Hama In memory of Governor Anas Abder-Razzak Naim


The Syrian city of Hama is rooted in the deepest antiquity. On the hill around which it is located, life existed as far back as the 5 millennium BC. In the old days, the city was called Hamataya. It is known to modern tourists as the city of norias - huge water wheels that moved the river Oront. With the help of special small bowls, as the wheel rotated, water rose from the river, then merged into a diversion chute, from where it flowed into aqueducts. Now, despite the fact that there is a modern water supply system, the wheels are still spinning. The largest of these, Muhammadia, with a diameter of 21 m, was built in the 14 century. It supplied water to the Great Mosque.



Before Syria was overwhelmed by a bloody wave of terrorism - many tourists flocked to Hama to look at the spinning wheels, the ancient palace of Qasr al-Azem, the Grand Mosque ...



Now there are practically no tourists - the arrival of foreigners is perceived as exotic. Local boys surround visitors and want to take pictures with them. “Rusia, Rusia,” they shout cheerfully.
Children bathe in the Orontes River and jump from the base of a huge water wheel. The city lives its normal life. In the summer of 2011, gangs tried to turn it into their enclave. They worked unprecedented cruelty. In particular, they managed to seize the building of the police department. 20 police officers were brutally murdered. Their mutilated bodies were dumped from a bridge into a rivulet. At the same time, the terrorists themselves posted on the network a video clip on which they lodge over a supporter of the legitimate government, after which they hang it.
But such atrocities were taken by the “international community” for granted. The ambassadors of the USA and France came to the city of Hama, expressed support for the evil terrorists, and spoke of Hama as a "bulwark of democracy." Legitimate government introduced into the city Tanks, regained control. Oh, how then the world media broadcast that the “regime” was destroying Hama!
In fact, there is no destruction in the city. Due to decisive and quick actions of the country's leadership, the hotbed of terrorism was eliminated with minimal losses. Oh, how then the USA, France and other Western countries were disappointed that they did not succeed in turning the city into a center of terrorism! They hurried to break off diplomatic relations with Syria.



And now the city is alive, and its neat white stone houses quietly bask in the sun. This picture is very different from what happened in many other cities in Syria, where the terrorists managed to gain a foothold at least for a few months! There are dark ruins, watered with the blood of civilians executed by the "opposition", whose only fault was that they supported the law and did not want the power of terrorists!
The city of Hama was saved from this fate, including the efforts of Governor Anas Abder-Razak Naim, who was killed by 25 August terrorists. He was appointed to this position immediately after the hotbed of terrorism was eliminated. I happened to meet him in person.
This was in November 2011 of the year. Our delegation visited Hama. Then, due to lack of time, we could not see the sights of the city, but we were hospitably received by the governor in the beautiful city hall. He shook everyone's hand, answered the delegates' questions. I remembered him as a pleasant and affable person, although very tired - in the city and in the country even then there were a lot of problems ...



During this time, leaders of many provinces were replaced. But the governor of Hama remained in his post - this suggests that he brilliantly carried out his duties.
The murder occurred in the area of ​​Jaraim, on a quiet street, not far from the Old Town. Terrorists left a mined car on the sidewalk. Probably the explosive device had a remote control. It was stuffed with striking elements, such as metal balls or nails - a pillar standing next to the explosion site was riddled with them. Moreover, the blow was very precisely directed.



The governor of the province of Hama was born in 1962 year. He was a doctor by profession. It is not by chance that now, in these difficult times, many doctors are among the leaders of Syria, including President Bashar Al-Assad himself. Apparently, this is a sign that the world needs healing, and Syria should play a huge role in this ...
Locals say that the governor was very attentive to ordinary people. He took them as a true doctor takes his patients. I listened, helped ...
Supporters of the Syrian "opposition" say that, they say, the Alawis have power in the country, who allegedly oppress the Sunni majority. Nothing like this! In particular, this proves the example of Anas Abder-Razzak Naim, who was from a very respected Sunni family. Among his relatives were two very respected Sunni religious figures, and therefore many residents did not think that the bandits would kill him. But they kill everyone - Sunnis, Alawites, and Christians. And especially - people of business, strong business executives, good specialists, in order to exsanguinate the country, to deprive it of the best national personnel.
There is an opinion that people who are in power are in a certain privileged position, they are far from the people. But not so was the deceased. There are situations when a chair turns into a cross ... And a very heavy cross, the carrying of which ends tragically ...
The funeral of the governor, who honestly performed his duty to the Motherland, turned into a demonstration. Minister of National Reconciliation Ali Haydar arrived, who, on behalf of the President of the country, expressed deep condolences to the relatives of the fallen and residents of the city of Ham.
And the city continues to live its life, and the huge water wheels still squeak as they did hundreds of years ago. The melancholy sounds they make are so sharply contrasted with the harsh, deadly roar of explosions ...

Until the trigger is not released



All this week, threats of foreign invasion are being heard against Syria. Louder than all, as in the situation with Libya, France screams. As for Britain, its parliament voted against the intervention.
The blows were expected already these days. Residents do not panic. Here they are accustomed to blood and death - the terrorists killed so many people that there was not a single family left that did not lose a relative. The blows of the United States and NATO, of course, will kill much more, but the weak have long gone. The rest are ready for anything.
The so-called "opposition leader" Ahmad Zharba called on the United States and Western countries to strike at Syria. He does not mind that so much of everything beautiful will burn in the fire of devilish aggression! It’s not a pity that a country that has already been turned into a “hot spot” by terrorists can turn into a complete bloody hell. He hopes to gain power over the ashes.
France made a statement that the strike is preparing 4 September. Earlier it was said that it will be applied 29 August. But the night on which the bombing was expected was calm.
At this time, the Russian ships are pulling up to the Syrian coast, and the inhabitants of the country once again enthusiastically say, "Thank you, Russia." The country is engulfed in vague hopes that the punishing hand will stop at the last moment. If not, there will be resistance. Even to cope with Libya, which is much worse armed and had a relatively small army, NATO took almost a year ...
Yes, in the case of aggression victims will be many. But Syria will survive and win. While the trigger has not yet been released. There is still a little time to stop the madness. To save lives and a centuries-old civilization is the cradle of humanity. Hope for a miracle - and Russia ...

            Moscow, August 31.
            Russia has delayed the supply of arms to Syria, the first MiG-29M / M2 fighters will not be able to enter the Arab country in 2013, as planned, but only in 2016, Kommersant writes.
            According to the publication, the main reason for the change in the delivery time was the "accumulated financial difficulties" faced by the Syrian authorities.
            Under a contract concluded in 2007, the Russian Federation is to supply 12 MiG-29M / M2 fighters to Syria. Deliveries have already been delayed due to France's refusal to transfer navigation system technology for cars. Later, a military conflict in the country caused a pause.

            At the same time, the publication’s sources state that the situation with the supply of S-300PMU2 air defense systems to Syria is still in limbo.

            The 2010 agreement provided for the delivery of six anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) by the second quarter of 2014. But its implementation did not begin, according to a source close to the Russian system of military-technical cooperation, because of the freezing of the contract caused by Moscow’s unwillingness to aggravate relations with the US and Israel ......... bewilderment

              It can be said for an arbitrarily long time that our Moscow will not abandon Syria, that settlement work is underway, that Russia's influence in international politics is growing. And so on and so forth ... But when it comes to disrupting the supply of arms to countries that are a potential target of US strikes, somehow it all starts to look unconvincing, faded and cheap.

