    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    State of Russian Economy is irrelevant for the Syrian War. Or even for that matter the Ukraine. Welcome to the world of the braves. Russians have spent 5 million USD per day of their air war. Kalibr were another 1.2 million USD at unit cost. This is the cheapest and most effective way a war can...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    You probably did not notice. Russians have fully and irrevocably turned your gains in the Ukrainian front and they have entered Syria only after addressing Ukraine. Besides Russians could be into Kiev before Poroshenko can say yes to the base. You remember the old Aesops fable of the boy who...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    Seen that often enough now. At least two millenia worth of this drama and counting. Ukraine is Russian territory. Do whatever you people have to, to save what is yours. Does not matter what methods you chose, every one of them is going to have some upsides and some downsides. Just own upto all...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    ^ Nah, you are just making fun of them. The Israelis already knew about all this and that is why they were whining about Iranian Nuke deal. Assad had already shown that he cannot be taken down. His people are with him. Russians merely acknowledged the reality as such and are today intervening...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    Makes sense. Iran could not have come out without the support of both Russia and China. Our Govt. during those times was being a general fuddu seeking nods from the West for paying of the Iranian oil we had consumed. Now Americans have cut a deal directly and we also have to import their...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    What you have pointed out is the technical stuff. But then Russia and Iran and Iraq and Syria have large expat populations based in the west who hate their own countries. Every single one of the airbases in these countries would already have 10 planespotters assigned to it, telling stuff to the...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    Its overwhelmingly ground attack capability that has been sent into Syria. Essentially they do not seem to be providing for top cover. Is there a chance the West and Russia struck a side deal, an annexure deal at the time of Iranian Nuke Deal. Russians move in, the western press creates FUD and...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    Since there is no 'Indian involvement in Syria' thread. At first I thought what is Bhagwat ji doing with Jaatnis. :p The media jhamela on the Russians getting into Syria reminded me of this (sorry but only Indians would be able to make out what it is):

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    So the Russians are going to create their own version of Zion in Middle East. Syria-ites are going to be the thorn in Middle East just like the Israelites were 50 years back. And again 50 years from today the same game we see today will get repeated only that time it would be in another...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    There may be other reasons for NATO to allow overflight over Turkey. Even the Nato knows that Russians are not going to risk flying in weapons to Assad, from over Turkish controlled territory. So if any flight does not use Turkish airspaces and instead uses Kurdish airspace over northern Iraq...

    Russian involvement in Syrian crisis

    Ukraine was also a game to force Russia to invade like in Chechneya Dagestan. Putin was wise enough to not take the bait. Syria was not, to begin with ie. originally speaking a bait but the Americans would not mind it turning into one. From the Russian side it makes sense to simply lie low and...
