    Definitely US would make everything (including a coup detat, remember July 2016) to keep us within NATO. And we would like to be in as well, although most of conflict of interest comes from NATO countries. But as saying goes, keep your friend close, keep your enemy closer Smile

    Yeah, not sure what Turkey really gets out of this sort of friendship though... sort of get the feeling that if you turned your back for a second they would push you in front of a train

    If you think those 50 B61s is the biggest threat thst Turkey poses against Russia, why would Russians start a project like Turkish Stream that is very crucial for Russian energy security?

    They can't ignore them... they are nuclear weapons..., but I am pretty sure they understand they are American nuclear weapons and not Turkish ones... Turkish stream helps them with one problem of getting more gas volume into Europe without needing the pipes through unreliable Ukraine, and as a bonus will rather help Turkey in its relations with Europe too... Russia has never used gas deliveries as a weapon against europe even during the cold war they got what they paid for even when they were supporting terrorists in Afghanistan against the Soviets etc etc.

    Now it will be up to Turkey... they can use it for pressure to influence the EU, or they could just make money from it... either way it is just as useful to them as it is to Russia.

    I am sure Russia would rather be an ally than an enemy of Turkey... you have some differences and you have fought some wars in the past... but this is europe... there are very few EU members who have never been at war with any of the others... some, like the UK and France have probably been at war with all of them at some stage... UK and US for war of independence etc etc...

    Does Turkey benefit from being in NATO if that means they have to pretend they want to fight Russia?

    Would it not actually be better to not be in NATO and pick who you trade with for yourself... the only threat then would come from NATO itself...

    Those nukes can also be used against Iran or Pakistan. Also, the US uses them to show that they trust & would defend Turkey Against Russia/Iran & to keep her in NATO. Thus, they don't want to rock the boat by withdrawing them now.

    The US has bases all over the world... they are like cockroaches, and just as hard to get rid of...

    Orange cockroach with fake hair and fake teeth and fake tan, wants Jews and evangelist christians who believe in the rapture and end of days and all that shit to vote for him, so he will endorse anything Israel does to get those votes...

    Perhaps he is the antichrist... with his sanctions and brutish actions he is destabilising Americas position as the political and cultural and economic centre of the western universe...

    Which is not to say anything has actually changed... America was always a bully that used its economic strength or military power to force its will upon allies and enemies alike, but he is just being much more open and honest in his lies and bullying.

    What hasn't changed is the irresponsibility of our politicians, who sacrifice real interests to get the votes of traitors here. Trump has just gone where no previous nitwit has gone before...

    Exactly. Trump is hated around the world (and in Western Europe) because the Western Mainstream media suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome. Once the Democrats get the presidency back, they will have the support of the most successful propaganda machine in world history, again.

    So many "anti-Americans" are naive, a Democrat president with almost exactly the same "bullying" would be adored by the European liberal masses. Luckily, Trump (or rather, his demonization by the media) has damaged America's reputation permanently to an extent, probably.

    So Bad Orange Man was certainly better than the alternatives, especially when combined with the continued relative decline of US' overall power.

    It appeared to me that Killary was going to make Syria into a big confrontation between NATO and Russia. Trump basically let
    Russia save the Syrian government and rout the jihadi nutjobs. Those Tomohawk attacks on the phony chemical weapons use
    pretext were half-hearted. All the love for Israel is just reflecting the US political reality. Every politician in the USA tries to
    out-compete the other in proving their love and loyalty for Israel. Pompeo claimed that Trump was sent by God to save Israel...

    But in light of the events on the ground in Syria, Trump is not a good a friend as Killary might have been. The Democrats are much
    more shrill and verminous in their anti-Russian hysteria. The current Russiagate witch hunt was organized and is being pursued by
    Democrats. Thanks to the US fake stream media a lot of Republicans have to play along.

    This war will continue long. This war is far from finished.

    Those fooled by Trump were warned here.

    Of course pro-US and pro-Israeli people will continue defending Trump using tricky arguments, because Trump is doing what they want.

    I rather suspect if Kilary had gotten into office her plan would have involved a no fly zone over most of Syria which would have put US and Turkish forces directly into a confrontational position vs Russian forces...

    But fundamentally I suspect Trump as gone over the top to prove he is hard on Russia, so I suspect if Kilary had won relations with Russia might have actually been better.

    It is ironic but it is generally the hard liner anti Russian politicians that tend to be allowed to forge better relations with Russia than other politicians in the US and elsewhere... no one would ever accuse Ronny Raygun of being soft on commies... (Russians are still commies don't you know?)

