"Charles de Gaulle" goes to war again

127
The French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle again sent to the shores of the Middle East to participate in the fight against terrorism. Official Paris a few weeks ago decided to strengthen aviation a group operating in the region with several carrier-based carrier-based aircraft. In addition, in the context of recent events, sending an aircraft carrier to the shores of Syria will be a response to recent terrorist attacks in Paris. It is alleged that Charles de Gaulle will be able to significantly increase the shock potential of the French group in the region.

On November 5, a meeting was held in the Elysée Palace with the participation of French President Francois Hollande, the heads of the military department and other structures. During this event, the military and political leadership of France decided to strengthen the air force in the Middle East by sending the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle with a group of attack and other aircraft on board. In his speech on the results of the meeting, the French president stated that sending an aircraft carrier would increase the effectiveness of combat work, and also simplify the process of coordination with the allies in the coalition.

Together with the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle, several other ships were to go to the eastern regions of the Mediterranean, the task of which would be to ensure the combat work of the entire formation and to resolve some other issues. In this case, the core of the ship group was to become exactly the aircraft carrier, whose carrier-based aviation would become the main instrument for the destruction of the positions of terrorists.

It should be noted that in early November, the French leadership only decided to strengthen its grouping, but did not specify the time frame for sending the naval connection. The exact date of the release of the aircraft carrier at sea became known only on November 16. Speaking in parliament on this day, F. Hollande said that Charles de Gaulle and other ships would leave the port of registry 19 in November. In a few days, the carrier will overcome the path from Toulon to the shores of Syria, where he will begin to perform combat missions.

In his speech, the French president also called the tasks of carrier-based aviation. With its help, it is planned to triple the shock potential of the French group in the Middle East. Now, according to Hollande, this is not about deterring terrorists, but about their total annihilation. France intends to increase efforts to combat terrorists. The main enemy of Paris in Syria is the terrorist organization Islamic State, which recently launched a series of terrorist attacks in France and was banned in several countries, including Russia.

In the absence of any serious problems, the French carrier strike group will arrive at the shores of Syria early next week and, apparently, will immediately engage in combat work. Currently, the region has a relatively small grouping of French aircraft of several types, and the arrival of the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle will significantly increase its quantitative and qualitative indicators.

It should be recalled that "Charles de Gaulle" has already participated in the fight against the organization "Islamic State". At the beginning of this year, the aircraft carrier ensured the operation of deck aircraft during Operation Shamal for several weeks. For about two months the ship was in the Persian Gulf, and its aviation group conducted reconnaissance flights and delivered strikes against enemy ground targets. At the beginning of the operation, it was noted that the use of an aircraft carrier made it possible to almost halve the time required for the aircraft to arrive at the target area, compared with aircraft based at the Al-Dhafra 104 airfield in the United Arab Emirates.

France joined the fight against the "Islamic State" in September last year. The operation was called "Shamal", in part of one of the Middle Eastern winds. On September 15, the first flight took place, during which two Dassault Rafale fighters conducted reconnaissance of the specified area in Iraqi territory. September 19 steam "Rafale" dealt the first blow to the objects of terrorists in Iraq. In the future, French aviation continued to carry out combat missions for reconnaissance and attack purposes. The combat work of fighter-bombers, based in the UAE, continues to this day.

As of the beginning of November, six Rafale fighter-bombers and the same number of Mirage 2000 aircraft of two modifications were involved in Operation Shamal. In addition, one Dassault Atlantique patrol aircraft, one Boeing E-3 long-range radar detection aircraft and one Boeing C-135FR air tanker are involved.

In mid-February of this year, the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle arrived in the Persian Gulf, whose aircraft soon began to attack targets in Iraqi territory. The first sorties were made on February 23, and the destruction of targets started two days later. Subsequently, the French carrier-based pilots continued to attack various objects belonging to terrorists. During the first voyage to the shores of Iraq, the strike force of Charles de Gaulle consisted of the 12 Rafale fighter and the 9 Super Étendard attack aircraft.

