have no enmity with Iran, but there is no strong love either, a situational ally. If a battle begins between the United States and Iran, then the plus is obvious not only in the rise in prices for hydrocarbons and gold, but also in the fact that, being drawn into the Iranian crisis, the United States will be somewhat out of touch with Ukraine and SP-2 (possibly SP-3). which will give Russia the opportunity to settle its problems in these areas, although of course war is bad in all its manifestations, especially on the neighboring frontier. Considering that the Iranians are not quite weak opponents for themselves, it is clear that for the Americans this war will not be an easy walk, and there is a high probability that Iran's opposition with the involvement of "sympathetic" forces will bring American dominance in the BV to zero. So the most correct thing in this situation is to take a pause and watch how events unfold. hi

            Maybe they should dump them, but after about half a year the opposite has been observed --- they begin to split their peacetime air bases into a network of airfield hubs, transferring part of the support forces there. I think that this is done both to ensure survivability, and to base sufficiently large reinforcements / that aviation can transfer very quickly /.
            As for the flight from Balad, it was ideally suited for the occupation of Iraq, but for a possible war with Iran, it fits the depth of impact. But it does not provide the necessary survivability, secrecy and safety of takeoff and landing.

            These missiles are purely weapons of retaliation. The Iranians would not be the first to use them in life, because no matter what losses the Americans would suffer in this case, after that they would not leave stone unturned in Iran, and the ayatollah would also not be left from the current system. And by the way, with the full support of the world community, how Iran will start a full-fledged war.

              They are unlikely to play another role. Firstly, there are quite a few of them. Secondly, there are great doubts about the accuracy of the Iranian missile guidance. Probably they’ll get into the city, and they’re unlikely to get into the aircraft parking at the airport or runway. Especially if the planes are in caponiers.

                Well, if Iranian missiles sprinkle on American bases in the region tomorrow - allies will be added, at least at the expense of the states on which these bases are located)) And if they are well-publicized - maybe someone from Europe will support, although it’s already lucky . In any case, they will not interfere.

                And in general, regarding exaggeration, you exaggerated that in the event of a major conflict (very unlikely, as it seems to me), you should support the Sunni monarchies of the Persian Gulf, and Israel and the WB. Given that the United States even surpasses Iran alone, the situation is not in favor of the latter. But Iran is just in isolation, it has no allies, except perhaps Syria (but what kind of help it can provide) and heaps of Islamic groups, such as Hezbollah, but it is useless against them from the United States.

      The case is clearly in Iran and Iraq.

      Prophecy of the Goat and Aries. I'm afraid that seems like the truth.
      Perhaps the upcoming US aggression against Iran is mentioned in the 8th chapter of the Book of the Prophet Daniel, which describes the “towards the end of time” (Dan. 8, 17) vision of two animals - a goat and a ram, shown to the prophet Daniel during his stay in Suzah (a city in Iran, the former capital of Elam, an ancient state in the southwestern part of the Iranian Highlands). This vision shows the following.



      One-horned shaggy (the United States, by our assumption), which "from the west walked over the face of the whole earth without touching the ground" (American combat aircraft, missiles), attacked the bipedal ram in great fury "and trampled it, and there was nobody (strong allies), who could save the ram from him. " Under the two horns of the ram, as explained by the prophet Daniel, we mean "kings of Media and Persia." Persia is the official name of Iran until 1935. Mussel is a historical region in the northwestern part of the Iranian Highlands, on the outskirts of which the northeastern part of the territory of modern Iraq is located. It is also noteworthy that, as indicated in the Explanatory Bible, "the guardian spirit of the Persian kingdom appears under the image of a ram with pointed horns ... the Persian king, standing at the head of the army, as his leader, wore a ram’s head instead of a diadem." Thus, it can be assumed that the two horns of the ram (ram) are Iraq and Iran. Or Iran and Syria.

            Well, here’s even the opinion of Wikipedia:

            Alawits (alawits, Arabic: العلويون - al-'Alawiyūn) are also known as Nusairites (by the name of the founder attributed by opponents or as diminutive of "noi" - christine); Arab. نصيريون - Nuṣayriyūn, tour Nusayriler), little christians ("little Turks" (in Turkey)), "Ali-Alla" (deifying Ali) - followers of Alavism - an eclectic religion, which can also be viewed as an esoteric offshoot of the Persian direction of Islam and even Shiism and its extreme directions (gulat), with whom Alawites are united by the cult of Ali, the son-in-law and cousin of the Prophet Muhammad [

            The Alawites have a lot of borrowings from Christianity: veneration of Jesus as an incarnation of God, and not as a prophet, like other Muslims, apostles of Christ. The Alawites venerate a number of Christian saints and martyrs, celebrate some Christian holidays (Christmas, Easter, etc.). They carry out communion with wine, etc.