    Three Russian troops died in Syria in late February, RIP to the three troops.

    Russian servicemen should just stay at the bases and direct the offense from there and let the SAA and allies battle in the field.

    A large U.S. military convoy entered northeastern Syria this past weekend despite President Donald Trump’s declaration victory against the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh).

    According to a report from the Al-Hasakah Governorate, a U.S. military convoy consisting of more than 150 trucks entered Syria via the Simalka Crossing at the Iraqi border.

    The U.S. military convoy reportedly contained a large amount of weapons that were to be delivered to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

    From what I could tell that was a deliberate ambush, so staying in a base wont give 100% protection, and hiding in bases sends the wrong message too...

    They should continue doing what they are doing, killing ISIS scum and making Syria safe for Syrians... protecting your own house makes you normal... helping someone else protect theirs makes you a hero.

    Will be interesting to see what happens in the Ukrainian and Israeli elections both coming up soon... I suspect Trumps talk regarding the Golan Heights is all about getting SpaghettiYahoo reelected again... will be interesting to see what comes out of it, but I think the first thing Assad should say is that the annexing of the Golan Heights has led him immediately to the decision to allow Iran to base substantial forces in Syrian territory while Syrian land is being occupied illegally by foreigners... Israel and the US/Kurds, and that they can set up bases ballistic missile range from Israel in Syria if they want.

    From what i could tell , it was another show of incompetence ,that could have been avoided
    had the Russia military had competent people , and the leaders of Russia military are chosen by one of the most incompetent pathetic so called "leader" in Russia history Mr Putin.  

    -The ambush was done in a jeep that had ZERO PROTECTION against bullets ,zero armor..
    -Why the jeep move in a caravan of 20 vehicles and is leave alone to deal with an ambush ?

    If the Russians moved in a armored Truck of the ones Russia military have in Syria ,
    they could have ran away from the ambush.. and significantly improve their possibilities.
    Most of the deaths of Russians soldiers i have see in Syria is consequence of the Mediocre
    Leadership and planning...  
    - They lost a Ka-52 full of people flying alone between Syria and IRAQ border..
    knowing well Americans military are there and ISIS.. what could go wrong?
    -Now this new jeep ambushed was guess what?   Alone again.. when it was supposed
    to move together with many other cars...
    -Russia lost a Su-25 to manpads...the Russian military response? lets equip the Su-25 with
    electronic warfare..     great.. why the hell they didn't do that before sending their military
    to a risk mission? Why Russians needs to die first.. for security to be increased?  
    -Russia lost one soldier in one video i saw , versus a suicide bomber in a civilian car..  
    The Russian military all he had to fight was his AK-74 rifle..  not kidding and he was in company
    of a group of Syrian army soldiers , armed with a world war 2 tank with manual firing turret..
    so no wonder they could not stop it.. and assault rifle is not the proper weapon to stop a suicide bomber in manually enhanced light protected car from bullets.. If that soldier had a  modern infantry vehicle with automatic targeting 30mm turret will have stopped that terrorist attack..  It was all the video seen like a movie of mistakes after mistakes.. took the terrorist like 20 seconds in a slow moving car on the sand to reach the position of the Russian was.. and believe it or not.. still he was not stopped..  Laughing
    -Russia medics and doctors were bombed by a mortar.. with GPS guided artillery munition.
    the "Geniuses" of Russian military though it was a good idea to setup a camp of plastic tents in open air 10km away from a position of terrorist this. and all the terrorist had to do to hit them was mortar artillery with a little NATO help.. So they did it.. wiped many Russian doctors.. and Putin as always
    solved all with a condolence to the families.. No and then LATER after they lost their medics
    they decided to put their Hospitals FAR away from Combat in a sheltered protected zone.. what they were supposed to do from the start.. waited for Russians to be killed.. to do it.
    -RIght at the start of the war an hellicopter of medics was shot down when supplying food to civilians in Homes.. and again the hellicopters was -ALONE- in a dangerous place,,and with not electronic warfare..

    -there was also a report of a Russian that was killed in Latakkia ,when he went alone to the shopping places..  No   Someone apparently anti government/pro terrorist /5th column religious nut, saw him and killed him . and again ALONE..
    -The Russian mercenaries.. bombed for 2 hours by Americans and Russian jets did nothing ,neither Russian air defenses used.. to cover their soldiers from US planes.. in such long periods to protect their soldiers.. and stop the artillery and plane attacks on their soldiers.. this was lost of lives
    for pure cowardice of fighting Americans..
    -Not related with Syria but with incompetence.. Russia did not protected right on his borders
    the leaders of Donetsk and Lugansk.. and one by one they all killed by remote bombs in remote places.. this are all deaths that could have been avoided.. Notice how well Putin does with his security.. why he don't have same security for his most important leaders in Donetsk and Lugansk?