The combat work of the aircraft carrier and its aircraft continued until the end of April. During this time several hundred sorties were flown. At the same time, the average flight intensity of French aviation was relatively small. Even during the most active operations, Charles de Gaulle provided no more than 10-15 sorties a day. Nevertheless, even at such a pace of work, as well as through the help of airplanes from ground bases, deck aviation managed to solve the tasks set by the command.

At the end of April, the only French aircraft carrier and other ships of the strike formation left the Persian Gulf and began training combat missions in the Indian Ocean. In the future, before the crews of the ships were put some other tasks. As of early November, Charles de Gaulle was in the Mediterranean.

In accordance with the order of French President F. Hollande, the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle and several other ships must go to the shores of Syria to participate in the fight against the Islamic State. This will be the second trip of the ship to this region as part of Operation Shamal. What the results of the work of the French carrier-based aviation will be is not completely clear, but there is reason to believe that after the recent terrorist attacks in Paris, the commanders and pilots will not stand on ceremony with the enemy and will work with maximum efficiency.

In the sky of Syria, French carrier-based aviation will work together with aviation groups of some other states, including Russia. In addition, interaction between ship groups is planned. In connection with the imminent arrival of the French aircraft carrier 17 on the shores of Syria in November, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the commander of the Moscow guided missile cruiser, covering the Russian group from the sea, to establish direct contact with the French and work with them as allies.

In addition, V. Putin said that the Russian Minister of Defense and the Chief of General Staff had already received relevant instructions, and now it is planned to develop a plan for joint work at sea and in the air. Thus, it can be expected that the two countries will unite their efforts in the fight against terrorism and will jointly attack various targets, bringing the defeat of the “Islamic State” closer.

According to French press reports, currently on board the ship Charles de Gaulle are 18 fighter-bomber Dassault Rafale and 8 Dassault-Breguet Super Étendard attack aircraft - 26 planes capable of attacking ground targets. In addition, X-NUMX fighter jets Rafale and Mirage 12 are also located at the bases of the region, not counting other types of aviation technology. Thus, in the very near future, 2000 strike aircraft will be present as part of the French air force in the Middle East, which will undoubtedly increase the number of sorties and thereby increase the overall effectiveness of combat work.

It should be noted that the French aviation is not waiting for reinforcements and is already increasing the number of combat sorties. So, already on the last Sunday of November 15, 10 of French aircraft struck terrorists in the city of Rakka, which is a kind of their capital. French aviation dropped two dozen bombs on targets, as a result of which two large objects were destroyed. One of them was a complex with a command post, a training center for militants and an ammunition depot, the second was a training camp.

On November 19, the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle must leave the home port and go to the eastern Mediterranean, where he will again have to participate in the fight against terrorists. The appearance in the theater of military operations of a ship with 26 strike aircraft and other types of equipment can positively affect the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the combat work of the French aircraft, as well as bring victory over the terrorists. However, in order to make the first full-fledged conclusions about the work of the carrier-based aviation of France, one should wait until the start of the combat missions. Whether the Charles de Gaulle air group justifies its hopes is known in the very near future.

    They put out the fire with gasoline, stirred up a hornet’s nest - and now they don’t know what to do. A small PR war, colorful pictures of bombs and airplanes resulted in the death of 200 A-321 passengers. Tied to the ears. Day after day, bombs are thrown into the sand, reporting the destruction of thousands of terrorist headquarters. They report on great successes - in a month they singled out 350 square from terrorists. km (0,2% of the territory of Syria). For comparison, the area of ​​Moscow in front of the Moscow Ring Road is 880 square. km

    It is impossible to cope with ISIS using such methods. Yes and Does Russia need to fight ISIS in general ??

    Since the formation of ISIS (spring-summer of 2014), the number of terrorist attacks in Russia has DECREASED. More precisely, they were gone at all. For comparison, in winter 2013-14 years. in one Volgograd there were three powerful explosions, 50 dead. The fact is, before direct intervention, ISIS was not interested in Russia.

