'FAILSAFE' time again!
The new🇺🇦SBU film just dropped.
Full film in link, the clip with the A-50 AWACS aircraft here.
At least two A-50s are hit in their radomes.
Depending on the damage, that could leave Russia with only 2 to 4 operational A-50s remaining (depending upon sources).

The Assad regime had 8 years to rebuild its military capabilities after Iran and Russia saved them, instead, they just sat complacently in their corruption, thinking that Iran and Russia made them untouchable.

The Russo-Ukrainian war followed by October 7th changed the equation.

2 groups of people are upset Ukraine can use long range weapons in Russia.

Nazis & communists. The two groups that claim to hate each other actually agree on a lot.

We are now in turbulent times.
I truly believe that we ended up here because our current political elite got too comfortable doing nothing.
And people know that, its one of the most common critiques.
However, I do not believe that means we need to torch everything as proposed by far left and right.
