After Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to assist his friend in Syria, President Bashar al-assad, the scenario of the Syrian Civil War changed. By sending Russian Air Force and then Russian Special Operations Forces to Syrian soil to fight deadly terrorism of ISIS/Daesh it changes the faces of the war forever. Russian Air Force's continuous bombing on ISIS positions created devastating situations and forced those inhumane terrorists to pull back! Putin's intervention into Syrian war significantly reduced Daesh's mass killing of innocent civilians across Syria and Iraqi territories this terrorist group captured.


Firslty Russians cleared forward areas those were in ISIS capture and then compelled them to pull back. While Syrian Arab Army holds some ground Russia intensified the air strikes which created havocs for ISIS! They broke the supply chain of ISIS, curtail arms supply and finally made them to gather in holes that Russian fighter jets and Spec Ops Force Spetsnaz along with SyAA can smash these terrorists group forever.

However, most of the western leaders and mainstream media made, and still, crocodiles' tears by shouting that Russians targeting innocent civilians who're not supporting Bashar al-Assad. Kremlin didn't hear it but, proved it that CIA-Mossad-Saudi nexus created and keep alive ISIS and oither Syrian terrorists groups to topple Assad. In fact, Turkey was dealing it with great eagerness to see Assad ousted and handling the whole matter from behind the curtain.

Although, whose are behind ISIS, it's now smashed to death! Definitely credits goes to Putin's Russia! Toppling plan for Assad is now dead but very recently Saudi Foreign Minister al-Jubeir said that Plan-B to oust Assad will be implemented! To whom he threw the threat, we all know! We must wait and see what happens next!

Russia just conducted a flight test of a revolutionary hypersonic glide vehicle for the purpose of delivering nuclear or conventional warheads penetrating highly advanced missile defenses systems.


The test firing of the hypersonic glider took place from eastern 
Russia involving the launch of an SS-19 intercontinental ballistic missile. Russia’s state-run Interfax news agency confirmed the test on Thursday.

Pentagon spokeswoman agrees the news but declined to comment on. Only two tests are known about this new hypersonic glider while the first test took place last year.

China and the United States also are developing hypersonic missiles, both gliders and jet-powered vehicles that travel at extreme speeds.

China has conducted six tests of its DF-ZF hypersonic glider. A U.S. Army hypersonic missile blew up shortly after launch in August 2014.  The Pentagon also is developing a scramjet-powered hypersonic weapon.

Hypersonic missiles are being developed to defeat increasingly sophisticated missile defenses. The weapons are designed for use in rapid, long-range strikes.

Vladimir Putin Attended Victory Day Parade 2016 At Red Square, Moscow

Victory Day marks Germany’s surrender to the Soviet Union in 1945. It became the end of the Great Patriotic War for the USSR, which lost about 25 million citizens in the four years of fighting. Interestingly, until its 20th anniversary (May 9, 1965), Victory Day was not a major holiday, unlike, for instance, May 1, and was considered a work day. 
Apart from the anniversaries in 1965 and 1985, Victory Day celebrations in the Soviet Union did not feature a military parade. This tradition started in 1995. In October 2012, Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree that would extend the Victory Day Celebrations from Thursday, May 9, 2013 to Sunday, May 12, 2013.

Russian Sukhoi Jet Down Made Turkish President 'Saddened'

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday expressed "sadness" over Turkey's downing of a Russian warplane that has severely strained relations, saying he wished the incident had never happened.
In his most conciliatory comments yet after Tuesday's incident, Erdogan said: "I'm really saddened by the incident. We wish it had never happened, but it happened. I hope something like this doesn't happen again.

"We hope that the issue between us and Russia does not escalate any further, become corrosive and have dire consequences in the future," Erdogan told supporters in western Balikesir province.

Erdogan also renewed a call to Russian President Vladimir Putin for a face-to-face meeting in Paris on the sidelines of the Global Climate Summit on Monday, saying it would be an opportunity to restore relations.

"What we tell Russia is 'Let's resolve this issue between ourselves and within its boundaries. Let's not make others happy by destroying our whole relationship," Erdogan said.

