Only an idiot would think Trump Putin Assad or anyone else for that matter wants to go and spend the rest of their life in bunker like Hitler, at very best.
Well, you’re the one who started by shooting his mouth off about threatening Russia with how strong the West’s nuclear arsenal is compared with their puny opponents.
if the bombs fall on Russians or seriously damage Iran’s interests,, then you’ll see action.
if the bombs fall on UK USA FRANCE NATO or seriously damage Israel’s interests, then this “action” of yours will appear a lot sooner, fiercer, decisive, unrepliable, one sided and emphatically.
It’s the US and their lickspittle ally the UK which is dropping the bombs – and successfully taking great care as to not to drop them on Russians, from what I see.
And you really don’t seem to know what you’re talking about.
Only an idiot would suggest the middle east is dominated by Russian nuclear bombs.
What nuclear bases do Russia have in the middle east?you don’t take nuclear arms by packhorse to a cave opposite your target and just lob them over and cover your eyes. Russia (or the USA, or even the UK) can strike from their own territory or from under the sea.
As I said earlier, all-out thermonuclear war is not on the cards. It would have to escalate incredibly for that to even become a danger.
limited nuclear warfare is what they generally plan now, and even using them on that basis is stepping over a line. The national Security Council recently said that it was highly likely it would happen by the middle of the century. let’s hope they’re wrong, but shooting your mouth off about how yo could wipe the floor with your opponent with them is not a way of ensuring it doesn’t happen. A minut’e thought by a person of moderate intelligence would see that.
The air strikes seem to have been very modest. I doubt there’ll be much comeback on them apart form verbal.
They have done nothing to stop Russian influence in the region, or to stop Assad winning, and it’s looking likely that they won’t have severely dented Syria’s ability to use chemical weapons, though the jury’s still out on that one.
As I stated, only an idiot thinks that the solution to the Syrian war is more killing.
I’m awfully sorry for having a different opinion to you. I will try to make my opinions correspond better with yours in future. Thankyou very much for the ad hominems and personal insults. I assume I received them because I have a different opinion to you.
Thankyou for your adult and well articulated debate x
P.S Thankyou for twisting my words most beautifully

Exactly, you’re contradicting yourself now. You suggested earlier Russia somehow dominated Israel in the middle east. You prove my point for me, thankyou.
How can Russia exert any more nuclear authority than Israel or her USA and UK FRANCE NATO allies in the region.
In today’s modern warfare Air superiority is EVERYTHING. Israel has had Air superiority over the middle east for 50+ years now. That’s one reason how they can win their wars of 67 and 73 they were heavily outnumbered in. It’s also why Israel remains on the map today.
Russia has no Air superiority outside of Russian airspace anywhere on the planet.
I think we should keep a remained presence there too, which I believe would diffuse the situation.
As I stated, only an idiot thinks that the solution to the Syrian war is more killing.
I assume the idiot is me? if not, I’ll argue for the idiot anyway. Where have I advocated more killing? How does “diffusing the situation” or “sending the Lions in to scatter and disperse the rampaging cheetahs and leopards” equate to more killing?
Only an idiot could infer the second from the first. Only an idiot could read diffusing the situation as more killing.
Only a matter of time before war breaks out somewhere , the human race has been killing each other since time began.. whats new?
War is as integral to humanity as love and peace.
Let’s just hope they’re ultra-careful (which will achieve nothing) because any military strike on Syria will accomplish sweet fa unless it leads to a major international crisis.
scep, I would argue this statement of yours advocates “more killing in Syria” more than anything I’ve said.
This bombing raid is very limited. It’s turning out to be a tale of sound and fury, signifying nothing but total British subservience to the United States.
For the former, I can only express relief. For the latter..you ain’t seen nothing yet once Brexit happens, as Chomsky has pointed out.
This bombing raid is very limited. It’s turning out to be a tale of sound and fury, signifying nothing but total British subservience to the United States.
I think this raid signifies many things. The most important being:
- When we turn up we have Air supremacy AND Command of the Sea. (That has massive implications)
- The Russians saw us coming. Why didn’t they hinder, prevent or stop us? (This has massive implications)
- The last time a Russian jet was shot down by Erdogan’s Turkey, Putin has since been to praise him and grovel up to him in Turkey. (This has massive implications)
- Why didn’t Putin take on Turkey?
- If Putin won’t take on Turkey for shooting his jet down, do you think he’ll be in a rush take on USA or Nato?
- Why hasn’t Putin shot down any Israeli or Turkish jets that have ventured into Syria on missions?
- Who has Air supremacy over Syrian airspace? Syria? Turkey? Iran? Russia? A joint Syrian-Russian force? Israel? USA? None?
I believe Israel ultimately has Air supremacy over Syrian airspace, and Turkey also has an influence in the north of Syria. NATO ultimately has Air supremacy, as would Russia, but that would entail moving massive fleets and forces to the mediterranean.
The raid was an exercise to remind Putin of that dynamic, and invite him to change that dynamic. He very wisely declined that offer. He don’t fancy bunker life much.
