Total truth honestly

Zionist Slaves of America

The NATO leadership must be having a nervous breakdown, they not only aren’t able to stop the fifty cent Iranian Dorito drones from relentlessly wrecking Ukraine’s infrastructure but every time they try and/or hit one of those cheap, cheat drones, it means they wasted at least 2 super expensive +million dollars air defense missiles for it.Slava Putin. Slava Bashar Hafez al-Assad.

Russia Is Looking Like A Fool, No REALLY!

Yes NATO Leadership after kicking Russian Ass for Ten Months in the War, are definitely worried about some crappy Middle-Eastern Drones being sent to Russia, at this point nothing but Nuclear Weapons could save the Incompetent Russians, and even those the Russians will not use.

LOL That’s so funny when you put it like that. The USA throwing dollars at dimes.

A rough calculation from military academy perspective decree that: it is needed 4 MORE 80-90 Kalibr misilles into the electric denazification and Ukroreich will be at max 5% capacity. But that takes more than 2 months and off course, the ‘good will’ of the russian politiks.

The problem is the fallout and I don’t mean the radioactive one, but the political one. The most important issue is the strategic perspective: the forming of alliances in opposition to the West. Right now, BRICS and SCO are such organizations. The shredding of the Dollar as reserve currency, Petro-Dollar and so on.

Russia fired 100 missiles and Ukraine shot down 150, the usual lies and manure from Ukraine…..

Attacking secondary power facilities, that can be repair, is not strategic.

Attacking secondary transformers and substations, is of no lasting strategic value.
It is at the best a distraction and of short term strategic value.

“The Ukrainian authorities officially reported that only 5 drones achieved their goal.” …. and the same “5” hit multiple Ukrap targets.

Forget about Mr Bear’s wonderful “KamikaZe” drones, these new LaZarus drones take ukrapper culling to a whole new dimension.

Israel first

I thought all their missiles get shot down? Who knew?
Either way, Russia needs to step up protecting their own energy grid and secure their domestic gas and oil infrastructure.

Have you ever heard of the saying Too Little, Too Late, well that saying can definitely be applied here! The Incompetent Russians should have done this on day one, but instead waited Ten Whole Months into the War, imagine how different things would have been if they have done so, maybe the Ukrainian Will to wage War would have been broken or about to as Europe enters into Winter!