    With the advent of ISIS, most scumbags from the North. The Caucasus spilled over to its new homeland. The FSB did not take any measures, on the contrary, according to security officials, it facilitated the departure of those who wanted to. We do not need shahids. They want to build their Sharia paradise - let them build it in another place. What do we care. Get out with a filthy broom.

    In fact, ISIS poses no military threat to developed nations. To prevent terrorist attacks, it is enough to disperse the Arab quarters on the outskirts of Paris, and ISIS there is the tenth case. Muslim shahids and igilas exist independently of each other

    So why should the Russians fight ISIS? They raised a hornet's nest - now expect revenge from them in the form of various dirty tricks.

      Do you think that Russian planes have other reasons for being in Syria ...
      No, of course, the destruction of ISIS militants is also one of the main ones, but there is some "world gendarme" who has beguiled all the shores, believing that we do not have a combat-ready army ... and you are not entirely right with the militants .. they left to gain experience and impudence, and then they would come back .. so it's better to let them be crushed there ...

        The Americans, who essentially gave birth to ISIS, did it in Iraq, not everything turned out as they wanted ... But the Anglo-Saxons would not be Anglo-Saxons, so as not to substitute someone for themselves at the right time. It all started with statements that fighting ISIS was a common cause. The situation in Syria is not very simple, bombing alone cannot solve the problem, and the whole question is whether Assad's army will be able to recapture the country. If not, Russia will have to either get involved in a ground operation or leave. Syria is important to us, paramount, but why did they begin to stir only now, when the country was on the verge of collapse? Time was lost, it was necessary to help Assad much earlier. Why, then, did they obediently listen and fulfill all the crap of the West, even stopping the supply of equipment under already signed contracts? Now the States need to find fighters against ISIS, and we are in business, and after the death of our liner, Operation Retribution was announced, and strategic aviation is already delivering strikes. What will come of everything, the question. As Gorbachev used to say, "who is hu" will soon be seen, both in Syria and finally in Ukraine (which is even more important for us than Syria), or rather, the already hostile Dill, because of the lost time, the former Ukraine no longer exists. If everything turns out to be successful in Syria, well, indeed, a cunning and ingenious plan. I don't even want to think about failure ...

          Hi!! What kind of plan are we talking about? There is a war there and it spat on your plans. It's about the most commonplace about survival. They’ll throw the enemy away, then you can think about plans. In 1941, no one was thinking about plans for 43 years near Moscow. Plans will be made when the necessary situation at the front is created. It’s clear that it’s more than one month, it’s clear to the average citizen. By the way, every day all kinds of military planners in Syria constantly take part in battles on Syria. Yes, the VKS helps but no one hid that effect will be instant. He will be, but after some time. And in the war, giving predictions is an ungrateful and inappropriate thing. And what will affect us tomorrow was clear a long time ago The Wick set on fire by the White House Administration got us anyway a little later. Ukraine showed this very clearly how this is happening. There is one change of priority with the replacement of one lady who watched the mockery of Gaddafi and exclaimed WOW. Everything in the east went under its own power, the beholder was no longer interested in affairs there. The war will be difficult but there are already shifts Free Army of Syria her close-knit squad departed for Libya. There probably events will soon be barred in the headlines.

      And here I somehow did not understand! Either Russia began to intervene already in the 2013 year, or is it an indicator that if Russia had not intervened, there would have been plus or minus three terrorist attacks a year and the death toll did not exceed the 50 victims, which, in your opinion, is a trifle ?!