                Such actions of our government look illogical against the backdrop of the critical situation in Syria. The media say that one of the reasons for not delivering arms to Syria, in addition to financial and others, is the blockade of NATO delivery routes. How to understand it?

                  Question: what exactly are the actions of our government looking illogical? Is it necessary to take from 300 to 6 months to study C 12 calculations, and this when training in Russia? And Syria does not have this opportunity. The fact that the orders are not paid and it is not clear when the payment will be made, because Syria also does not have this possibility (but I think this is not critical). Why now the Syrian Air Force Yak 130? Explain? They practically do not use aviation.
                  What kind of cries? There would be expediency, there would be supplies. Or do you think that this initiative is not agreed with the Syrian side?
                  Russia helps Syria by other methods, and it works. If not for the Russian government, then a country like Syria would not exist long ago, at least as a single independent state. Not a single country (including Iran) has taken 1/10 of the measures that Russia has taken. Therefore, there is no need for mourning marches, no need to snarl over lost Russia. Because these snot are advantageous to our probable friends and they also produce stuffing of these snot. And about the blockade of delivery routes, let CNN, BBC, etc.
                  Do not repeat nonsense.

                    I would take your comment normally, and commented in response, if you were not rude - watch the language buddy, "snot", "yell" and "rave" while we have you. Learn to respect the opinions of others - otherwise, the dialogue will not work, and not only with me.

                    Still I will answer:
                    - about the S-300 and training, etc. - The contract for the supply of S-300 was signed in 2011 - there was more than enough time.

                    - regarding payment - the majority of arms deliveries in Syria go to borrowed funds from Russia.

                    - the same contracts were signed for aircraft for a long time and should be in Syria for a long time, statements that Syria does not need combat aircraft - this is just nonsense, with the same success it can be argued that Syria does not need any weapons at all - that's all bombed equally - can surrender right away?

                    - about expediency - there is expediency in any weapon - is a war coming or are you not aware? Do not you think that the question of expediency in this situation is inappropriate and looks like a far-fetched reason for the failure to fulfill previously concluded contracts?

                    - Regarding the coordination with the Syrian side, are you sure about this? I don’t think it’s more likely your personal fabrications not confirmed by any evidence.

                    - I’ll correct you about the help - Russia helped Syria with arms supplies on the diplomatic front and, of course, Syria would have been difficult without Russia, but there is one thing - this help is clearly insufficient, as in arms deliveries (which are now suspended according to statements by our authorities and this is not my invention), and in diplomacy - our Foreign Ministry is clearly not coping and not active enough - Lavrov’s bleating alone is worth it, okay, Putin spoke and straightened out the situation a bit!

                    - regarding other countries, how do you know about the volumes of their assistance? Iranians have long been fighting on Assad’s side for a long time, just like Lebanese Hezbollah.

                    - regarding the blockade, here is the statement of our official: "Western countries, arming the Syrian opposition, are trying in any way to block the supply of Russian military equipment and weapons to the legitimate government in Damascus." Such a blockade exists, "said the head of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC Russia) Alexander Fomin.
                    "Our sea and air transport is arrested, lured into ports under various pretexts, blocked, and when ships are at sea, insurance is canceled, that is, any attempt to deliver the contracted cargo is blocked," he said, speaking on Friday on the Ekho Moskvy radio station. ". Fomin called it "a real undeclared war." Read the full site: http: //newsland.com/news/detail/id/1135120/ - so this is not nonsense.

                Modern air defense systems serve highly professional cadres of military specialists who are not in Syria, and also require layered anti-sabotage defense and protection of the air defense systems themselves, which the Syrian army is not able to provide.
                Now, hypothetically, imagine that Russia is sending complexes to Syria along with combat crews and technical specialists: one of the tasks of the US "Syrian campaign" is precisely to draw Russia into this campaign. As soon as air defense complexes with Russian combat crews appear, a targeted missile and aviation bombardment of the deployment sites will begin, sabotage groups will be abandoned to destroy equipment and crews. In war, as in war, losses of manpower, as well as technology, are inevitable. Ultimately, both calculations and equipment will be destroyed. There is no doubt about it.
                Today's Russia is militarily and economically incapable of compensating for these losses and getting involved in the conflict by introducing a sufficient military and technical contingent. This means that her now small international authority will generally fall below the stool. In addition, as soon as the "cargo 200" goes to Russia from Syria, the "fifth column" will immediately appear on the scene with rallies and protests. And we can confidently assume that all forces will be used for internal political destabilization. I am not a supporter of Putin's comprador regime, but I am against such a scenario of a change of power, since then the neoliberals of the 90s will break through to power, and Russia will finally be allowed to flow and plunder. And this is actually one of the goals of the "Syrian campaign for democratization"

The main thing is the fact of delivery and putting on combat duty. And how much people can bullet is, let American generals risk on their pilots finding out. At least someone, doubt it, is the result.

                Partly right. All our work looks faded. Here you just need to create a background. The Americans have been training their satellites for more than half a century and have created the same background for everything they want, while ours are just being applied. The world financial system is tied to amers. It is worth remembering here the internal traitors such as the hunchbacked bear, the guydar and others. So it turns out - there is not much weight in world politics (background), inside the country there is sabotage by agents of influence. There is no economic independence as such - the rules are imposed on us. So it turns out that Moscow is afraid to spoil relations with Washington.

                  What we don’t know is what the government knows. And how much we will not argue here, everything will be wrong. And hat-making is not good. Many, whom the States merge, were friendly with them themselves and they did not need Russia. Orem is a lot for Libya. But Libya itself flirted with the States and everyone else. Well, what could we do, send our guys? I do not think that you would say well about Putin when the coffins of our soldiers would come. Therefore, whatever Russia does, everything will be bad. After all, many say that Putin is bad. But he knows what we do not know. So you have to wait. And I personally am against us starting a war.

                I explain.
                You need to learn from successful successes, not from your mistakes. Since the main language on the planet is English, and the main money is Anglo-Saxon, USA-UK, they can be considered geopolitically successful. And learn from them, including the geopolitics they invented.
                “How hard it is to live when no one is at war with Russia.





                Therefore, I argue that it is shortsighted to consider a country as an unchanging ally or eternal enemy of England. We have no permanent allies, we have no eternal enemies. Only our interests are unchanging and eternal, and our duty is to follow them. - Speech in the House of Commons March 1, 1848


                Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England. We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow.

                Another translation option:
                We have neither eternal allies, nor constant enemies, but our interests are constant and eternal, and it is our duty to protect them. - V.N. Vinogradov, “Lord Palmerston in European Diplomacy”, Modern and Contemporary History No. 5 2006

                Variations on the theme of this quote are also popular, for example:
                England has neither permanent allies, nor permanent enemies. England has only permanent interests.
                "

                This does not mean that we should throw everyone like the Anglo-Saxons or destroy the population of other countries like them. But Russia's interests must be above all!

              In my opinion at the moment, they won’t do the weather there, but a couple of radars and air defense systems (S-300, Shell, etc.) are very necessary, so they are bought with scarce money, the country is ruined. As Bashar Al-Assad himself said, Russia is fulfilling the terms of the contracts.

              This news angered me. Of course, I do not know what the rulers of Russia are washing. It is regrettable if the money issue has become so important for Russia. Especially voicing these problems at this point. In my opinion, they could have waited with statements about "pauses and suspensions". In the end, Russia has forgiven Syria about 12-13 billion dollars for forgiving another couple of billions. After all, we are beating in the chest that Syria is our last frontier.
              And if this is true, then there is a proposal.
              In the past difficult years of our country - the Second World War, there was such a popular initiative, the people donated their savings for the defense of the country. With this money-savings, military equipment was purchased abroad, or built at our factories. Now the time has come - HOMELAND CALLING, if the rulers suddenly today began to count money, can the whole world create a fund to help Syria. With these funds, order the military-industrial complex of Russia necessary for Syria aircraft and air defense systems.