            Alavism (not to be confused with Alevism) is the name of Islamic religious movements, branches or sects that are close to the teachings of Ismaili Shiites and Gnostic Christianity [5]. Some Muslim theologians (for example, followers of the famous fatwa (interpretation / view of the problem) Ibn Taymiyyi believes that the Alawites broke away from Shiism and moved away in their views and religious practice from the dominant Islamic trends, so much that they lost the right to be considered part of Islam in generalturning into a special religion - a mixture of Islam, Christianity and pre-Islamic eastern beliefs ("jahiliya").

            No worse than any, God forgive me, Mormons, who, oddly enough, are also considered Christians. Only on the contrary, it’s even better, because the Mormons have a complete suction from Joseph Smith’s finger, and Alavism (and indeed Islam as a whole) takes its source in the Bible.

              The Alawites are already celebrating Christmas, and they consider Jesus not just a prophet, like the rest of the Muslims, but GOD.

              Quote: https://islam.global/verouchenie/vera/alavity-musulmane-ili-net/
              The book “Kitabul-Majmu” (“Book of Testimonies”), consisting of 16 sections and imitating the Holy Quran, is considered to be the main source of the Alawite creed. The teachings of the Alawites are based on the idea of ​​a trinity, similar to Christianity, which includes: Ali ibn Abu Talib (s.a.), who is considered a deity, Muhammad (s.g.v.) as a reflection of the deity and Salman al-Farisi as the gate of God through his reflection .

              Based on the ideas of the Alawites, Ali ibn Abu Talib (s.a.), who is recognized by the Sunnis as the righteous caliph, and among the Shiites as the righteous imam, appears among the Nusairites as the Lord God Himself. He is considered the creator of all things and the main object of worship. In response to a question about who Allah is, Kitabul-Majmu replies like this: “This is Ali ibn Abu Talib, God.” In addition, the shahada (testimony) among the Alawites reads as follows: “I testify that there is no God but Ali”

                But the fact that the Alawites, with all the eclecticism of their religion, are Christians in the eyes of the other Islamic world is a real fact. And returning to our sheep, I repeat once again: Putin’s visit to Assad just before Christmas is a very smart move, because this holiday is a single and revered in Syria and in Russia. Symbolism is observed from and to. The theme is unity.
                Well, and other goodies. Well, if PUTIN HIMSELF flies to Syria, and some Merkel flies on the carpet to Russia to Putin, then this is hinting at someone, right? ^ _ ^

                    In 2010, most Syrians (92,8%) professed Islam. The largest religious minority was represented by Christians (5% - 6%).

                    A number of religious holidays are celebrated in Syria. officially. Among them, Christmas, Orthodox and Western Easter, Muslim New Year, Eid al-Adha, Eid Al-Fitr and Prophet's Birthday.

                    Do not pretend to be a fool. It is the Alawites who are in power in modern Syria (Pope Assad tried at one time: is it bad or not - now it doesn’t matter, just maemo shaw maemo we have what we have).
                    In modern Syria, the Alawite minority has an elevated political status disproportionate to its size, especially in the armed forces and security services.

                    Putin's visit both reinforces this state of affairs and pacifies the "orthodox" (yes, a kind of oxymoron, but such things are) Sunnis, because now all Syrians have about half a relationship between very positive and admiration towards Russia and the Russians. In short, this visit on this particular day is likely to strengthen unity Syrians, damping the coals of the ever-smoldering conflict between the Sunnis and the Alawites.
                    As for Russia, here it is entirely in the black. Unless, of course, the presidential board is knocked down on the way back. What, essno, is unrealistic.

I don’t give a damn that I’ll prove to someone on the Internet how wrong he is (although in the Armaments section I do it with great pleasure from time to time), but in this case it’s easier for me to give way. I don’t want to raise bones. I said this is personal.

                        Immediately here I will answer the first comment about Chapek. First, you MUST read RUR (the term "robot" was unwittingly invented by Chapek). Secondly, "War with the Salamanders". This is simply the most gorgeous thing not in the plot, but in its presentation. "Fairy Tales" and "Dasha". Well, this is already so, for an amateur, although "Fairy Tales" are scandalous. Chapek also has a lot of great stories, but ... at least try to overcome RUR, salamanders and fairy tales. I think I’ll really like it. Fairy tales - for sure.