      The policy of the state includes playing with different figures to achieve some goal. For the Russian military campaign, ISIS was just a marker, only a designated target, but in reality, great efforts were invested in strikes against the "moderate" opposition. Which is perfectly reasonable, since it was they who squeezed Assad.
      The destruction of ISIS is not necessary for many for various reasons. ISIS is needed by countries opposing Iran - and this is almost all the countries of that region and half the world in addition. And Russia, too, is like a vacuum cleaner for radicals, a hotbed of instability with the influence of oil prices, Iran’s containment too, no friends, only temporary allies.
      Of course, they got in for a reason to show their need for Western countries, sanctions nevertheless. Some kind of result can and will be. So far, only one is obvious - they showed that the army is alive and something can. And, indeed, ran into an answer. And, something, ground-based successes look pale. Where, interestingly, the guardian corps of the Islamic revolution.

          Only mines remained from the KR at Kuznetsovo. Yes, and the air defense system on it is of short range. By the way, the Nimitz also has a Sea Sparrow SAM system.

          The worst thing is that the Yankees have their own AWACS cars. And at 1143.5 they are not and never will be. So it remains either to rely on the few coastal A-50 VKS, for which there are a bunch of other tasks, or to try to search for targets using fighter radar.

            ... By the way, the Nimitz also has a Sea Sparrow anti-aircraft missile system.

            Armament of the aircraft carrier "Nimitz": three anti-aircraft missile systems "Sea Sparrow" and four 20 mm anti-aircraft artillery systems "Volcano - Falanx". The onboard armament is designed to protect the ship, mainly from an air enemy that has broken through the long-range and middle air defense lines of an aircraft carrier strike group. Two three-pipe 324 mm torpedo tubes are used to combat torpedoes that follow the wake.

              "Boas" are doing the same here.

              The bottom line - in terms of airborne defense weapons, "Kuzya" and "Nimits" are similar. In terms of strike weapons ... it would be better if the designers exchanged the Granites for catapults and a more spacious hangar (for the same "air defense KPUG", a couple of extra fighter links and the ability to take off at any wind speed / direction is much more useful).
              However, who would have given them to do this then - and so they had to encrypt 1143.5 as "the second corps of project 1143.4" (ie "second" Baku ").

              I guess for an hour at most. It has 680 km of normal range, and 220 km of cruising speed, i.e. somewhere 3 hours in the air. Until the turn of the 200-250 it’s an hour there, then an hour back ... Then - we still don’t have any radio intelligence aircraft. But what about the Americans? They have Groler in air patrols with Hokai, and it is he who conducts reconnaissance in passive mode, and the AWACS is cut when something needs to be clarified. So they will copy Ka with its cut radar from a distant far away, and they will demolish it. You can, of course, hang him in the cover of Su-33, but it won’t be of much use - the Ka-31 is not a flying aviation control center, it does not know how to command the actions of the Su-33, so there isn’t much difference between the pair Su-33 und Ka-33 seems like it will not.
              Right now, however, they have gagged some tricky modification of the Ka-31 ... Maybe this will change something.

              3,5 km is a static ceiling of the car. I doubt that he will be able to hold out on it for 3 hours when flying at cruising speed.

    Sorry, I don’t know much about electronic warfare, but if we work together, what about the interference canopy over the Syrian coast. The presence of a NATO ship connection will affect the operations of the REB troops, because it is not convenient to jam allies. If anyone can, explain.

    In fact, we are from three dozen French aircraft in Syria neither cold nor hot.
    The performance of the ISIS coalition is also a topic for jokes.

    Another thing is important: the Dark One ordered the commander of the Moskva GRK to interact with the French as with allies.

    The French themselves, like the Americans, the Australians in their actions in Syria are illegitimate - this time. Covering our cruiser with a French aircraft carrier off the coast of Syria also makes no military sense - against whom will the air carrier’s air defense and anti-submarine defense be carried out? Well, maybe except as it should be, an aircraft carrier should always be under the guise of other ships. Okay. But the Frenchman has his own retinue - a Belgian frigate, a British destroyer (...)

    So the meaning of cooperation with the French is clearly not military, namely: to force NATO countries to integrate into the wake of our Middle East policy.