                People, do not drive Purgu. Read the comments above!
                What are you like small. Russia is not obliged to send calculations of S-300 and other specialists to Syria before the bombing. Will you explain to their mothers why ... why they died? They are doing everything right. Syrians should be trained in Russia. Why do you think NATO instructors train terrorists in Qatar, and not in Syria itself ?! If you guessed it, then you understood the rest!
                All that Russia can do for Syria! Zaparila their last line! WE ARE NOT THE USSR! Here everything must be weighed and not in a hurry. Seven times measure cut once! And not ololo Rush in the center! So only deer do it! Slowly, the Navy ships will be pulled up, they will create Diplomatic pressure on all fronts so that the minds and thoughts of the West are opposed to the war and then quietly push the NATO ships out. The Americans themselves are not happy that they got involved in all this. But they just can’t leave, face loss. Take Abamka, it’s spinning like a frying pan, it’ll say so, then that way .. Time in any case works for us.

                  I have minus you not because you are wrong, all of you reason correctly. It is dangerous to lose C300 in case of unforeseen situations, and specialists need to be trained, and that we create a caring "background".
                  But the minus is that after a fight they don’t wave their hands.
                  In my opinion, the contract for the C300 was signed back in 2007. Crews teach not after sending the equipment, but only when the "stone" is laid. And this "background" is more convincing when you have fulfilled the first two points - you did it, you taught it.
                  Thank God that time still works for us, but with your similar reasoning, this time we’ll sleep too

      Putin called accusations against Assad "utter nonsense"
      31.08.13/15/09 XNUMX:XNUMX Middle East


      President Vladimir Putin called "utter nonsense" the accusations against the Syrian authorities that they used chemical weapons against the rebels. This was reported on August 31 by Interfax.

      "In the conditions of the offensive of the Syrian army, to say that the Syrian government used chemical weapons is utter nonsense," he said during a visit to Vladivostok.

      The Russian president called on the US authorities to provide UN inspectors with evidence that it was Bashar al-Assad's troops who used weapons of mass destruction. "Links that they have such evidence, but they are secret, and they cannot provide it to anyone, do not stand up to criticism. This is simply disrespect for their partners and participants in international activities," Putin said. His words are quoted by RIA Novosti.

      Putin reminded Barack Obama that he is a Nobel Peace Prize laureate and urged him not to rush into the war in Syria. According to the head of Russia, the United States has more than once been the initiators of armed conflicts. "Has this solved at least one problem: Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon? After all, there is neither calmness, nor democracy there, as our partners allegedly aspired to, there is no elementary civil peace and balance," - Interfax quotes Putin. He invited his American counterpart to discuss Syria at the G20 summit, which will be held in St. Petersburg on September 5 and 6, 2013.

      At the same time, Putin praised Britain, whose authorities refused to participate in the military operation against the Assad regime. He admitted that the decision of the British Parliament came as a surprise to him. "All of us, including myself, in recent years we have become accustomed to the fact that in the Western community everything is accepted without much discussion," the president added.

      The US authorities announced a possible military operation against the Syrian army after it became known on August 21 about the use of chemical weapons in Syria. Washington, as well as Paris and London, called Assad's troops guilty, while he blamed the rebels. The UN inspectors tried to figure this out, who should announce the results of their investigation in the coming days.

        As I see right now, Barak will hear a reminder of VV P that he is a laureate of a dynamite magnate prize, will cry, and immediately ask for forgiveness from Assad :)

        The words are good, but at least someone will listen to them in the White House, let alone react? :( Now, if I added - "we are sending our battalion of guys who were in Yugoslavia to see what there is, and we will give them the S-500 for defense :)", such words would be noticed ...

But he considered it a waste of time to enter into polemics. Should you act like a "quiet guy"?

Rather, the second, because your pro-Putin the position is well known. Does it make sense of a dialogue with an interlocated interlocutor? Therefore, I write further not addressing you. Methods of preventing war are as old as peace: concluding agreements with a party threatened by aggression and providing humanitarian and military-technical assistance cabbage soup; creating alliances with all countries interested in the world; providing direct armed assistance; exerting diplomatic pressure on the aggressor and imposing sanctions. By carrying out all these methods to the fullest extent and as necessary, not half as in the Russian Federation, it is possible to solve the problem of preventing war. Of course, the Russian Federation has all the necessary capabilities for this. Of course, in terms of its economic and military potential, the Russian Federation can not be compared with the USSR, but the existing potential, the presence of nuclear weapons makes it possible to conduct a full-fledged a policy of upholding one's national interests.

And the oligarchic leftist, according to various estimates, only in Cyprus from 19 billion euros. From 19. And how many more offshore. And why only oligarchic? And Gazprom holds funds there, and VTB. So the volume of foreign capital in Russia is not critical.

                      Sergey, I also apologize for the small off-top, but this is to local private companies, which the small comrades were able to earn themselves. Who is bigger, only part of the money is invested back in the Russian Federation - like Lisin, but for example Abramovich also prefers to invest in foreign countries in the form of castles and yachts, and infa fails about enterprises. Mordashov is remembered to Severstal bought a lot of things in Europe, I don’t know what is happening to him now. But far to go, even our small Siberian cement holding, even by Russian standards, bought Turkish plants. Exporting capital to safer areas to diversify risks however :)

        Operation Caucasus
        In this situation, the President of Egypt, Gamal Abdel Nasser, secretly visited the Soviet Union and convinced the Soviet leadership of the need to cover the facilities of the Egyptian Forces by Soviet forces. Despite the fact that these actions could significantly aggravate Soviet-American relations, the Soviet government decided to provide direct military assistance - the operation was code-named "Caucasus". In preparation for its implementation, the 18th Division of Special Purpose Anti-aircraft Missile Forces, the 135th Fighter Aviation Regiment and the 35th Separate Fighter Aviation Squadron were formed behind the scenes [5]. At the end of December 1969 - the beginning of 1970, Egypt, to conduct reconnaissance work (selection of elements of the combat formations of units and air defense units), a group of high-ranking officers of the USSR Air Defense Forces headed by Army General P.F. Batitsky visited. On January 2, 1970, this group of 10 people met with President G. A. Nasser and Vice President A. Sadat. During the meeting, Batitsky personally introduced all of his companions, and when he characterized the head of the political department of the Air Defense Forces, Colonel General I.F. Khalipov, a funny thing happened - Nasser did not understand what this position was, and then Batitsky translated the meaning of his position as “spiritual father ". They explained to the president that this was the main “mullah” of Soviet anti-aircraft gunners, and, according to eyewitnesses, Nasser was pleased with the wit of the Soviet generals [6]. On January 9, 1970, two Il-18 planes took off from the Chkalovsky airfield near Moscow, on board which the next group of generals and senior officers of the USSR Ministry of Defense flew to Egypt. The group was headed by Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Air Defense Forces, Colonel-General A.F. Shcheglov and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force, Army General A.N. Efimov. The group included generals A.I. Belyakov, A.K. Vankov, L.A. Gromov, M.I. Naumenko and a number of officers of the General Staff, air defense forces, air forces, and RTV. Upon arrival in Cairo from the first day, intense and responsible work began, which took place in close cooperation with the military personnel of the Egyptian armed forces, the commanders of the armed forces, the Ministry of Defense and the personnel of military advisers in Egypt.