"Russia is important for Turkey as much as Turkey is important for Russia. Both countries cannot afford to give up on each other."

Putin, who has branded the incident a "stab in the back", is yet to agree to talks.

The plane incident, one of the most serious clashes between a NATO member and Russia, has drawn a harsh response from Moscow.

Russia announced it was halting a visa-free regime for Turkish visitors, after threatening a raft of retaliatory economic measures to punish the NATO member state.

Earlier Saturday, Turkish foreign ministry warned its citizens off non-urgent and unnecessary travel to Russia.

Turkey says the Su-24 warplane strayed into its airspace and ignored repeated warnings, but Russia has insisted it did not cross the border from Syria and demanded an apology.

Russia Sends 7,000 Troops To Turkish Border As US Halt Air Operations

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued orders to deploy nearly 7,000 troops, anti-aircraft, rocket launchers, and artillery forces to the Turkish border, and for them to be in readiness for full combat. 

The Ministry of Defense say the legal authorisation for this deployment comes from the joint Russian-Armenian missile air defense system agreement signed by Putin on 11th November.

Whatdoesitmean.com reports:

With Armenia now becoming a vital part of the Russian Joint Air Defense, this report continues, Federation military forces will now be able to counter threats from Turkey coming from that nations western border—which will mirror the air defense protections provided by Federation Aerospace and Naval forces on Turkey’s border with Syria that since being implemented this past week have seen both United States and Turkish aircraft completely cease flying missions against Islamic State terrorists in this war zone all together.

Important to note too about this Federation military deployment to Armenia, this report says, are that these forces will be protected, like their counterparts operating in Syria, with S-400 Triumf (NATO designation: SA-21 Growler) medium/long-range mobile surface-to-air missile systems and Krasukha-4 jamming platforms giving them near total air defense superiority over 85 percent of Turkish territory.

Putin lifts ban on delivery of S-300 missile systems to Iran

The Russian president has repealed the ban prohibiting the delivery of S-300 missile air defense systems to Iran, according to the Kremlin’s press service. The ban was introduced by former President Dmitry Medvedev in 2010.


“[The presidential] decree lifts the ban on transit through Russian territory, including airlift, and the export from the Russian Federation to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and also the transfer to the Islamic Republic of Iran outside the territory of the Russian Federation, both by sea and by air, of air defense missile systems S-300,” says the information note accompanying the document, RIA Novosti reported.

The decree enters into force upon the president’s signature.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov commented on the decision, saying that Moscow’s voluntary embargo on S-300 deliveries was no longer necessary, due to the progress in Iran’s nuclear talks made in Lausanne on April 2.

During the talks in Switzerland, the P5+1 group have made “substantial progress in resolving the Iranian nuclear program,” Lavrov said. “The political framework of the final deal agreed upon was highly praised by the international community.”


He added: “We believe that at this stage there is no longer need for this kind of embargo – from the Russian side it was unilateral and voluntary.”

The foreign minister also said: “Meanwhile, a modern air defense system is now very relevant to Iran, especially taking into account the severe escalation of tensions in neighboring areas and especially the rapid development of military activity in Yemen in recent weeks.”

Lavrov added that the S-300 is an air defense missile system, which is of a purely defensive nature. It is not designed for attacks and “will not put at risk the security of any state in the region, including Israel,”he said.


Iran’s defense minister said on Monday that Russia’s decision will boost cooperation with Moscow and could help regional stability.

US Secretary of State John Kerry raised concerns with Lavrov over Russia’s decision, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said on Monday. He added that Russia’s decision to start an oil-for-goods swap could also raise sanctions concerns.

Commenting on Russia’s move, US State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said on Monday that US officials do not think this would affect the major powers’ unity in ongoing nuclear talks. She added that Russian deliveries of the S-300 would not violate Iranian sanctions imposed by the UN Security Council.

Israel has denounced Russia’s decision to lift the ban on providing S-300 missiles to Iran.

