SYRIA, RUSSIA, US - BEFORE THE RUMBLE STARTS


While a big rumble has not yet begun in Syria, two main points can be noted. First is the latest statement by the Russian ambassador to Lebanon referring to the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the acting president of the Russian Federation. He said that the position of Russian troops in Syria is to total destruction of all missiles that can be launched from Syria, as well as all the carriers of these missiles. In other words, we are talking about a possible attack on American aircraft and naval forces that have been or will be deployed in the Syrian military theater. Yesterday there were reports that the SU jets, equipped with anti-ship missiles X-35, were raised from the Khmeimim air base.

It is necessary to make a small retreat here and give a remark, left by a Russian in a social network: "So we are now losing billions of dollars every day just for some of the Donetsk inhabitains to have an opportunity to not learn Ukrainian language, an I correctly understand it?" And this situation is even worse. Putin is ready to put his country into a leprosy for decades just in order to provide his Middle Eastern friends a further opportunity to use chemical weapon against own population. Whether the Russians want it or not, but the question is set straight in this way. In fact, it is ordinary Russians, who will pay for this from own taxes, not the Syrian elites.

Ie, showing off friendly hugs with Assad on diplomatic meetings is one thing, and other is to enter an open confrontation with the coalition troops of the United States and the Gulf countries. Even statements in this direction will have trigger devastating consequences for Moscow, not to mention direct steps.

Meanwhile, reports appeared that the command of the Russian troops in Syria has already returned all its aircraft from peripheral airfields such as Dumeyr and T-4 to Khmeimim, and from there, at least one Tu-134 - that is usualy serves to transport the military command - has already flew to Rostov. This is already called a "get out of harm's way" sort of maneur.

What is characteristic is the above statement is clearly addressed to Washington, because at the same time, Israel is too busy with Hezbollah forces and nobody knocks out missiles or the IDF's aircraft. Obviously, noone has pay attention on them, or even can't detect properly.

On the other hand, there are reports from Turkey that about 22 military infrastructure facilities, including several key airfields, military bases and government facilities in Syria have been selected as an attack targets. What is most interesting, there is information that the base of the Russian Air Force in Khmeimim and naval base in Tartus are in the list. Clearly, the information is not confirmed and its reliability will be could be seen only if the targets are worked out, but it is believed that Russian objects can be included in the second stage list. On this scenario, Moscow have two options - either they will quench own ambitions, and in this case the rests of pro-Asad coalition are gradually eliminated, or they'll decide to shoot the coalition, and in this case the RUssian military bases will difenatelly be included to the targets list. At the same time, it must be understood that all actions of the coalition in relation to the Russian Federation were clearly and very cultural in nature. The bombing of the Shiyat Air Base was carried out jewelerly and not a single Russian soldier or vechile was injured. The same was the case under Hisham, when the fire on Russian Wagner's unit was opened only after the Russian military command had officially forsworn own military group.

In general, all the initial data is already clear, now it remains to observe a solution to the situation that should occur in the coming Days.