          Having received the order of the Minister of Defense of the Soviet Union, Marshal A. A. Grechko on the operation "Caucasus", Commander-in-Chief of the Air Defense Forces of the country, Army General P. F. Batitsky convened a meeting to which his deputies were invited - Colonel General A. F. Shcheglov, Colonel General A. AND. Pokryshkin, member of the Military Council, Colonel General I. F. Khalipov, Chief of the General Staff, Colonel General V. D. Sozinov, military commanders - Lieutenant General F. Bondarenko (anti-aircraft missile troops), Lieutenant General M. Beregovoy (radio troops), Lieutenant General A. AND. Kadomtsev (fighter aircraft) and heads of departments - operational (Lieutenant General G. Skorikov), personnel (lieutenant general of aviation L. AT. Vakhrushev), rear (lieutenant general of aviation V. М. Shevchuk). After the announcement of the order P. F. Batitsky set specific tasks for the development of Operation Caucasus, the formation of the 18th Special Purpose Anti-Aircraft Missile Division, and its combat coordination at the Ashuluk and Yangaja training grounds. On the same day, the terms of readiness for sending to Egypt were determined, an order was issued by the commander of the air defense armies on the preparation of divisions and special forces, which were to be part of the formed brigades. By the appointed date, the Operations Directorate of the General Staff of the Air Defense Forces of the country has developed a plan for the operation. Work was completed on the formation of the division, its armament, and material and technical support; necessary training and firing at high-speed low-altitude targets were conducted at the training grounds. During the report P. F. Batitsky to the Minister of Defense on the completion of preparations for the operation "Caucasus" - the Minister of Defense approved the work done, and recommended strengthening the division with another five to seven divisions. The Commander-in-Chief replied that being both a member of the Central Committee of the CPSU, he was responsible for the air defense of the USSR and could not single out any more divisions. After a short pause, the Minister of Defense said: “Well, okay, okay, let's limit ourselves to this.” The combat units were legends as "agricultural specialists." The personnel were changed from military uniforms to civilian trousers, jackets and coats. The difference between officers and warrant officers from the rank and file was that officers and warrant officers put on hats, and rank-and-file officers took berets [9]. The transfer of troops to Egypt was carried out in February and early March 1970. The first units of the Soviet limited contingent arrived on March 5 and 8, 1970. to the port of Alexandria on the motor ships "Rosa Luxemburg" and "George Chicherin." These were the divisions of Soviet anti-aircraft gunners, under the leadership of Major General P. G. Smirnov, and fighter aviation regiments under the leadership of Major General Aviation G. W. Dolnikova. When transporting troops by sea from Nikolaev, all measures of secrecy were observed. Officers, soldiers and sergeants handed over personal documents, dressed in civilian clothes, and upon arrival in Alexandria - in the uniform of the Egyptian army. The loading and unloading of personnel and military equipment, as well as all marches for occupying the launching positions of anti-aircraft missile systems, took place only at night. In the daytime, the troops were in the so-called "settlers", strictly observing the disguise. However, despite the measures taken, within a few days in the Western press appeared information about the "Soviet presence in Egypt." The exact coordinates of the new positions of the air defense system were even announced. Israeli radio immediately began broadcasting in Russian "especially for Soviet soldiers." Each member of the Soviet military contingent, each soldier, was familiarized with his actions upon arrival, and therefore, upon unloading in Alexandria, everything happened in an organized manner, in working mode - columns were formed and those responsible were appointed, and the issue of protecting the columns march.

        Russian Islamic Committee: Putin is trying to fix Lavrov’s mistake

        The chairman of the Islamic Committee of Russia, Heydar Jemal, called Vladimir Putin’s appeal to Barack Obama to refrain from attacking Syria in an attempt to compensate for the failure of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
        In an interview that Geidar Dzhemal gave to the Russian News Service, he said that Sergei Lavrov had no right to declare that Russia would not fight for Syria.
        "This is an attempt to cover up the grave diplomatic miscalculation of Lavrov, who publicly declared that Russia would not fight for Syria. It was a defeatist statement that opened up strategy maps and gave the green light to the aggressor," Jemal told the RSN website.
        The chairman of the Russian Islamic Committee called the statement of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation "a failure."
        We will remind, earlier Vladimir Putin characterized the reports on the use of chemical weapons by Damascus "utter nonsense." http://3mv.ru/publ/islamskij_komitet_rossii_putin_pytaetsja_ispravit_oshibku_lav

        Then why is this: The Syrian security forces detained 24 agents in Damascus and its environs who were spying for foreign intelligence services.

        The detainees carried advanced communications, video cameras, and maps of residential areas and military facilities. According to the data received, most of those arrested are foreigners, some of them are citizens of neighboring states with Syria, as well as 2 Europeans.

        During their investigations, these spies revealed dangerous information about the actions of neighboring countries and their special forces, which includes citizens of various states, as well as information about the operational rooms created by these countries to study events in Syria.

        The head of the Iranian army, Hassan Firuzabadi, said that Israel would be attacked in case of military intervention in Syria.
        "If Syria comes under attack, the Zionists will be attacked," Fars reported.
        A delegation of Iranian deputies went on Saturday to Syria and Lebanon to study the situation and “condemn the use of chemical weapons by terrorist groups,” parliamentary officials said.
        Three members of the delegation led by chairman of the parliamentary committee on national security and foreign policy Alaeddin Borujerdi are expected to meet with Syrian President Bashar Assad in Damascus, one official said.
        Their visit will take place against the backdrop of yesterday's speech by Secretary of State John Kerry with a government report on the use of chemical weapons, which is accused of Assad. President Barack Obama said Friday that the US is considering "limited and narrowly targeted" action against Syria, insisting that the world must act to punish Assad for his brutality.

        You can send it if you can of course, but I would not advise - you hardly need a third world, although who knows you. hi Regarding my steps, he has already written more than once, more active actions - both on the part of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and on the part of the authorities, and it is clear that they will not stop the supply of arms at the most acute moment of the conflict.
        Here is one of the suggestions previously commented on: You just need to intervene. The Syrian leadership has previously turned to the BRICS countries with a request to send troops into Syria. If you bring in troops there, pull up the fleet - neither Israel, nor the United States, nor the boy "six" Cameron, let alone a "full of holes" oland, I am silent about the Turks - they will not bomb Syria unambiguously, there will be provocations, but they will not "shoot" at Syria will be. But, I repeat, this requires political courage, and in general you need to have "eggs", it is not against Georgia to speak out.

