    Just like Trump, the western-led mason entrenched media hate and attack Putin.
    I think this gives us hope. For if they detest Trump and Putin; then Trump and Putin must be doing something right.

    DeGualle, seriously... did you read the post that Richard sourced.

    This is a documented fact, and a travesty at that: a Russian leader trusted a western leader; only to be lied-to on a gargantic scale.

    Where's your sense of decency regarding this issue...

    Shocking!
     
  4. Who is attacking Russia’s bases in Syria? A new mystery emerges in the war.

    BEIRUT — A series of mysterious attacks against the main Russian military base in Syria, including one conducted by a swarm of armed miniature drones, has exposed Russia’s continued vulnerability in the country despite recent claims of victory by President Vladimir Putin.

    The attacks have also spurred a flurry of questions over who may be responsible for what amounts to the biggest military challenge yet to Russia’s role in Syria, just when Moscow is seeking to wind its presence down.

    In the most recent and unusual of the attacks, more than a dozen armed drones descended from an unknown location onto Russia’s vast Hmeimim air base in northwestern Latakia province, the headquarters of Russia’s military operations in Syria, and on the nearby Russian naval base at Tartus.

    Russia said that it shot down seven of the 13 drones and used electronic countermeasures to safely bring down the other six. It said no serious damage was caused.

    The drone attack, however, came less than a week after two Russian servicemen were killed in a sustained mortar assault on the same base, which appears to have caused some damage to Russian military assets.

    The Russian Defense Ministry denied a report in the Russian Kommersant publication that seven warplanes were put out of action in the mortar attack, including two of its premier Su-35 fighter jets and four Su-24 attack aircraft, losses that would represent the worst single day for the Russian air force in decades. A Russian journalist posted photographs of damage that suggested at least some planes had been hit.

    ........The attacks also raise questions about the sustainability of Russia’s gains in Syria, said Jennifer Cafarella of the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War. In December, Putin visited the Hmeimim base and said Russia would start to wind its presence down because the war in Syria is essentially over.

    I can understand the Russian view to feel threatened. The NATO expansion is threatening.
    And the Russian side always emphasized that the installation of the Ashore Missile Defense System (Aegis) in Romania is seen as a direct threat. And Russia always said that they have to react to guarantee the strategic balance. To tell this system is directed only against Iran, subordinates the Russians quite a lot of naivety.

    Whether Russia was consecrated or not, i do not know. I also see the Nato side as aggressive towards Russia, not the other way around. But many prophecies speak of a Russian invasion. As a connection, i could imagine, when pressure on Russia gets too big a pre-emptiv strike could be seen as a last way out. And that would mean the invasion.

    I think not only in Germany the media have been trying for years to operate with war propaganda. Normally it would be clear, only an approximation is rational. But it's almost funny for what the Russians are blamed for in German news. Since there is Trump he suffers the same medial treatment. And also Hungarian and Polish governmént.

    But as mentioned above that is a sign of quality for the persons affected.

    I am hoping that Richard is right about this and if you research my previous posts on the subject, you will see that I was very supportive of Putin's intervention in Syria and regarded him with far more trust than I did Obama. I have expressed my strong approval of Putin's role in reviving Christianity in Russia and his rejection of the LGBT (or whatever it is today) agenda. I consider he has been inspirational at times. I have never partaken of demonisation of Putin but I have always made clear, and this is patently obvious in those relevant posts from the past, that I regard him as no saint. I do strongly suspect him of authoritarianism and a tendency to totalitarianism, something I would link to the Russian political spirit and not specifically to Bolshevism, although it naturally formed part of that. The Czars on the whole were quite totalitarian, also. Of course this may not be a bad thing, sometimes one can get a good dictator...sometimes not so good (still probably better than democracy). Putin may have been lied to, politicians lie. Put not your trust in princes, none of them. That being said, I do consider the world, and what's left of Christendom in particular, a bit safer with Putin in charge of Russia. I'm not going to make an idol of him, though.

    I wish you had had more patience to learn my views before jumping in and questioning my sense of decency. I don't think I deserved that.

    One thing that strikes me about the ongoing, ludicrous allegations that Putin influenced the US Presidential election is that it seems that some very powerful people are intent upon making it very difficult for Donald Trump to reach out the hand of friendship to Vladimir Putin. Is this because a Trump/Putin alliance could fatally undermine the globalist-secular agenda?

    Looks like it. It's not at all surprising that the infamous dossier was compiled for John McCain to pass on to the FBI. I don't think it a coincidence that Romney is being touted as returning to active politics now that McCain's illness means they have lost a mouthpiece. While I wish John McCain well in his battle with cancer, I don't miss his warmongering voice on the world state.