“This is a direct result of the legitimacy that Iran is receiving from the nuclear deal that is being prepared, and proof that the Iranian economic growth which follows the lifting of sanctions will be exploited for arming itself and not for the welfare of the Iranian people,” Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz said in a statement on Monday.

The contract for supplying S-300 missile systems to Iran was signed in 2007 and implied the delivery of five S-300 squadrons worth $800 million. But in 2010 the contract was put on hold due to the UN imposing sanctions on Iran.

Tehran answered with filing a nearly $4 billion lawsuit against Russia’s Rosoboron export arms dealer company to a Geneva arbitration tribunal.

The question of S-300 supply to Tehran remained unsettled for years.

After years of negotiation, in February 2015, Moscow offered Tehran the chance to buy its latest Antey-2500 anti-aircraft and ballistic missile system, instead of the older S-300 system. Iran replied that it would consider the offer.

The last time Russia supplied S-300 systems abroad was in 2010, when 15 squadrons were delivered to China.

Since then production of S-300 systems has been suspended as the main producer of the Russian air defenses, concern Almaz-Antey, has launched production of the next generation systems, S-400. China has become the first country allowed to buy S-400 systems, Rosoboronexport chief Anatoly Isaykin told the Russian media.

As of today, S-300 systems have been operable in a number of countries, including Algeria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Cyprus, Kazakhstan and Vietnam. There is a valid contract to deliver S-300 systems to Syria, but it was put on hold after the beginning of the civil war in the country.

NSA fails to get iron grip on Crimea, surveillance agencies shamed

The so-called 'surveillance superpower' has overlooked the Crimea. The US government has a hold over major political figures in the world thanks to the NSA surveillance programs, yet still it failed to understand that Vladimir Putin will do everything in his power not to let the peninsula slip out of his hands. What was the ultimate mistake of the American intelligence? - the Western experts and media are trying to guess. Russian political scientists and intelligence experts try to explain the reasons why Washington was so inattentive in an interview to the Voice of Russia.

The Supreme Council of Crimea adopted Tuesday the Declaration of Independence and expressed the intention to join Russia. Now all we have to do is to wait for the referendum on March 16. If the majority of the Crimea citizens will vote for this decision, the necessary documents will go straight from Simferopol to Moscow. The officials promise to do their job without any delay.
The reaction of the new self-proclaimed Kiev authorities is predictable and thus not subject to further discussion, it is the US reaction that may be of concern here. The US President Barack Obama issues statements that can be summarized as ‘won’t let, won’t forgive, sanctions are imminent’ on a daily basis. Even some of their younger European partners disagree with such fierce statements. Especially since many of them have a valid question - where were you before, Mr. President, with your all-powerful NSA? “The United States, the country with the most advanced tracking and surveillance system, is unaware of what is happening in the rest of the world,” Michele Zurleni of the Italian newspaper Panorama says.

Here are the events as presented by the author. February 27, a few hours after the creation of the interim government in Kiev, Vladimir Putin announces a ‘sudden operability test’. Some 150.000 people are engaged in the exercise near the western Russian border. On the same day in Washington, Republican Mike Rogers, Chairman of the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, receives a report from the NSA Director’s Office. Its essence in a nutshell is as follows – Putin is bluffing. The next day, a new pro-Russian government is formed in the Crimea, paramilitary forces control airports and surround Ukrainian military bases. Putin makes the first move, while the White House has no choice but to hobble, trying to catch up with the swift actions of the Kremlin leader, the author says.

Five days later, the United States began to wonder why the government was caught by surprise. Officials were talking about sluggish Obama's policy towards Putin, blame the whole US intelligence community, agencies leadership, bureaucrats and experts. Few remember that this is not the first time the all-powerful intelligence services were embarrassed, the Head of the Center for Public Policy Research Vladimir Evseev says.

"Apparently, they considered it a bluff. The fact that Russia is not perceived as an equal partner undermines the efforts of the US intelligence community. Exaggerating their capabilities and reconnaissance assets, the US naturally fell into this trap. There was a clear underestimation of the resources that Moscow had, the whole situation was miscalculated. Russian special forces proved they can work in the information war setting and under global surveillance carried out by the United States."