              Russia can help Syria control airspace

              The Russian group of the Navy near the coast of Syria monitors airspace in any scenario and regardless of the environment.
              At the same time, the Russian military can also transmit information received during monitoring to the Syrian air defense crews. This will ensure the most timely reaction of the Syrian air defense to any attempts at military aggression by the United States and its allies both in airspace and at sea.
              Recall that, according to information from various sources, Russia sent to the shores of Syria a large anti-submarine ship (presumably "Kerch") and a missile cruiser (presumably Varyag), as well as support ships.
              At the same time, information flashed in the media that Russian submarines were also on duty in the area.
              According to The Los Angeles Times, Russian ships are already in the Mediterranean Sea and will arrive at the shores of Syria as soon as possible.
              If Russian ships transmit information about airspace monitoring to Syria, this fact will significantly weaken the position of the United States due to the readiness of the Syrian air defense system and force the fleet command to report more "upward" about what exactly is happening in the area where the Russians are.
              Washington understands this very well, therefore, a number of military experts have already expressed the view that sending Russian ships has just become the trump card that will most likely put an end to NATO’s air strike.
              American military experts, and the AUG commanding staff, are well aware that the days of the weak Russian fleet are over. They are also well aware that the radar of Russian ships is in no way inferior, for example, to the well-known SPY systems on ships of the US Navy.
              Along with this, other experts already argue that the United States has come to terms with the idea that Russian ships will transmit information about the sky to Syria's air defense, and that is why the Harry Truman and Nimitz aircraft carrier strike groups (AUG) with all their combat power remained in the Persian Gulf.
              It should also be noted that during the operation to force Georgia to peace in August 2008, the United States also assisted Georgian air defense by monitoring the skies of Russia and Georgia, and also blocked the radio communications of the Russian military in the conflict zone. http://3mv.ru/publ/rossija_mozhet_pomoch_sirii_kontrolirovat_vozdushnoe_prostran

I’ll answer right away, it makes no sense, since the airfields will be destroyed in the first place (one "tablet" is enough for this), but where can we get perfectly trained pilots for our Migi? Air defense will knock down some% of the CD, but the rest will still break through and the prestige of our fighters, which cannot even take off, will suffer enormous damage. In this whole war, if there is one, the Syrians will only have to die for their country and try to inflict as much damage as possible on the mattress toppers.

    Russia could elementarily at the bases of the SCO, BRICS, CSTO or convene the UN General Assembly and speak about the situation in the world with condemnation of aggressors and concern for world peace. So did the USSR. And the countries that support their opinion adopted any resolution.

    No, of course, Putin can be silent and work without fuss. But on the other hand the odds are 50 / 50. After all, there will be those who say that the West retreated because of itself, because of the disagreement of their population, economy ... This is all not obvious and does not lead to any gains for Russia. Moreover, any bomb will erase the entire conspiracy theological model in the dust ...

    Can we imagine that Russia intentionally does not convene allies on this issue? Of course not...

    Therefore, I say - silence is not enough. Silence is a sign of agreement - in all cultures and in psychology. Politics and silence are not compatible things.

    Is there a bidding price for every fallen missile in Syria? We cannot know about this.

    Unfortunately, the United States is only moving towards an attack on Syria. The release of "evidence" suggests that the States have crossed the drawn red line themselves and have no way back. They need at least minimal international cooperation to give the appearance that this is a decision of the "world community". At the same time, a couple of billion people are not included in this community by definition. There can hardly be any doubt that England and France will support them anyway. The strike is obviously planned without invading troops - the task is simple: to reverse the balance of forces inside Syria in favor of the "rebels". A very significant moment will come when the tomahawks will fly, i.e. how the Syrian air defense will work (Russia, of course, will help with target designation) If the air defense turns out to be full of holes, then aviation (including Israel) will enter into aggression.
    It is striking with what maniacal persistence the United States is destroying the centers of ancient culture and the gene pool of the planet - just as the strategy of liquidating the "extra" four billion of the world's population is being implemented. But there will still be a boomerang. It cannot but be. The United States will not last until its XNUMXth anniversary.

    My personal opinion is to rob Syria just like Libya, and before that the others, the staff did not succeed. There will be no invasion. Even if they do decide to bomb, it will be just ... well, not an act of despair, but something like "here, we promised, we are not throwing words into the wind, and so it will be with everyone", etc. A good mine with a very bad game. A demonstrative indication to the "world community" of the real weight of its opinion for the states, the use of planned ammunition with noise and clatter (the expiration date has come to an end, new ones have already been ordered), and simply to weaken your opponent in the region is a little, but better than nothing, but then, maybe Assad will personally fall under the hatchet, then in general everything is in chocolate.
    The question is different. It did not work to rob Syria, but somehow it is necessary to live. Will Lockheed sell to China? Or the 6 fleet as a whole to India? Or again try to rob someone? But who?
    And I would advise the drummer at the summit in St. Petersburg to make a speech on the central channels in the style of "forgive me, I didn’t want to, this is all the CIA and military-industrial corporations, they forced me, but I’m good." And ask for political asylum in Russia.

    As always, the fakes on the media flew (I hope) a close source, an unknown source, a native source of bl ...

    Media: Russia has postponed the delivery of military equipment to Syria

    According to the Kommersant newspaper on Saturday, a source close to Rosoboronexport told about changes in the schedule of deliveries of MiG-29M / M2 aircraft to Damascus, who expressed the hope that regardless of the events taking place in Syria, the contract will be fully implemented.
    The newspaper clarifies that only nine fighters are planned to be delivered to the customer in 2016, and the remaining three - in 2017. The main reason for adjusting the delivery dates was "financial difficulties that the customer is experiencing."
    “After receipt of three tranches of 10% each from the moment the contract was entered into the MiG Corporation’s account, payments ceased,” the newspaper writes. According to Kommersant, representatives of the Syrian military delegation tried to find a solution to this problem, who arrived in Moscow at the end of May for negotiations that did not lead to success.
    “A similar delay can happen with the Russian-Syrian contract of 2011 - for the supply of 36 Yak-130 combat training aircraft,” the newspaper said. Kommersant adds that officially, no Syrian contracts have been commented on at Rosoboronexport.

    business as usual
    Moscow, August 31.
    Russia has delayed the supply of arms to Syria, the first MiG-29M / M2 fighters will not be able to enter the Arab country in 2013, as planned, but only in 2016, Kommersant writes.
    According to the publication, the main reason for the change in the delivery time was the "accumulated financial difficulties" faced by the Syrian authorities.
    Under a contract concluded in 2007, the Russian Federation is to supply 12 MiG-29M / M2 fighters to Syria. Deliveries have already been delayed due to France's refusal to transfer navigation system technology for cars. Later, a military conflict in the country caused a pause.

    At the same time, the publication’s sources state that the situation with the supply of S-300PMU2 air defense systems to Syria is still in limbo.

    The 2010 agreement provided for the delivery of six anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) by the second quarter of 2014. But its implementation did not begin, according to a source close to the Russian system of military-technical cooperation, because of the freezing of the contract caused by Moscow’s unwillingness to aggravate relations with the US and Israel ......... bewilderment

    You forgot to give a link :)
    And the supply was suspended due to financial difficulties in Syria.
    The main reason for the change in the delivery time, according to Kommersant's sources, was the "accumulated financial difficulties" faced by the Syrian authorities.

    And where you have dots -
    and subsequently, the absence of advance payments for air defense systems.

    Prisoner in 2010 The contract provided for the delivery of six anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) by the second quarter of 2014. However, its practical implementation has not yet begun: the reasons, according to a source close to the Russian military-technical cooperation system, were initially contract freezes caused by Moscow’s reluctance to aggravate relations with the United States and Israel, and subsequently, the absence of advance payments for air defense systems.

    And more interesting (I hope for you :)) information about the chemical attack in Syria.
    EXCLUSIVE: Syrians In Ghouta Claim Saudi-Supplied Rebels Behind Chemical Attack. Rebels and local residents in Ghouta accuse Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan of providing chemical weapons to an al-Qaida linked rebel group.
    By Dale Gavlak and Yahya Ababneh | August 29, 2013

    The text is interesting, juicy, but large and bulky, to translate laziness, so read the original or Google to help ...