    We on this side of the Atlantic don't get all the news surrounding the FBI's partisanship. The association of some FBI agents with the Democratic Party and their active support of Hillary Clinton should have ruled them out of having any part of the investigation of her or Trump. And the blatant bias wasn't confined to the FBI but extended to the Justice Department. What amazes me is that it is never mentioned by European reporters who would be up in arms were a similar situation to prevail in their own countries. One of the people involved in the Clinton investigation was married to a Democratic Party politician. They actually drafted Clinton's exoneration long before they completed the investigation and before they interviewed her. And they didn't record her interview. Some of the people investigating Trump appear to have been planting information with Democratic Party media mouthpieces which explains how information that was supposedly top secret one day became headline news the next day.

    Some of their activities were reminiscent of the Stasi, and for all their boasting about the US "free" press, the likes of CNN could give Pravda a run for its money in the propaganda stakes. Their screaming about Russia interfering in the US election boils down to biased news and plants on media comment boxes. The US has been guilty of far worse interference in other countries.

  10. It goes back to and involves Obama....without his permission his own AG and Sec. of State would not have been allowed to order the FBI to use its power for political purposes nor to make state secrets available to the highest bidder for their personal criminal enterprise of money laundering for personal wealth gathering. It's outrageous in its evil intent, it seems today, to only a minority since most have become comfortable with those who permit only the satisfactions of the material world and now punish anything of faith in God and His universal laws. Obama was raised up for this purpose (more than likely by CIA involvement since he could not have been so prepared without help and with such a loathsome background of no other qualifications or legitimacy) to bring down the only Christian country whose purpose is to influence others. We see that clearly now when we have someone who beat the odds via the Mercy of God to give us a second chance, due to the prayers and sacrifices of many still, and who is attacked by all of the forces of the "prince of this world". It's pretty clear that such a scheme by evil was fully expected to continue via Clinton in that spot and so now, instead witnessing such corruption being interrupted and exposed, "they" are raging against any interference. This is why those agencies at the top of our so called Justice system are busy destroying evidence or stalling, redacting, and refusing to follow the rules of answering to Congress when it requests such evidence. Too many of them will be exposed otherwise. And of course that same need for expediency, since evil knows its time is short, is openly being displayed by the authorities of the Church....for they too are being exposed for their real thinking and hoped for influence on the side of evil. This is all part of the universal purification and each is being called to take a stand. The side of evil is introducing major events which will force the "solid ones" of faith to expose themselves/identify themselves so they can "hopefully", on the part of those already sold to evil, be eradicated. We're now in the middle of it all....of Revelation. More intense prayers are becoming the weapons of necessity now.

    No. The Associated Press is reporting that today Russia's Defense Ministry displayed a pair of the drones that were captured during the recent drone-swarm attack on two Russian military bases in Syria, saying the attack required know-how indicating it was carried out with outside assistance. Vladimir Putin accused outside powers he wouldn't name of staging the attack to derail a deal between Russia, Turkey and Iran that is intended to reduce hostilities in Syria. In other words, it wasn't Turkey. More likely it was Israel, Saudi Arabia, the United States or Jordan - all of whom are suspected to be covertly aiding ISIS in its war against Assad.

    Interestingly, if Israel is indeed covertly helping ISIS (and it is rather strange that Israel has bombed the Christian-defending Syrian army too many times to count but hardly ever bombs the Christian-butchering ISIS) then it would be strong indication to my mind that the Antichrist might well be alive today, as we are currently witnessing the greatest persecution against Catholics in the cradle of Christianity in Syria - a persecution that has rivaled the ancient Roman persecutions in quality and quantity. If he final Antichrist is not alive, his type is certainly on the scene today.
     
  13. What about the Saudi's....they've allegedly ordered drones from China and Israel....used against Yemen I believe.

    The Saudis are a prime suspect, a point I made in the post above, but I doubt they are the ringleader.

    Some entity is trying to derail Russia’s efforts towards peace now that most of the terrorists have been eradicated. Blaming Turkey is predictable because, remember, the relationship between Turkey and Russia was on the verge of a shooting war not too long ago when, in 2015, the Turkish F-16 shot down the Russian Su-24 jet in Syria near the border with Turkey. That incident resulted in the Russian pilot and weapon systems officer both ejecting from the aircraft. The weapon systems officer was rescued but the the pilot was killed by Syrian rebels and his body dragged and mistreated on YouTube. A Russian special forces soldier from the search-and-rescue team launched to retrieve the two airmen was also killed when a rescue helicopter was targeted by the Western-backed Syrian
    Rebels. At that time there were calls in Russia for a very harsh response to Turkey. But Putin showed his discernment and discipline and found a way to restore the relationship even though I’m sure it was very painful to do so and the urge was there to retaliate harshly against the Turks. Putin knew that the chances for an ultimately peaceful and political resolution to the Syrian crisis - and therefore the fate of the Christians in Syria - hinged on a successful relationship between Turkey and Russia (and Iran for that matter). But some entity clearly wants division and distrust to exist between Russia, Iran and Turkey in order to derail the peace process in Syria.

