Are you saying (and you do!) that absolutely every thread on any subject has to be turned into a vehicle for your anti-West obsessiveness? :?

Wait a minute! It’s past 9.30 there. I’m distracting you from your daily anti-UK posts. My apologies. :(

When are these fools gonna realize that Russia has surpassed them in rocketry and space technology by at least 10 years, with the introduction of the S-500?

How many times does Putin have to warn the fools that Russia has developed weaponry unknown to the rest of the planet?

An interesting characteristic of a lot of Dictators, particularly those who’ve presided over a sophisticated State propaganda apparatus, is recourse to regular threats about their regime’s development of “Wonderweapons”. That, usually occurring in the later phases of a conflict, when they’re in a backs to the wall situation.

Odd, there’s been no sign of the supposed world-beating electronics freezing ray the Russians apparently developed and demonstrated in the Black Sea years ago. :?

It’s good to read you’ve added military rocket technology to your impressive arsenal of expertise. That, and your solving the moon craters mystery from your keyboard in Tseri.

You misunderstand and obviously haven’t read the Wicki article. Don’t feel guilty about it though. :lol:

“Wonder weapons” are certainly real. It’s just they’re systems either in early development, are prototypes or will be deployed in numbers too small to have any impact on the conflict concerned. The threats about using them really come down to little more than bellicose propaganda.

The recent sabre-rattling about the Sarmat 2 is perhaps a good example. It’s just been tested and supposedly isn’t due to commence deployment until the end of this year. That, in order to replace an already existing silo missile in a situation where both sides have had the capability to obliterate the other several times over for half a century. It’s main achievement will likely be to chuck some petrol on the arms-race fire.

To me, the recent Russian hype about wonder weapons seems to have a note of desperation about it. The point I am making. Plus, it gives Vlad a PR equivalent to getting his shirt off - for domestic consumption.

A country 11th on the global GDP chart, spending billions on vanity defence projects, led by a dictator of 22 years standing with imperial expansionist ambitions should set any rational person’s alarm bells ringing. Not you GR! :lol: :wink:

I looked at your first link. It seems to be something about some Apple TV series and a so-called “space cannon” :? Gave up there.

AFAIUI though there are currently about 30 X S500 units. Like the Sarmat,I can’t really see their relevance to what’s happening in Ukraine. :?

Bernie Ecclestone Says He Would “Take A Bullet” For Vladimir Putin, Criticizes Volodymyr Zelensky & U.S. Intervention

Bernie Ecclestone has said he would “take a bullet” for Vladimir Putin and called the Russian leader a “first class person,” while criticizing Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky and U.S. intervention.

Speaking on ITV’s Good Morning Britain earlier, the 91-year-old former CEO of the Formula One Group, who has previously spent time with Putin, said the Russian leader was doing “something he believed was the right thing for Russia” when invading Ukraine, although he countered “like a lot of business people we make a mistake from time to time.”

Ecclestone has been involved with F1 since the 1950s including revolutionizing its sports rights, and he is currently Chairman Emeritus of the Formula One Group, having stepped down as CEO five years ago.

He went on to criticize Zelensky, the man leading the fight against Putin’s Russian invasion, which took place more than four months ago.

“The other person in Ukraine [Zelensky] used to be a comedian and I think he seems as if he wants to continue that profession,” added Ecclestone. “If he’d have thought about things he’d have made a bigger effort to speak to Putin, who’s a sensible person and would have listened to him and done something about it.”

Ecclestone, who was arrested in Brazil last month for illegally carrying a gun while boarding a private plane, also had time to slam the U.S. for “liking wars because they sell a lot of arms,” all to the dismay of the presenters who struggled to interrupt him. :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

It’s most unfortunate that the West had amassed the biggest number of losers in power at any given moment in its history, leading to the sad state we are in today.

Russia is a wonderful country with a wonderful leader that had so much to offer the West, but we’re too stupid to appreciate them.

We go out of our way to house and protect uneducated peasants from the Sahara who cross here illegally and are nothing but a burden to society, and we treat the nation that supplied us with precious energy and minerals at bargain prices, like they are the plaque!

We’ve got our priorities in total disorder and have completely lost our minds, and this much stupidity cannot possibly end well.