    The main point, and the point is that the residents of the Syrian Ghouta and the "democratic" stationed near it, who were affected by the gas, whatever that means, the "rebels" in an interview with a Western correspondent curse the Saudis and Prince Bandar personally for the recent deliveries of chemical weapons to thugs from al-Qaeda operating in the area. And even though different opinions are expressed about this prince and his role in the events, the fact is the fact: living people under the camera are accused of provocation of the House of Saud.

    One can add to this only that the author of the material, Dale Gavlak, under no circumstances can be considered "pro-Assad propaganda". She is a reputable journalist, with experience and authority, is published in the most respectable Western publications, and receives a salary even in The Associated Press, where she is appreciated as one of the leading experts on the Middle East. There is no reason to doubt her words.

    I don’t think that now, when the "only correct version" was announced by Mr. Kerry himself, this can at least affect something. Wherever he sucked her. But to take into account and remember well, in my opinion, it is necessary. Because someday a lot of interesting things are to be heard about oneself and Russia, and when that happens, Mrs. Galvak's report will be small, by argument.

    "Now government troops are advancing. Therefore, I am convinced that this is nothing more than provocation those who want to involve other countries in the Syrian conflict, and who want to gain support from powerful participants in international activities, primarily the United States, "Putin explained.

    It seems to me that the United States has a problem with a strike on Syria, not only diplomatic, but also political (internal politics). The casualties among the soldiers will lead to protests. The launch of tomogavki, with limited success - to the questions "why the money was spent". After revelations with surveillance and general fin. it’s difficult to answer such questions.

    Opinions with which I do not agree in everything, but interesting and, in my opinion, worthy of attention
    1
    "US will bomb Syria"
    Intra-Western performances, such as the "anti-war vote of the British parliament" or the refusal of NATO countries to participate in the bombing of Syria, or the hesitation of France (either yes or no), none of this matters. These are all little things that can be explained by purely tactical considerations. Say, Britain is probably in this way trying to throw off the role of the main American mongrel on France and Turkey. London is once again trying to do a dirty business with someone else's hands, because even in the civilized world, the world of white gentlemen, there are those who are whiter and who are blacker. One way or another, but all these internal games do not take an inch away from the implementation of the strategic plan. Let us recall the 30s of the last century, how the West fostered and financed the same Hitler with one hand, and with the other allegedly fought against him, at the same time giving him the fatty chunks of Europe. However, all this worked for one single goal - to destroy Russia.
    The current hesitation, among other things, is largely intended to create the illusion of democracy and pluralism. Against the background of previous operations, be it Serbia, Iraq or Libya, when all Western countries at the right time took under their auspices and acted in the best traditions of the damned totalitarianism, today's voluntarism of individual Euro-Atlantic players significantly improves the image of the "Empire of Good" and allows us to talk about the West again as shine of democracy. However, it seems to me rash to pass it off as a real split within the West or Washington's weakness. It should be understood that the West is not led by Merkeli-Cameron-Obama, and therefore it makes no sense to seriously react to their speeches and statements, public behavior and even decisions, if they are not final. The final decisions are not made by them and according to the logic of people whom we do not see and whom we do not know, and therefore their true intention is hidden from us and can be understood only by seeing the whole situation, and not in fragments. In this sense, the only thing that is important from what Western leaders have said over the past XNUMX hours is Obama's words that fundamental American interests are affected in Syria. By the very wording, one can feel that these are not so much Obama's words as the people standing behind him and holding control levers in their hands. Based on these words, one can understand that Syria will definitely be bombed.
    If, God forbid, they still do not start bombing, then not because of the favor of the United States and not because of a split within the West, but thanks to some incredible backstage step by Russia.

    "USA will not bomb Syria"
    I could be wrong, but I think that both Syria as a whole and Bashar al-Assad in particular will be useful to the "backstage" in the near future, safe and sound; but because at the moment - the game is not worth the candle and no one will bomb anyone.
    The only exception will be if Russia enters the war (this would be an ideal gift for the West), but she does not enter the war.
    Just for that, these “maneuvers”, “chemical attacks” and other tinsel were needed to draw Russia in. It didn’t work out ...
    Note that the activity of the West began to decline sharply precisely after the press conference of Lavrov, who said one key phrase: "There will be no civilization war."
    This is not just a loud word, it is an indication that our state understands the idea of ​​the Western bosses and sends them to the ass along with capitalism
    The US does not need an open war with Syria, if Russia is not involved in this conflict
    Russia understands all this very well, and only because of this, the bombing has not yet begun and is unlikely to begin at all.
    In the long term, "Behind the Scenes" needs a powerful, but not friendly force in the Middle East. A kind of "Union of Muslim States" with a system of government - like North Korea: with the "Iron Curtain" and all the other attributes of the so-called "totalitarianism". Among other things, with the help of Muslims, Israel will be dismantled, which is now like a thorn in the well ... at this "backstage"
    Syria, pumped up by Russian weapons, will become one of the centers of the new "Union". Therefore, the threat of bombing is a reason to arm the future monster at someone else's expense ...
    Such a “state” would have to live the triple shortened life cycle of the USSR, which would extend the agony of capitalism by twenty to thirty years.
    Therefore, for the United States there is no big difference - Assad can stand it now or not. So, as the USSR once resisted in World War II.
    Who ultimately won in 1991? The one who launched the exact same process in 1917
    There will be something similar, but much more accelerated
    Although - I can be very cool wrong.

      You are right that even at seemingly "small" events, it is useful to "look from afar" in order to understand
      - at what stage is someone playing a multi-way game against the whole world,
      - what role the "grandmasters of intrigue" have prepared for Russia and the post-USSR,
      - and how can we avoid the role of "slaughtering sheep"
      - and having understood all these "friendly business plans", how to make sure that Russia at the head of the post-USSR OVERWEARS all enemies and all our Soviet peoples live in peace and without hostility among themselves!

    Why not the use of "OV" in the countries of "Europe and America"?
    "Pearl Harbor" a symbol of defeat - the aggressors attacked and lost, receiving more and Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

      Guys, they are blatantly threatening aggression. And threats Americans fulfill theirs. Assad may simply lose all aviation right at the airfields. She will die just like that. And here there is a chance to win at least the battle.
      Americans are accustomed to beating like a gopnik so that they will not be answered. And here is the answer before the blow. Maybe they'll think about it again. I see bombed Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq... do you think this is better? Although yes, after this formally Assad will be considered an aggressor, but in reality everyone knows what’s what. This way he can buy time - more people will be able to move to safe places from the cities.
      And with Pearl Harbor, yes, I gave an unsuccessful example - there was aggression in its purest form.

    While Congress meets, while it discusses, while it makes a decision... Meanwhile, the chemistry commission will announce that nothing really has been found out, “the possibility that chemical weapons were used by government troops is not excluded” (“one against a thousand” - it will add each member of the commission to himself), approximately this wording will be. The case is postponed for at least a week, and most likely two. And then Congress will decide that there’s no need for this, because everyone will cool down, a supermarket will be robbed in Manhattan, another b...l will get divorced or married in Hollywood, a couple more TOMATOES will get married in Paris, everyone will breathe a sigh of relief and it’s up to them to decide nothing is needed anymore. Maybe Assad will make some kind of statement, saying, friends, thank you for your support in difficult times, we will henceforth fight terrorism together, we will build democracy, there will be new elections soon... In short, everyone is happy.

    I may have gotten a little carried away about the victory. But there is definitely such a small victory.