Recent technological breakthroughs and the up to the minute equipment had a side effect. It appears that the US analysts have forgotten the basics of intelligence work, relying solely on gadgets, Head of the Inforus consortium Andrey Masalovich says.

"For many years the intelligence practice had been facing a major stumbling block, the lack of means to get access to the raw data, such as wiretapping conversations, interception of electronic communications, access to databases, covert surveillance. When finally people invented technical devices that could help them in solving these problems, the intelligence agents were overwhelmed with exultation. A huge reservoir of data emerged out of the blue, and most intelligent services started to forget that there was one more vital part of the work – the analysis of large databases. The agent’s task is not just to tell who said what, but to provide an overview of what is happening, what are the expectations, and how can our actions be affected by the opposing side. Nowadays few draw their attention to this kind of analytical work."

Vladimir Putin does not speak about his strategy on a cell phone, nor he uses Facebook or Twitter, says a former CIA agent and author of books and articles on Langley, Robert Baer. An old CIA would try to gain an informant tried in Kremlin’s military apparatus. But those were different times. It is quite obvious that the digital surveillance programs were useless in this case, Baer says. Having started its Ukraine operation, the West suddenly discovered that Putin has a counter plan. A pity they had no idea what this plan was about. The analytical wing is fully responsible for this: the US intelligence services have unlimited access to information, and yet they have repeatedly failed to become omnipotent.

Russia Conducts Live Fire Exercises in Baltic: Tension Rises Worldwide

(RIA Novosti) – Russian naval warships and coastal troops conducted live fire exercises Monday in the country’s western Kaliningrad and Leningrad Regions, a Ministry of Defense spokesperson said. 
 
Russia Conducts Live Fire Exercises in Baltic
The exercises, part of a combat readiness test ordered by President Vladimir Putin last week, come amid a growing international crisis as evidence mounts that Russian troops have been deployed across Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula.

Putin visited the Kirillovsky training ground near St. Petersburg Monday afternoon to personally oversee the final stage of the snap check involving an airdrop mission by paratroopers. But the mission had to be cancelled because of a blizzard. 
 
Sergei Shoigu, Vladimir Putin
A spokesman for the Western Military District, which borders Ukraine, said that a broad range of weapons systems, including ground troops, tanks, and naval artillery and air defense missiles, took part in the Baltic Fleet exercises.

The Baltic Fleet units engaged dummy air, sea and land targets simulating enemy forces, including tanks, aircraft and submarines.

Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu earlier said the snap inspections of more than 150,000 troops of western and northern military units were not connected with events in Ukraine. The drills were scheduled to end Monday.

Russian General Staff’s Deputy Chief Resigns – Report (05.02.2014)

MOSCOW, February 5 (RIA Novosti) – A senior Russian military official who oversaw international cooperation resigned because of a conflict with the new chief of the General Staff, the Kommersant newspaper said Wednesday. The resignation of General Alexander Postnikov, 57, was tendered in late 2013 and recently approved by President Vladimir Putin, the daily said, citing Kremlin sources.

Alexander Postnikov
No official confirmation was available as of Wednesday morning. As the General Staff’s deputy chief, Postnikov handled the Russian military command’s interactions with NATO, including regarding the controversial US missile defense shield, the report said. He also was involved in transferring Syrian chemical weapons to international control. Postnikov was on the Russian delegation at talks on the issue between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and his US counterpart, John Kerry, in Geneva last October.

Postnikov quit because of tensions with the incumbent chief of General Staff, Valery Gerasimov, at the job since late 2012, the report said. Postnikov was a protégé of Gerasimov’s predecessor, Nikolai Makarov, sacked by Putin along with Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov in a reshuffle of military leadership that followed a large-scale corruption scandal. An aide of Postnikov was last year implicated in the scandal, which involved the allegedly unlawful sale of military property. Serdyukov is currently battling graft allegations, but unlike the minister, Postnikov has never been personally linked to any corruption schemes.
