    I would t call what Israel is doing as a genocide. Not yet at least. But we clearly are seeing how Russian air defenses are basically useless against American 5th Gen fighters.

    Maybe Russia needs to figure out their shit before they sell defensive systems that do nothing.

      Hm, I’ve had this feeling that I can express thus: these missile exchanges, decoys, air defense saturation and “War of the Cities” feel like dry runs for nuclear exchanges. They are perfecting the launch and psychological warfare tactics.

        Israel will never use a nuke. That would be the end of global economies. They care about money more than they care about nuking Iran. They don’t need to nuke them. They have complete air control. They can do whatever they want with explosives now.

        It’s always serious and prep at the same time.

        They’re seriously fighting over resources and land, and prepping for the future wars to come because everyone knows the resource wars are around the corner