              I often think about this topic (not about nudism, essno): is it possible that the small-town power (well, money and RESPECT) is so sweet and important for a person that he voluntarily agrees to become someone else's puppet?
              I live my little life. But she’s free, I don’t dance to the tune of someone else. Well, perhaps to the tune of my kittens, but they have small requests: feed and caress. What I'm only happy to do.

            Well, my grandfather was also an artilleryman, but he beat the Japanese (he served in the Far East). Moreover, the Japanese were essentially innocent towards us in World War II, unlike the Germans (for, sorry for my elven, after Khalkhin Gol, they expectedly fell asleep on the USSR, although Hitler insisted very much).

Now he is raising - he is engaged with many children, I don’t even know how to explain it, the children are different and prosperous and not. he travels with them to regions with different goals and they parachuted with him and he has a lot of trips, he makes march-throws. sponsors to him, I suppose they also give money for this, but how else can they take 20 boys - girls to another area ... but at the same time, despite being not an old person, people come to him to confess and he definitely Don't take a dime. I myself from the Ryazan region, p. Kadom, you can look on the Internet about our outback (interesting). there the truth about another priest will be written a lot (I also know him very well personally) Father Athanasius, but this is a very unusual person.

And if there is, how does it differ from the god in the icon, what is standing in the corner of the house?
                  At first, I didn’t attach any importance to these words .. there was the middle of the 80s .. Then Niva came to the state farm .. new one .. two fathers came out from whom jeans and sneakers were visible under a cassock ..
                  Then a truck arrived .. lowered the side, two such ..strong..shock-bearers got up there .. and they just watched as grandmothers carried them food and dragged heavy bags into the truck .. And then the meaning of her words began to reach me ..
                  And finally I was finished off by such a situation .. After the war in the south people planted fruit trees along the roads, my grandmother worked at Plodosovkhoz .. and therefore the road from Ostrogozhsk to the state farm was planted with apple and pear trees. They planted trees for general use ..
                  In the 90s I came to visit my grandmother .. well, my daughter and wife drove me to pick up some apples .. I arrive where there are early huts, and there the lawn and guys in robes cheerfully carry apples to the truck .. When I began to pick apples, they were a little on me with fists didn’t rush .. let's yell - Che ut ut apples you take, not yours !!!

This is just a business on the feelings .. or the errors of people. Moreover, the business is profitable ... there are no taxes, even from the state there are no buns ... in the form of real estate, you can claim it. Moreover, all social programs ... with homeless people, people with disabilities, treatment are decided either on state money or people collect it. The ROC stupidly stuffs moshna .. spitting on everything that can not bring them income.
                        So .. I’m talking about the church in with. Bukhalovo .. People there upholstered all the rapids in the regional representative office of the Russian Orthodox Church .. asked to help restore the church. As a result, they restored it for their money .. here and everything you need to know about the modern Russian Orthodox Church.
                        And I do not deny the presence of worthy people in this system ... but for some reason all of them are at the grassroots level ... they live in exile ..

                  The tariff for baptism, the Samara region, the village of Bolshaya Ryazan - 1500 rubles, the village of Sancheleevo - 1200 rubles, Tolyatti, Avtozavodsky district - from 1000 rubles. Prices for commemoration, funeral, baptism are in any church. Is it from God?

                    Well, it’s not strong in religious rites, of course, that I agree to the price lists for commemoration and funeral services, I’ll definitely find out how we deal with it now (what prices). but a couple of years ago I was in Diveevo myself, so as far as I remember the tariffs were different, from cheap (which I allowed myself) to expensive, I speak for prayers for the departed (like that is called), that is, I haven’t I agree and do not agree (as an option, you could take rites with the participation of the patriarch). but the fact that I don’t have such a problem in a poor village worries me. Well, if you're right, can you try to explain to me how the church can exist outside of finance? because the temples need to be repaired (as an example, large sums), the priest must also live, feed his family (they should not fast all the time), there are some utensils for the church to buy, they probably still have expenses .... here I’m giving you I don’t prove anything, here I ask how do you think ... about God? God probably doesn’t need money, but so that people remember, know God, then people work there, they need money (in my opinion). although I’ll tell you again my vision, the priests are people, and people are all different, I started talking for it, it turns out that we have different impressions from the church and priests, I wrote to you that I didn’t notice the financial issue in my wedding, in my baptism child and in the commemoration of loved ones, but you have a different opinion, because you have a different opinion, I absolutely do not say that you are wrong!

