Storm Shadow missiles, a name that exudes power and stealth, may have struck a ‘secret’ Russian air defense base in Crimea. The mere thought of such precision strikes invokes a sense of awe and intrigue. It’s no wonder that the Storm Shadows rarely disappoint, as they are reserved for verified targets backed by credible intelligence. Ukraine’s claim of hitting this base with Storm Shadow missiles seems believable, considering their track record.
But what are Storm Shadow missiles exactly? The name alone sparks curiosity and fascination. Their use in uncovering ‘secret’ bases, such as the one in Crimea, showcases their effectiveness and precision.… Continue reading
As I read about the recent reports stating that the Kremlin has accused Ukraine of targeting forces in Crimea with U.S.-made mobile missiles, I can’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction at the thought of Ukraine defending its territory against invaders. It’s like watching a underdog stand up to a bully – a David and Goliath situation where the little guy refuses to back down.

This kind of appeasement and capitulation to a dictator like Putin is not only dangerous but also morally reprehensible.… Continue reading
As a German with an understanding of the Russian mindset, the recent uproar in Moscow over the so-called ‘plot’ to bomb the Crimean bridge has left me both amused and slightly puzzled. The reaction from Maria Zakharova, demanding an explanation from Germany and insinuating guilt without actual evidence, seems like a typical move from the Kremlin playbook. The headline itself, suggesting a German plot, is nothing but an exaggeration. The conversation among German generals was simply discussing possibilities and potential targets, not hatching a devious scheme to blow up the bridge.
The fact that the discussion took place over a web call, covering sensitive topics, is indeed a cause for concern.… Continue reading