    In wars , there is always casualties and mistakes.. but such mistakes are unacceptable ,when
    they are consequences of LAZY careless for security behavior
    .. of their generals and their government.. of not moving in Syria with the proper security ..MOST of the deaths and casualties of Russians soldiers could have been avoided had they had proper equipment.. to counter terrorist.
    and competent leadership that enforce ,their soldiers to always be serious about security..and not take uneded risk  like will be allowing Russian military to move across Syria ALONE in civilians jeeps..

    You have Russia military allowing Israel to have full view , of their tv camera missiles fired
    to Syria to target their pantsirs ..to continue have full view of the battlefield.. instead of using electronic warfare to jam their cameras..  No

    How about those shelters for their planes ? Laughing
    Russia joined Syria war in 2015.. and it was not until 2018 ,that they began to
    feel that perhaps their planes needs anti artillery shelters Rolling Eyes
    for their planes... to increase the security of their soldiers.  No

    This are unbelievable things, that only happens in Russia.. so much incompetence
    ,so much careless aptitude for security , again in wars always there will be casualties.
    but there is NOT EXCUSE for sending your military alone in civilian cars to travel through Syria..
    Knowing how many powerful enemies Russia have in Syria that will like to kill their soldiers.

    I assure all of you.. that if Putin was traveling through that same route... the Russian soldiers
    were ambushed in Syria.. that he will had armored cars protection and will not be alone ,but with a big security formation.. But because it was a Russian soldiers it doesn't matter.. they just throw
    them to a battle field and don't give a shit about proper security for their soldiers.. and this can be seen clearly ,when they start building anti artillery shelters... 3 YEARS LATER after they move to the base.. No So why can't Putin demand the same security he have to his soldiers? when moving around in caravans around Syria ? Is unbelievable and painful to see how many Russians dies
    for stupid decisions .. if Russians die.. better be in a combat mission , but never for being careless
    lazy stupid and lower your guard.. allowing terrorist to ambush traveling alone ..

    Russian Defense Ministry: French and Belgian security services are preparing a provocation with chemical weapons in Syria

    The ministry noted that Western intelligence services will pay $ 100 to participants of the staging himataka


    MOSCOW, March 29. / TASS /. The intelligence services of France and Belgium are preparing a provocation with chemical weapons in Syria to accuse the Russian space forces in strikes on civilians. Representatives of the Western intelligence services have already held a meeting with field commanders of terrorists in the city of Idlib, the head of the Russian Center for Reconciliation of the Warring Parties (included in the Ministry of Defense) in Syria, Major General Viktor Kupchishin, told reporters on Friday.

    "To organize provocations, representatives of the French and Belgian secret services arrived in Idlib. Under their leadership, a meeting was held with the field commanders of the terrorist groups Hayat Tahrir Ash-Sham and Hurras Al-Din" (banned in the Russian Federation), as well as representatives of the White organizations helmets, "said Kupchishin. The general added that the meeting discussed the organization of staging shots," allegedly indicating the use of poisonous substances by Russia and Syria against the civilian population. "

    "On March 23, under the control of the French special services, from the city of Serakab, in the settlements of Khan-Sheikhun, Maaret-Horma and Kafer-Zaita (all in the province of Idlib), a poisonous substance was delivered under the guise of oxygen and gas cylinders "- said the general.

    Kupchyshyn also noted that from 14 to 27 March, representatives of the Belgian secret services videotaped the air strikes inflicted by the Russian VKS aircraft on depots with ammunition and drones on the territory of the Idlib de-escalation zone, “to use them later as evidence of the use of chemical weapons”.

    "For participation in the filming of scenes depicting the effects of the use of poisonous substances, payments in the amount of US $ 100 per person were established," he said.

    He added that it is possible that the organizers would use real toxic substances to achieve “certainty” of photo and video materials. The victims of this crime may be refugees and family members of citizens who were previously repressed by the Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham group of militants.

    "The Russian Center for Reconciliation calls on leaders of illegal armed groups to abandon armed provocations and take the path of peaceful settlement of the situation in the areas under their control," Kupchishin said.

    Any reason why Turkish MOD also gives voice to these claims from Russian MOD.