                    By the way, as an option, I’ve been to the Sanaksar Monastery several times, I spent the night in a free hotel, ate free food, I didn’t do much (if I wanted), I never drove any money there (if the current is a trifle), but again, of course, I’m there I didn’t conduct any ceremonies, the elder father Ironim used to live there, so I went to him, everything was free - that's for sure. By the way, I also went to Diveevo and many friends, I never heard that someone didn’t like it or had problems with financial issues at all .. maybe I don’t notice it, because there is no antipathy, maybe ... since childhood I have known several priests (from the village of Kadom), one of them is Father Athanasius (thousands of people are coming to him), I can repeat myself again, he does not take money. you can come without money at all and don’t buy anything at church; it will just accept you and try to help .. well, what else can I say, he could make big money, but he don’t need them already, probably ...

                    maybe today I’ll go to the nearest church, now I’m in Ryazan (if I’m not ashamed of the reason) and try to see the price list where my daughter baptized ..

I’ll say right away that not all churches could be restored, and even if I were a priest, it would be difficult to explain to my children why they can eat current on church holidays, because outside the holidays, there would definitely not be any income (well, as an example). do you get money for work every month? in the army they receive for service, in the police every month, and the priests depend only on donations for their lives and their families? correctly ?
                        By the way, we have an icon in Kadoma’s monastery, so people donated to this icon (gold things, chains, rings, etc.), hung on a rope in front of it and lay ..., so we climbed in before the new year crooks and all gold (donations) stole. the police still haven’t found ...

                        That's right here. However, in Orthodoxy there has never been and is not mandatory tithingOr indulgences. But, excuse me, at least city temples need to survive for something. These are only large monasteries self-sufficient, because there, the brethren can still provide for themselves at the very least (and even here there is a huge difference with what was happening in Catholic Europe, and as it was with us: Catholics really were panas and in fact owners of all resources, roads, and people in towns / villages of your estates ... you won’t detach - we will be excommunicated. That's why they always had graters with kings, because the Western Catholic mafia squeezed out a lot of state revenues).

The author is the head of the Surgut and Khanty-Mansiysk parishes of the Russian Orthodox Church, a veteran of the Great Patriotic War. "Young girls entered the church without headscarves, and their old women naturally drove them out of the church. So the priest writes that this caused harm to the church, not benefit. After that, these girls will never come to church. And you just had to explain what and how. And on the contrary say hello "Truly it is said make a fool to pray to God - he will break his forehead"

But it looks like the situation in the Middle East has escalated to red and that is why Putin moved his voyage to an early date. I am sure that Russia will try to delay the start of hostilities between Iran and the United States.

    "The information we had, and which we consider very weighty, indicated that Soleimani and those with whom he was in cahoots were preparing to kill a large number of American diplomats and soldiers in the coming days," he told Fox News ...

    Most of Assad’s entourage, and he himself prefers ties with Iran, rather than with Russia. A kind of pro-Iranian party in the Syrian leadership. The basis of this connection was the murdered Suleymani. He is not there, the Iranians got a problem, they are unlikely to care about Syria now ... Well, there will be. But not to the extent that before. Or the connection will not be of the same quality as under Suleymani. It is beneficial for us, Putin triumphs, coming to the fore in relations with the Syrians. The base is important, the base. Stalin wanted a base in the Dardanelles. Then it didn’t work, and now the Turks are stirring up the strait, they are going to dig a canal. It is very good that we now have a base in the Mediterranean. But Asians, they are such, constantly now they will have to hug them and press them to their hearts.

Moreover, the business is profitable ... there are no taxes, even from the state there are no buns ... in the form of real estate, you can claim it. Moreover, all social programs ... with homeless people, people with disabilities, treatment are decided either on state money or people collect it. The ROC stupidly stuffs moshna .. spitting on everything that can not bring them income.

    So .. I’m talking about the church in with. Bukhalovo .. People there upholstered all the rapids in the regional representative office of the Russian Orthodox Church .. asked to help restore the church. As a result, they restored it for their money .. here and everything you need to know about the modern Russian Orthodox Church.
    2. this does not prove anything.. I will come and ask to build a church in my village and that the regional representative office is obliged to immediately build a church in my village? just tell me are you obligated or not obligated?