    But until recently, the attitude towards Russia in Syria was very warm - in Soviet times, many Syrians graduated from Russian universities. But the blatant failures of Russian foreign policy, when Moscow openly opposed itself to the population of Syria, siding with Assad (at least that’s how it looks in the eyes of ordinary Syrians), have led to the fact that the people of Syria now consider us enemies. The vast majority of Syrians are Sunnis, and Russia protects the Alawite (Shiite) minority, the political elite of the authoritarian regime.

    If I were the Syrians, I would rely more on my other ally - Iran. Those have higher enthusiasm and the military is more reckless and has much more interests to get involved in than ours.
    If we put aside the fact that “Syria is the last frontier” (I remember recently the last frontier was Mr. Gaddafi), and they are our ally (inherited from the USSR), then especially tear and throw for the “family country” of Comrade Assad, The Kremlin has almost no justification, other than purely geopolitical ones. Moreover, as early examples have shown, sometimes in such cases of escalation of NATO military activity, it is better to simply take tickets in the front row (as in Iraq or Afghanistan) and wait for them to understand what they have gotten themselves into. It turns out that for geopolitics it is sometimes better to just stand aside.
    Syria has never helped the USSR in any way, the country (through the efforts of the Assads) is simply poor. Not long ago we forgave them a debt of 10 billion dollars. So that they make more debts.
    Therefore, politically, yes, we should help Damascus, support it and blame the Americans. Let them continue to waste their energy, while enriching the Russian treasury with money from the sale of oil, which after such adventures simply jumps in price.

      There are no crazy military men. A military man is obliged to carry out an order. As for Iran, I’ll say yes. you are right. today in Syria the fate of Iran is being decided. Syria and Hezbollah (in fact, Iran’s expeditionary force in Lebanon) are Iran’s only allies in the Middle East. the end of Assad means that Iran is losing leverage in the region. but, there are certain facts. when Israel In 2006, he attacked Hezbollah, but we didn’t notice any missile attacks on Israel. But we heard a lot of political statements. Iran is now having a hard time economically. Sanctions have brought the Iranian economy into a deplorable state. Even financial assistance to Syria is carried out with difficulty. And what to expect in the event of an attack in Syria, Iran will open a second front. I doubt it 99%.

                        Iraq is a state with a police force, an army, and foreign and domestic policies. Moreover, it is completely dependent on the United States. Regardless of whether there is a religious war on its streets or not.

                The USSR supplied weapons by sea. It’s just that it’s difficult to do this during bombing, and neither Vietnam, nor Syria, nor Angola were bombed in those days, or the attacks were carried out sporadically.

                Vietnam sporadically? The ports of Vietnam were constantly bombed and mined, periodically they promised not to bomb Haiphong, but they kept breaking the promise. Our transport ships were periodically demonstratively fired upon and “accidentally” bombed. A combat zone was declared, a blockade was established, and searches were possible.
                Syria wasn't bombed? Yes, because during the Vietnam War, our Navy in the combat area was represented by several submarines and “scientific” vessels. And near Syria there was already the 5th squadron, which could cover the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea with the wreckage of the 6th fleet. And Syria was still bombed, the Israelis did not stand on ceremony and our warships suffered. But ours, however, tried not to remain in debt.
                And the South Africans fought with Angola; they were not strong enough against our Navy. Nevertheless, sabotage was carried out regularly.
                So the main thing is not to worry, just like the crews of unarmed Soviet transports in Vietnam. Moreover, even if not the fifth squadron, there is some grouping of warships off the coast of Syria.

                  Exactly, sporadically. It is known that regular bombings took place from February 1965 to October 1968 and from April 1972 to January 1973, and even then with great reservations, since the USSR constantly opposed attacks on the cities of North Vietnam, as well as the world community in general, demanded clearly defined “ military zones." Therefore, our civilian ships transported huge volumes of aid, and then the Americans tried to prevent it from reaching the South. The “tension” of attacks on our transport workers is best told by statistics. How many Soviet ships were sunk there by American vultures? How many sailors died? The same applies to Syria - what ships and vessels were sunk if they attacked and interfered like that.
                  There is nothing to say about the current period - one civilian ship with weapons has already been detained - as a result, they had to drag the gifts with landing punts. Therefore, not to mention the fact that I generally doubt such a need, the possibilities now are an order of magnitude smaller than in the Soviet Union. Certainly no one in Moscow will start a full-scale war (with a transition to a nuclear one - otherwise there is very little chance of resisting the NATO Navy) because of Syria, which is far away and generally of little interest to anyone in Moscow.

                    Is it a matter of quantity? There were such cases.
                    02.06.1967/67/1 in the port of Kamfa the Turkestan was fired upon - 6 hits, XNUMX sailor was killed, XNUMX were wounded.
                    29.06.67/XNUMX/XNUMX, Haiphong, Soviet transport "Mikhail Frunze" was damaged by an aerial bomb. In addition to the Soviet ship, other ships were also damaged.
                    6 civilian sailors were posthumously awarded orders and medals.
                    In Syria, ours resolutely suppressed attempts to put pressure on our ships. Two Israeli planes were shot down in Latakia. Naturally, let's get down to business.
                    Do you think that now the Americans will directly sink our ships? Our civilian ship is detained? And under whose flag did he fly?
                    Does it make sense for Americans to get involved in a nuclear war with us? Same thing.
                    Is Syria interesting to few people in Moscow? Do you mean yourself? laughing Do you think the opinion of Muscovites, like other Russian citizens, is of concern to the Russian leadership? Only to that extent will it arouse the sympathy of the electorate.
                    Any person who knows history understands that if you don’t stop the aggressor in Syria, you will have to deal with him at home. Sooner or later.

                      I wrote “EPISODICALY”. ) Here are TWO (maybe there were even three) episodes during the entire long campaign of the Vietnam War, when the Americans inflicted significant damage (with two sailors of the civilian fleet officially killed in the entire history of deliveries, even 6) to Soviet ships. This is with the assertion that, supposedly, Soviet sailors overcame bombings and mines. This was the opposition...

                      Do you think that now the Americans will directly sink our ships?

                      I fully admit that the Americans (and why only them) can detain our civilians regardless of the flag they were flying under. And it will be unpleasant if the equipment is confiscated. Let's say the Dutch.
                      At the same time, what kind of nuclear war are you talking about? This is quite an ordinary event. We will stomp our feet, quarrel, give notes, and we will be faced with the choice of sending, like earlier landing ships, to carry something under the protection of the fleet, or spit and forget. And the military fleet in the conflict area is already a serious request for escalation, and our forces are a priori smaller and weaker than NATO’s. Is it necessary for the sake of Syria? Lavrov has already answered, as it were, that we will not fight for Assad’s sake. And he is absolutely (for once) right. This is where I started my first post.

                      Any person who knows history understands that if you don’t stop the aggressor in Syria, you will have to deal with him at home. Sooner or later.

                      The aggressor is against us or against Syria? We have a bad habit of considering all processes in the world to be directly related to Russia. We have nuclear weapons and that is the only reason why we can even stand on our heads indefinitely. And the collapse of another long-term eastern power is unlikely to affect our position. On the contrary, it is more likely to strengthen; we just need to use the right rhetoric and wring our diplomatic hands in time.

                        However, during the Vietnam War, the Americans periodically inspected our ships. But during the Arab-Israeli wars, no one inspected it. For our FMF was vigilant. Particularly valuable transports were generally escorted. So our warships in the eastern Mediterranean are needed now.

                        That's how they walk now. True, just in case, the landing “punts”, but they go. When the war starts, they won’t go.

                        Particularly valuable transports were generally escorted. So our warships in the eastern Mediterranean are needed now.