    In the past I have seen only Russian MOD talking about possible chemical attacks via Russian Center for Reconciliation

Under their leadership, a meeting was held with the field commanders of the terrorist groups Hayat Tahrir Ash-Sham and Hurras Al-Din" (banned in the Russian Federation), as well as representatives of the White organizations helmets, "said Kupchishin. The general added that the meeting discussed the organization of staging shots," allegedly indicating the use of poisonous substances by Russia and Syria against the civilian population. "

    "On March 23, under the control of the French special services, from the city of Serakab, in the settlements of Khan-Sheikhun, Maaret-Horma and Kafer-Zaita (all in the province of Idlib), a poisonous substance was delivered under the guise of oxygen and gas cylinders "- said the general.

    Kupchyshyn also noted that from 14 to 27 March, representatives of the Belgian secret services videotaped the air strikes inflicted by the Russian VKS aircraft on depots with ammunition and drones on the territory of the Idlib de-escalation zone, “to use them later as evidence of the use of chemical weapons”.

    "For participation in the filming of scenes depicting the effects of the use of poisonous substances, payments in the amount of US $ 100 per person were established," he said.

    He added that it is possible that the organizers would use real toxic substances to achieve “certainty” of photo and video materials. The victims of this crime may be refugees and family members of citizens who were previously repressed by the Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham group of militants.

    "The Russian Center for Reconciliation calls on leaders of illegal armed groups to abandon armed provocations and take the path of peaceful settlement of the situation in the areas under their control," Kupchishin said.

    In 1947, Soviet weapon designer Mikhail Kalashnikov combined the features of the StG-43 with the American M1 Garand rifle to form the Avtomat Kalashnikova—the AK-47. ..
    The Czechs also exported 10,000 “self-loading rifles” including StG-44s, along with 500,000 rounds of ammunitions—deals for which Syria eventually still owed $900 million in payment by 1990.
    As Syria acquired a more complete inventory of Cold War-era weaponry and the rare 7.92x33 millimeter ammunition grew scarce, the guns were eventually placed in long-term storage—which is how they came to fall in the hands of Syrian rebels in 2012.
    For four years, the weapons were widely photographed and filmed in combat with Syrian rebel factions, including ISIS and Kurdish fighters, as you can see with this link. However, by 2017 the ammunition had become so scarce that the weapon’s black-market value in Syria collapsed and its appearances grew more infrequent.

    I wonder if it could be chambered for NATO standard 7.62×51mm or AKM/AK-74 7.62x39mm/5.45×39mm ammo. rounds.

    In 1947, Soviet weapon designer Mikhail Kalashnikov combined the features of the StG-43 with the American M1 Garand rifle to form the Avtomat Kalashnikova—the AK-47. ..

    First of all bullshit... everyone knows the M1 Garand is a copy of a much older Russian rifle, and the mechanism of the AK is nothing like the mechanism of either the German rifle or American rip off.

    I wonder if it could be chambered for NATO standard 7.62×51mm or AKM/AK-74 7.62x39mm/5.45×39mm ammo. rounds.

    It probably could be converted to 7.62x39mm but why bother... the magazines are not long enough so you would also need to convert it to use AK magazines, and the german rifles are bloody heavy and not particularly accurate or reliable... for the money the conversion would cost it would make more sense to smuggle it to the west and sell it for cash and just buy a cheap AK for a fraction of the cost and much better performance in a lighter cheaper weapon.

    Of course the anti Assad forces are fine with regards to weapons because they get them supplied by the US, though I have not heard of them using AR-15 type rifles which was developed by a german expert but attributed to an american designer, because AR-15s are notoriously unreliable.

    BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:45 A.M.) – The Russian Air Force carried out a flurry of airstrikes over the western countryside of the Idlib Governorate, today, targeting a number of areas controlled by the jihadist rebels of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham.

    According to a military source in Damascus, the Russian Air Force primarily bombed the Nabi Ayoub mountaintop in the Jabal Al-Zawiya region this morning.

    The source said the Russian Air Force targeted Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham’s communications base; it was later destroyed after the former launched another powerful raid on the site.

    The Russian Air Force would also target some of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham’s hideouts in the Jabal Al-Zawiya region; however, no further details were given in regards to these airstrikes.

    This latest attack by the Russian Air Force comes in response to the jihadist attacks on the government strongholds of Mhardeh and Al-Suqaylabiyeh in the northern countryside of the Hama Governorate.

    The Russian military has a red line when it comes to attacks on Mhardeh and Al-Suqaylabiyeh.

    Whenever these two towns are attacked by the opposition forces, the Russian military typically responds by striking the Idlib Governorate.