    By the way, the United States, as specialists in "attaching" to other people's victories, can attach its own aircraft carrier "Harry Truman" here too, like, we also participated. Yeah. And in 30 years they will tell
    in schools that only they defeated ISIS

    In fact, the aircraft carrier has a very mixed and scandalous biography.

    Useful for those who like to criticize our "Kuznetsov".

    So, on the first long voyage "Charles" set off immediately after launching. This trip was a visit to the US Navy base in Norfolk. And look at strangers, and show your own.
    De Gaulle did not make it to Norfolk. During the training maneuvers, the blade of one of the propellers fell off from the aircraft carrier. Naturally, the aircraft carrier "hurried" (because it could only move at a speed of 3 knots) to Toulon to investigate.
    In Toulon it turned out a curious thing - the accident happened due to poor-quality manufacturing of screws. The company that designed and manufactured them, Atlantic Industries, had to be tried. However, when they were about to file a lawsuit, it turned out that the company had disappeared somewhere along with money and documentation. Such are the enterprising shipbuilders.
    You understand that without documentation it was a long and overhead task to make propellers, therefore, as a temporary measure, they decided to attach a propeller from a decommissioned Clemenceau-class aircraft carrier to Charles. The measure was not entirely successful - when moving at full speed in the rear of the hull there was such a terrible vibration that it was impossible for the crew to be there.
    With grief, repairs were carried out in half, and in 2001, "De Gaulle" went to the Arabian Sea, to participate in Operation Enduring Freedom. During Operation Super Etendar, the air group made about 200 sorties and struck at the positions of the militants. Everything would be fine, but during this trip there was a reactor accident, and some of the crew members received strong doses of radiation. As a result, "Charles" went to the home port, Toulon, for repairs.
    The aircraft carrier stood in the dock for repair already in the 3 year, and only in the 2005 year did it take part in the exercises, after which it again retreated to the base, as the reactor was about to renew.
    De Gaulle left the dock in the sea only in 2008. After 3 months, he again failed - there was a breakdown of electronic equipment.
    We managed to get out of the dock after another repair only in 2010. They got out and came back a day after the start of the trip all the electronic equipment failed, as a result of which the Charles had to be dragged to Toulon almost by tugs.
    This time the repair lasted only 2 weeks, after which the ship again went to sea.
    In 2011, the aircraft carrier participated in securing the UN Security Council resolution numbered 1773, striking Libya. In total, aircraft from the air group made about 300 sorties.
    In 2013 "Charles" underwent scheduled repairs in Toulon. The renovation was completed in the same year.
    At the moment, the ship is striving at full steam to the coast of Syria.

        Not bad, who can argue. However, even good shipbuilders sometimes have bad ships. For example, excellent German shipbuilders made rather disgusting destroyers in WWII, and cruisers like "Hipper" can hardly be called a success of German shipbuilding. The light cruisers of Germany before WWII were re-lightened, because of which it was simply dangerous for them to go to some kind of stormy sea.
        The British have not once or twice created not very high-quality "coyabliks" - King George 5 is still difficult to call a success of British battleship building, about battle cruisers - generally keep quiet. And the first British "Washingtonians" are also clearly not the best in the lineup of the world "ten thousand tonnes".
        In general, "Charles de Gaulle" is an example of the fact that there is a hole in the old woman. Most likely - a victim of savings on the Navy, the designers were probably heavily squeezed in displacement

          The heavy legacy of Versailles. smile
          If in other countries the process of designing and building ships continued continuously (although there were also problems related to the budget and the Washington / London agreements), then the Germans were tied by hand by the Versailles restrictions. As a result, they had to jump over the "10 lost years", and even make ships within much tighter limits.
          So, when trying to cram all the customer's wishes into the displacement of the "Koenigs", they had to save on the mass of the hull.
          Versailles is also to blame for the KRT and EM boilers - the Germans did not have time to test boilers with high steam parameters on ships. And on land at constant load, they worked perfectly. So they stuck them on the ships ... and the load on them is variable. Overcomplicated automation could not cope with maintaining the parameters. And the theoretical range and reliability quickly flew down.
          By the way, in the USSR for the transition to high steam parameters they insured themselves and built a special EM - "Experimental". In theory, he was supposed to be stronger than all serial EVs. In practice, it turned out to be slower, weaker and "closer".