    This describes it. What is happening in this country is a fierce spiritual battle as well as a material battle. DJT was never supposed to win. There was a plan and a timeline. But God intervened. God has His own time line. We must pray and keep praying. This evil tap root runs deep and yanking it out will be a bloody and savage business but it MUST be done and it can be done with God's help and righteous men and woman courageously going forward. I think we are going to see and hear extraordinary things in the coming months. Gotta keep praying that God brings the Victory. Just came home from watching The Darkest Hour. It brings home to me in such clear terms how an utterly dire terrible seemingly hopeless fate can be turned by the courage and vision of those fighting for the good and refusing to surrender.

    The drone attacks were a failure. Israel usually doesn't fail in what it does. They are ruthless and efficient. I agree that they are certainly ruthless enough that if their interests are best represented by supporting ISIS at the expense of Christian lives, they would not hesitate to do so. I doubt that they would so blatantly unmask themselves with a half-cocked episode like this. The Obama regime certainly supported ISIS, but it seems obvious that this has ceased with Trump. The proof is in the rapid decline of ISIS and its 'caliphate' since his inauguration. One cannot rule out a US faction that would wish to create a divide between Trump and Putin, of course.

    Still that Turkish dictator is an ambitious man and not one I would call at all trustworthy. He would prefer to see a Russian withdrawal that would leave the Levant wide open for a restoration of the Ottoman Empire.

    Exactly. Turkey has one of the U.S's most important nuclear bases. I have no doubt Erdogan would just love to take that over.

  19. Russia's EXPLOSIVE war games: Thousands of troops simulate ATTACK in huge drills

    RUSSIA has sparked fears of a potential war looming as thousands of troops simulated a deadly attack during huge military drills. Pictures from the Khmelyovka training ground show soldiers in a massive range of war scenarios, including detonating weapons on the battlefield.

    Huge explosions are seen in some of the photos, blasting sand from the beach as fireball erupted.

    Troops were seen testing out UR-77 Meteroit mine clearing systems, or working with an array of pistols and guns.

    And flares filled the air with smoke as soldiers advanced on their targets under the cover of the thick black plumes.

    The drills involved more than1,000 soldiers, including the engineer and sapper units of the Russian Navy’s Baltic Fleet.

    And the military exercise comes amid concern Russia could be preparing to launch an attack.

    Fears of preparations for an invasion have repeatedly been dismissed by the Kremlin but observers are concerned Russia is still lying about the true number of troops taking part in the country's multiple drills.

    Just days ago, Riho Terras, the commander of the Estonian Defence Forces, revealed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s forces “simulated a large-scale military attack” against NATO last September.

    He claimed the war games were so the superpower could prepare to move a large number of troops at extremely short notice if it were to go to war with the US-led organization.

    Other leading figures have voiced similar concerns that Mr Putin could be preparing for war with Europe and the USA.

    General Curtis Scaparrotti, Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, said: “It's following in line with what we've seen with these annual exercises in the past.

    “They're usually very large. They're usually initially defensive in nature but also have an offensive portion thereafter that looks to me like a rehearsal of an attack.

    “That's worrisome if you're a NATO country on the border.”

    Finland orders biggest ever military drill with US forces fearing Russian attack

    FINLAND’S defence minister is drawing up plans to bring in US troops to carry out the country’s biggest ever military exercise in the face of increasing Russian aggression.

    ......The comments come as US Defence Secretary James ‘Mad Dog’ Mattis visits the Finnish capital for a meeting with the Northern Group, a defence forum which includes Britain, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Sweden.

    ........Last month, Norway said an electronic attack that jammed GPS on flights came from Russia and occurred at the same time Putin’s forces were carrying out their ‘Zapad’ military drills nearby.

    Finland, which shares a 833-mile border with Russia, has moved to develop closer ties with the West.

    Charly Salonius-Pasternak, a senior research fellow at the Finnish Institute of International Affairs, believes Washington’s engagement through the Northern Group is extremely important.

    He said: “There is a lot less tone deafness from Washington these days about the domestic situation [in Finland].

    Plans for the Finnish military drill will show Russia that Scandinavia is serious about defence and preventing any future crises.

    Former US diplomat James Townsend said: “In the region, it’s a big deal. It’s a sign to neighbours, Russia and to the Finnish people that things are changing.”
