entirely predictable. Had they been successful in Ukraine, the question then becomes whose next.

rationally Turkey should be moving their army into the nation. Turkey has to create a scenario where if Russia attacks Kazakstan then its war with Turkey too.
No thanks like i said before current Kazakh goverment is under the control of Gulenists.If they want to became Ukranians 2.0 that shit on them.

This would have had a big impact if it was done months ago

If this was a response just because of the recent protests against AKP, it shows foreign policy being used as part of domestic policy just to appease voters but this will backfire.

People will say "you've been selling jet fuel to Israel all these months while saying they are conducting genocide?" and it has vindicated critics of the AKP over this like Metin Cihan


"TRADE WITH ISRAEL IS A BIG LIE" headlines didn't last so long ahaha


"In the data reflected in the statistics, almost all of the trade to Palestine appears as Israel"


"The Minister of Commerce, with his insincerity, which was reflected in his tone, said that trade with Israel was manipulation and that those who voiced this trade were terrorist organizations, fake accounts and Mossad."

Afaik, 21 states has law against boycotting Israel. Not a federal law. And that is related Americans and American companies. But I could be mistaken.

Those states can take action against businesses, they did something like that with AirBnB a whole ago.

Great article.

Touches on how Turkey wants to connect with Mosul and Kirkuk, the risk of Iran rejection, the danger of KDP losing the majority in the autonomous government (PUK may take premiership and presidency) for Turkey and that Turkey is trying to benefit Hashd militias by involving them, hoping that they would therefore support the development road.

Lol at the KDP saying their consent is required, they are well and truly fucked and even their ally Erdogan is shitting on them

There are some cliques within the country, in a religious-looking and in ummahist idea, but they are stupid enough to be pawns of other countries' intelligence services... Also need to add, most of their opinion leaders also have a common characteristics, like all have same connections for some reason...

The Vienna Convention also failed: seize embassies and arrest whoever you want :(

Russian security forces broke into and illegally searched the home of a Kyrgyz diplomat in Moscow.

Two employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation arrived at the residence address of the adviser to the Embassy of the Kyrgyz Republic Manas Zholdoshbekov in Moscow with the “purpose of checking the legality of the grounds for the stay of a foreign citizen.” on the territory of the Russian Federation."
Security forces broke down the door to the apartment of a Kyrgyz diplomat, demanding that he provide a detachable part of his migration record.

Despite the presentation of diplomatic passports
employees continued to persistently demand documents for migration registration. During the incident, the diplomat's wife was wounded.

Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan called his Iranian counterpart and said that Turkey does not want more tension in the region after Iran retaliated against Israel last night.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abdullahian said that the retaliatory operation against Israel has ended and Iran will not launch a new operation unless it is attacked.

Tehran admitted that it warned "the United States and Iran's neighbors" before attacking Israel. All this cannot be perceived as theater or some kind of agreement.

I took this post from another thread, which really explains why this was no more then theatre.


Unless you have a layered missile system, be it subsonic, supersonic or hypersonic, it is all academic when it comes to real life events.

Last night we watched the Arrow system intercepting an exoatmospheric Iranian missile. That missile must have been travelling at high hypersonic speeds when it was intercepted.
Going by several Russian claims of S400 missile system intercepting hypersonic missiles and a Zircon being downed in Ukraine too, it is evident that even hypersonic missiles can be stopped with a capable well designed ADS.
We know that a missile like ESSM can stop supersonic missiles. Barak 8 can stop an Iskander missile that actually flies at hypersonic speeds during midcourse, albeit is most likely stopped by Barak 8 at terminal stage when it is travelling at supersonic speeds.

Any missile can be intercepted if you have the right system to counter it.

What is necessary here, is to have an effective layered attack missile system as well as a layered defence system.

There are instances where you will need a subsonic missile:
Like, if you need to saturate ADS inventory or,
Like, if you need your missile to hug the contours of the geography.

There are instances where you will need a hypersonic missile:
Like, when you are using a Carrier Killer ballistic missile
Like, when you have an HGV to attack high value strategic positions.

One must remember that a hypersonic missile is many times more expensive than a subsonic and a supersonic missile.
It should also be noted that to qualify for “hypersonic“ it has to travel at that speed in terminal phase.

It is “silly” to engage in a “full frontal attack” posture with a country when that country’s ADS is fully operational and you do not aim to destroy it’s ADS and radar system, by making it present itself to your anti radiation missiles, with your cheap subsonic drones and low value missiles as decoys.

Last night’s firework display was ”silly” .
It did not mean anything.

What we saw from Iran was no more then "smoke and mirrors". In a strategic sense it meant nothing, but in terms of propaganda value it meant everything. The biggest winner from it is Isreal. As long as Iran plays the "bogeyman" the Isrealis can eternally play the victim as they commit open genocide and claim the entire islamic world is an enemy.

Muslims really need to wise up, otherwise the era that we only just came out of will repeat itself. The global narrative of Muslims being the enemy keeps ramping up, there is a big plan there.