    With the advent of France and "Charles de Gaulle" in the Eastern Mediterranean, everything will become completely confused. When providing electronic warfare and air defense, "Moscow" will have to adjust the "friend or foe" system, taking into account that the NATO country is no longer a potential enemy, but a partner, that is, a friend wanted to say, comrade, which in itself is very doubtful due to the recent situation with the Mistrals.
    I don't think it wise to open up my defensive systems. I foresee the next epic of the information war, when a partner country "inadvertently" conducted "friendly" fire on the positions of the allies, and as a result got a conflict situation. The Americans will try to take advantage of the situation for their own purposes. This can be read directly on Obama's face following the meeting of the 20 in Turkey. They have proven their cunning more than once.
    Regarding "Charles de Gaulle" it is not clear what ships, mentioned in passing in the article, are we talking about, which will have to accompany the aircraft carrier? Maybe someone will clarify from the members of the forum ... I read that this is 1 submarine and 1 support vessel (tanker). If so, how are the French going to ensure the sustainability of the AUG? And this formation cannot be called an aviation strike group. What if that ...?! Americans sail the aircraft carrier accompanied by 10-20 ships, because they value their jewelry. Will the French really dare to take such risks, or hope for the Russian fleet ?! What if the terrorists shoot for an hour from some small craft with something like "Shkval" ?! Who will be to blame then ?! Russians or what ?! Recently, a lot of people have been blaming the Russians for all their sins. The Americans have long calculated the risks for their aircraft carriers from small boats, the "gunboat" war is called. Therefore, the Americans are not going to use the AUG against the Iranians, for example, who are just sharpened to wage just such a war.
    Who will provide protection for Charles de Gaulle !? It's even scary to think what will happen to France and the Middle East if the French lose their only aircraft carrier? Then I think that no one will think about anything especially, but will make a strong-willed decision about carpet bombing and cleaning the area with all forces, that is, land. And this is extremely unprofitable for Russia, Syria, Iraq and Iran. This is beneficial to America and the Gulf monarchies.

      It is reported that a Belgian frigate has been accompanying the French aircraft carrier since September. When France announced the upcoming participation of the ship in an operation against the Islamic State (IG) terrorist group, Belgium decided to continue escort. The frigate will continue to follow the aircraft carrier until at least 2 January 2016 year.

      On Wednesday, Britain announced that it would send the Royal Navy's warship HMS Defender in support of France’s efforts to conduct an anti-IS operation and would consider any other Paris request for support.

        While they write like this:
        It is reported that a Belgian frigate has been accompanying the French aircraft carrier since September. When France announced the upcoming participation of the ship in an operation against the Islamic State (IG) terrorist group, Belgium decided to continue escort. The frigate will continue to follow the aircraft carrier until at least 2 January 2016 year.

        On Wednesday, Britain announced that it would send the Royal Navy's warship HMS Defender in support of France’s efforts to conduct an anti-IS operation and would consider any other Paris request for support.

        Thanks, clarified.
        So I say that it is clear that nothing is clear. What ships, in what quantity, in which zone of the theater will operate, and how to interact with the Russians?
        I make the assumption that the Americans, that is, Obama, cannot condescend to an alliance with the Russians in Syria, therefore they are using the French, and on unclear conditions with unclear risks. And the French are trying to demonstrate "determination" in the fight against terrorists, and use all the most valuable that they have.
        It would be correct for the French to first conduct reconnaissance, then lay out alternative plans with the obligatory indication of the goals and means of their implementation, and then, on the basis of negotiations with the "partners", agree on the "best" solutions for the parties, so that "the wolves are fed and the sheep are safe. "
        This is me about the fact that 2-4 NATO ships of the Belgian or British AUG will not give stability, and in case of trouble it is unlikely to help with something. And the aircraft carrier is worth a lot, especially with such a loud name "Charles de Gaulle", this name probably resonates with thunder in the hearts of Americans.
        Why don't the French first think of pulling less visible targets into the region, the same Mistral with guard ships? And at the next stage, do not create a full-fledged grouping that provides 100% coverage of the AUG ?! That’s what the Americans do, the Russians do. By the way, and it must be said, we still have not used the capabilities of our aircraft carrier in Syria. Because it is expensive, risky, troublesome, inefficient, etc., etc.

