While i agree that we are not in the age of empires and territorial integrity / sovereignity should be respected by all. But most of the countries we are talking about are a result of balkanization of ussr ! And the split of these countries was not as simple . A significant portion of the...

I find it very weird that every ramadan there is some type of Israeli/Palestinian conflict. As if both parites are deliberately trying do it in ramadan. I understand the longstanding issues and the overall conflict. But why does it always escalate in ramadan ? The timing is always similar ...

Russia made a big strategic blunder entering into this war. This is unwinnable. They might be able to size some territory but its not worth the huge losses. Russian have massively underestimated ukraine and now have fallen into a trap. West will use this war to contain Russian. This helps...

True but ukraine is also experienced in war since 2014 . Also the have experience with russian equipment. So they are able to exploit weakness in some ways . Also russia is not just fighting ukraine. They are in a fight with geopolitical oppositions. And this opposition's goal is different...

I think China is much stronger in terms of conventional forces than russia. They have much better airforce for this type of conflict.

To do this russian air force will need to do massive tactical bombing campaigns similar to USAF in gulf war / iraq war. This is not an easy task. You need a large amount SEAD/ DEAD efforts which russians seem to be unable to do. Ukrainian air defences are still up and running which will cause a...

I dont think it was ukranian missiles . Its probably some modern western anti ship missile. News have been going around for weeks that the west are to supply ukraine with anti ship weapons.

Yeah that could be true too. But i believe during world war 2 after the sinking of HMS Hood by Bismark , the was an outcry for revenge by the British. Lets hope something like that dont happen

I found it interesting that US downplayed the sinking of Moscova . Firstly they did not confirm its sinking & secondly they did not attribute the kill to ukrainian forces. Additionally the ukrainian government also went quiet after the initial announcement. While news has been circulating the...

I don't know how that ends. Rational decision for Russia in that case is to stop the war and accept whatever deal they have in front. But Russia hasnt acted rational , did they ? This is what i fear.

Yes but west needs to help Russia to get a face saving deal. For example, during the last days of the US war in Afghanistan if the taliban out carried any attacks that caused significant casualties for the US side, the war would not have ended. There would be too much pressure in US for...

If this ship is destroyed. There will be a large casualties. And as this is the flagship of the fleet ,its loss cannot be hidden. This will cause humiliation of russian state. Now is the time for a peace deal. Further escalation will increase the chances of the war spilling over. I hope...

Is it a large combat ship ? Then this is a serious escalation of the war. Very bad news. Russia getting cornered is not good thing for the world. West needs to try for a peace deal immediately. Hopefully Russia will also cooperate.

I am suspecting, going forward china will only support russia if it chooses to be the junior partner. China will be dominant partner in the alliance. I also think , putin is not dumb .. he also understands this. Thats why we see the change in russian strategy to get a more achievable goal...

I am very interested to find out how this war is playing out in Middle Eastern regional politics. We saw a shift in Middle east after russia decisively won the war in syria for the Assad govt. Now russia is seemingly loosing a war in Europe and we are seeing egypt militarily distancing...

They would never withdraw, if they were able to take kiev right ? Russia is supposed to be a global military power! Them not being able to take the capital of ukraine is itself a defeat ! As a casual observer i thought this war would be over by a month with ukrains capitulation. But...

This conflict has been pretty shocking! The fact that russian forces are retreating from kiev after a month of fighting looks like a defeat to me . This outcome has gravely impacted russian image as giobal power. All non western aligned countries will now be moving away from russia and...

no one would do anything if US attacks syria...............russians already backed down.......... american freedom coming to syria:usflag:

i also think in the next decade the picture will change ..US wont be unrivaled anymore .....................but this decade i think is still theirs
