The US bombing of Iran, as reported by Reuters, apparently began with a significant deception. A fleet of B-2 bombers, supposedly originating from Missouri, embarked on a mission that involved a carefully orchestrated diversion. While the intended target was clear, the route and even the number of bombers involved were cleverly obscured.
This elaborate maneuver involved a group of bombers seemingly heading west towards Guam, their transponders active, broadcasting their presence almost openly. This feint drew considerable attention and speculation online, with some observers debating the bombers’ true origin and purpose. Meanwhile, another group of bombers, unseen and unheard, quietly flew east, maintaining radio silence for a remarkable 18 hours while en route to Iran.… Continue reading
To bolster Ukraine’s defenses against Russia, the UK military is supplying realistic decoys of tanks and air defense systems. These printed models, designed to mimic actual weaponry, are strategically deployed to create the illusion of greater UK arms shipments. This deception tactic aims to deplete Russian resources by targeting inexpensive fakes rather than real military hardware. The initiative involves collaboration between the Ministry of Defence and industry, producing highly convincing decoys difficult to distinguish from genuine equipment at typical engagement ranges. This approach, employed alongside similar strategies by Ukraine and Russia, is now considered a crucial aspect of modern warfare.

In a rare public rebuke, Iranian Brigadier General Behrouz Esbati accused Russia of misleading Iran about its military actions in Syria, claiming that Russian airstrikes targeted empty deserts instead of Syrian rebels. Esbati, a senior commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, partially blamed Russia for the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s government, citing this deception and Russia’s alleged inaction during Israeli strikes. He also highlighted internal Syrian corruption as a contributing factor. These accusations, while unverified, represent a significant departure from Iran’s official stance and reveal strained relations between Tehran and Moscow.

Bild journalist Julian Röpcke posits that the November 21st Dnipro missile strike utilized a modified, non-explosive RS-26 Rubezh missile, citing video evidence of submunitions lacking explosions. Röpcke suggests the minimal damage supports the claim of a propaganda act rather than a military one. This contradicts some Western and Ukrainian assessments identifying the missile as a nuclear-capable ICBM, although the Kremlin confirmed the use of a different missile type. The conflicting reports highlight the difficulty in definitively identifying the weapon used.

As I sit back and ponder the recent revelations from Britain regarding Russia’s exaggerated strength of forces, I can’t help but feel a sense of validation in my long-held suspicions. The facade of Russia’s military might has been shattered, revealing a hollow core unable to deliver on the bravado and bluster that it projected onto the world stage. The stark reality of their ineptitude and incompetency has been laid bare for all to see.
The knee-jerk reaction of resorting to nuclear threats when faced with criticism or opposition only serves to highlight the insecurity and desperation that permeates the Russian military establishment.… Continue reading
The Russian claims that the Crimean Bridge was attacked by 12 ATACMS missiles on the night of August 15-16 have sparked a lot of skepticism and disbelief. Personally, I find it hard to wrap my head around the idea that they managed to intercept 12 missiles without providing any evidence to support their statement. The lack of photos or videos showcasing this supposed interception only adds to the doubt surrounding this claim.
The target of the attack is also up for debate, as many believe that the bridge itself was not the intended target. With the track record of the Kremlin being less than transparent, it’s difficult to trust their version of events.… Continue reading