          Hollande needs wide persuasive gestures. The French are expected of him after the Paris massacre. The war is on including on television screens and on the Internet. Putin also plays a picture on television, in any case, takes into account the rules of the game in the media.
          Apparently, this can explain the illogicality of actions from the point of view of the military; Putin's order to cooperate with the French as allies is intended not only for the commander of the Moskva state missile complex, but also for the ears of Western comrades.

            You correctly noted - the inconsistency of actions from the point of view of the military.
            It is the military who do the hard work, and they are constantly prevented from doing this work - first in Chechnya, then in Donbas, now Syria has reached or is reaching ...

    Much ado about nothing. Firstly, it is unclear whether charlidegol will reach even Cyprus. Secondly, 18 rafals from one lane is of course a terrible force. Barmaley directly run in a panic.

    Dear Sirs, but someone did not pay attention to the report where ISIS was bombed! A beautiful shot, when the tanks were bombed, it does not matter if they were empty, or full, the main event, to destroy the transport on which ISIS transported oil, and sold at bargain prices! A logical question arises: is it a fight against ISIS, or is it a struggle for the price of oil? It is most likely that the victims expressed their condolences and eternal memory, but the fact that the dumping of oil prices in one’s pocket has less settled down, turned out to be a decisive factor, and such that they threw into battle, even strategic aviation! And the overlap on the fight against terrorism is for the people at stake, again someone's pocket!

    Now in Syria, the strongest armies of the world have come together in rehearsals for 3WW. A decision will be made based on the results of the "maneuvers". IMHO.

    I did not mean our forum. Quite a lot has been written about the influence of Nietzsche’s philosophy on Hitler.

    Sorry, did you personally read Nietzsche?

      I read, but what? By the way, it blows my head off quite well :))) Personally, I am extremely grateful to Nietzsche - he helped me pass the cultural studies exam at the university :))) The thing is - I'm going to the exam, I didn't learn anything, as usual, but here "On the other side of good and Evil "I recently read it as part of self-education :) I come to the exam (I see a teacher for the first time) and there is such a smart and snide woman who asks that ... in general, I understand. that with my, albeit not so bad, baggage of knowledge about world religions and philosophical trends, even a troika does not shine - I had to teach. But reluctance to go to retake. The question on Chernyshevsky arises at full height - "What to do?"
      And then I suddenly realize that I am dressed "in shape" (black trousers and a black shirt), and I just cut my hair (naturally under a comb). So purkua wouldn't be na?
      They call me, I go out, a steel shine in my eyes, a square jaw - forward, the muzzle of the face even now asks for a personal matter: "Nordic character, merciless to the enemies of the Reich" and I start to drive a blizzard in the style of a bearded joke: "fish are they do not exist, but if they had wool, fleas would be found in it, and fleas ... ", only instead of fleas I have Nietzsche. And since "On the other side" was read barely a week ago, and I am not complaining about memory, I can quote the author in whole paragraphs from memory ...
      The teacher looks at me in sacred horror - in front of her is an ideological Nietzschean with a clear penchant for foshyzm! And to arrange a theological dispute with a gorilla under two meters in height is more expensive for yourself, there it sparkles like pupils ... in general, I received my "cool" (or four? I don't remember already) and came out quite satisfied, although of course not without sensations of dirt - it is somehow unpleasant to pretend to be a foolish dunce.