                        I’ll start repeating myself - no one “back then” put much pressure on our ships for obvious reasons. He didn’t shoot (even when there was an opportunity, and the Navy was nowhere near), and he didn’t check the cargo. The world was on the brink of nuclear war and no one wanted to particularly strain relations.
                        Now the situation is completely different and we are no longer the same and our motivations have generally changed. No one will organize an Armageddon for some vague purpose.
                        And this is good.

                        Our naive “overseas friend” (in quotes because you may be Russian, but your soul is clearly overseas), look at the political map of Eurasia. Color green Afghanistan, Iraq, North Africa, Syria, then Iran, Azerbaijan, Central Asia.

                        Let's do without our favorite forum activity - hanging labels and issuing nicknames, unless of course you are a schoolboy.
                        If you are talking about the fact that Islam is advancing and we must suppress it exclusively in Syria, then I am surprised at our good relations with Iran, which has always been distinguished by its sponsorship of radical Islamism, the assistance of all sorts of “Hezbollons” and “Hamas”, from which it is just a stone’s throw to “ Muslim brothers”... The last one to get punched in the teeth from us was Orthodox Georgia.

                        Somehow, the collapse of Gaddafi brought us nothing but complete material and moral losses, no matter how much we wringed our hands. And the collapse of Saddam too. We must finally draw real conclusions, not liberal delusional ones.

                        Well, you need to choose your friends correctly, and demand money in advance, and not on the hundredth loan, and in such a way that after our “friends” roll their eyes and generally “don’t understand what kind of money this is” (as they did in Damascus at one time )? By the way, in Libya, our position is gradually being restored. The only major loss today is the contract for the Yak-130, and Gaddafi did not conclude the largest military contracts with us. Russian Railways and oil workers are already working there, the Libyans asked for help in training the military specialists. Our weapons began to be supplied to Iraq, etc.

Otherwise, why would the Americans hesitate? Then our RK and BOD will come up, then in general the probability of a nuclear war will increase. The main thing for us is to be in time before September 9, or better yet, before 8. So that Congress takes it into account. Well, many will want to wait for the report of UN experts. And there they will completely calm down. Indeed, no one needs an apocalypse because of Syria. The main thing is to show that we are determined to make it happen.

                        Nobody pressed then, that means. And why? Because under escort. Try firing at a civilian ship while it is being escorted by a military ship. The Israelis then lost several aircraft.

                        Well, you tried to turn the topic of Islam around. However, Iran and its anti-Israeli terrorists are not at all the same as Libya and Al-Qaeda. The question is who sets the fire and for what purpose? The goals of Iran do not concern us much yet, but those who are trying to build a new caliphate with the help of mercenaries and fanatics - these goals can directly affect us. Georgia didn’t get hit in the teeth for being Orthodox. And because she barked from behind the United States’ back.

                        Lavrov has already said “We will not fight for Syria.” On the one hand, the Americans are reluctant to arrange it, but they won’t run away with their tail between their legs.

                        Indeed, no one needs an apocalypse because of Syria. The main thing is to show that we are determined to make it happen.

                        What if they are not afraid? Then we are a “North Korean loser.”

                        Well, you tried to turn the topic of Islam around. However, Iran and its anti-Israeli terrorists are not at all the same as Libya and Al-Qaeda.

                        Yes, of course - there are good, right terrorists and evil, wrong ones. Russia loves the former, but not the latter. I wonder what is the conversion time from a good terrorist to a bad one? Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE are among the most stable countries in the world. They don’t attack anyone themselves (by the way, “good” Iraq, Iran, Libya themselves tortured their own people and generally barked like hell), they don’t blow up anything themselves. Talk about a great caliphate, about a great Islam, but actions are on the side of the infidels. We feel this and are trying to earn extra money from this ourselves - we were ready to supply weapons to the Saudis, but the UAE has and continues to supply them. Don’t find it strange, on the one hand we seem to be against it to the point of gnashing teeth, but on the other hand we are trying to make friends.
                        And the fact that Iran is not dangerous for us now is how everything changes. And unlike others, he is our southern neighbor.

                        I mentioned Georgia only based on your “religious” background of opposition to the great evil. Of course, I agree, we gave in to Georgia so that they would not forget who is boss in the region. I'm not delighted with such actions, but at least they are logical.

                        Nobody says that finding real allies (and not Damascus with Cuba and Iran) is easy. Of course, much of what we have left is the Soviet political legacy, when, for objective and subjective reasons, the whole of Eastern Europe is ratting on us. We are not even able to establish relations with Belarus, let alone Ukraine.

                        And why, by the way, did the United States help Egypt so much? For nothing, as one Israeli comrade recently argued in a neighboring article.

                        And why do they tear their shirts and go there to fight?

      And what geopolitical gain will Russia have if Assad remains in power? Just wondering. We work for a distant bright future and give money to Damascus.

        The United States is looking for gains by unleashing a new large-scale war.
        Russia defends justice.
        And this is not just about the power of Bashar Al-Assad. Although, as Heine said, when one honest person is hit, all honest persons experience pain. The stakes are much higher. International law is at stake. The fate of the world is at stake. Will the world live according to some laws or will everything finally turn into the solid iron heel of the United States?

          All this “justice” and “honest” faces is a beautiful cover for geopolitics. It contains Assad, as I already said, with all his pros and cons, rather a legacy with which, out of habit, we have some kind of obligation.
          And we have already mastered international law in Georgia in one place. When it was profitable.

            In Georgia everything was fair. They warned that if he climbed, he would get ripped off.

                  You will already decide that for you international law is the laws that we comply with and demand their implementation. Or such a variable that we perform or not depending on whether we were offended, whether it is beneficial to us, etc.

    Hmm, it is sad that the Russian Federation will not take real steps to prevent war.

    And what do you think the real steps should be?


    For example, to airlift four or five Iskander aircraft to Syria. One to target Turkey, one to Israel, one to Jordan, one to SA. I am sure that after that all the desire to fight the amers and their mongrels will disappear)


    Good afternoon friends! About 5 Iskanders this is of course strong! what do you want to do with their help? And the Americans have not attacked yet and are not supplying weapons - because not everything is so simple! The big game is on! but simply taking and bringing them weapons is not a far-sighted move < which will give an extra trump card for the press and inflation at the international level! Look how the world community is now against the amers! Do you think the Americans are that stupid to get involved in this state of affairs? I don't think so!

    This news angered me. Of course, I do not know what the rulers of Russia are washing. It is regrettable if the money issue has become so important for Russia. Especially voicing these problems at this point. In my opinion, they could have waited with statements about "pauses and suspensions". In the end, Russia has forgiven Syria about 12-13 billion dollars for forgiving another couple of billions. After all, we are beating in the chest that Syria is our last frontier.


    Stop moaning. We do not know and do not see the whole “picture” of events.
    And they are developing rapidly. Intelligence and counterintelligence work is generally inaccessible, and rightly so.
    Dez needs to be thrown in correctly. Let them think that we are stuck on payment, that we are greedy...
    We will find out more details perhaps in ten years, if we find out at all.

    Yes, faith in miracles and in Russia is very good. It's nice when they believe. Only now, having more than half a century behind me and numerous examples of how believers then crap in response. A joke I recently heard is constantly spinning in my brain - A dad and a boy are walking in the park, and they see Bobby climbing on a bug and fucking. A boy comes to his dad with a question. Dad replies that the dog’s legs hurt and the second one is taking her. And then the boy, after thinking, asks a question - Dad, why do they do this to the good...??
