>>54825629
Russian airspace? There isn't such thing as russian airspace.

>>54825629
Just because he thinks it doesn't exist doesn't mean he can just freely fly around in it with his bombers.
this is exactly like saying "Russian Crimea? there is no such thing as Russian Crimea, it never existed"

>>54825629
Airspace of a NATO member is a NATO airspace. What's so hard to understand?

>>54825629
Ok, now i actually read the article.
>"the 29th of January, another Russian combat airplane violated Turkish—and NATO—airspace,” the State Department’s John Kirby said, echoing word for word his colleague from the Pentagon."

>"Mr. Kirby declined the offer to provide any proof of the Turkey airspace violation by Russian bomber. “It’s not our responsibility to provide proof to the Russians for something they did wrong,” he said to the RT reporter."(that means thry don't have any proof, not even radar or satellite records)

The articles goes on to some russian official saying they won't discuss this with NATO, just with the country that claims violation.

>>54825995
>It’s not our responsibility to provide proof to the Russians for something they did wrong
Love this approach

Funny how every citizen here doesn't actually care about NATO and Russia's little bitchfights.
Russians do suck shit though so I can understand why NATO doesn't like them by default.

>>54826314
It literally isn't.

>>54826738
Does your judicial system also grab random people from the street and makes them prove they're not criminals?

>>54826793
Memes convinced the world that demanding proof is gommunism.

>>54826793
Their police system can shoot and kill you for literally nothing

>>54825629

They're just arguing semantics, because Russia is like that.

There technically isn't any NATO airspace. NATO is not a sovereign entity.

>>54826982
but in russia every random killing by the regime is entirely justified!

>>54825629
There isn't.

>>54827036
No, that was 20 years ago. Today they're much more expensive

Can you explain how there is such a thing as NATO airspace?

Nothing new here. Russians are always trying to force other countries to deal with their shit bilaterally instead of through alliances or unions since they have more leverage that way.

See kidnapping an estonian to use as a bartering chip for prisoner exchange or threatening to let tens of thousands of shitskins migrants across the finnish/russian border unless funland stops being part of the EU sanctions.

Sasuga mafia state.

>>54827165
Angry much, Abdullah?

>>54826793
I love how Russians expect countries to be very trusting towards their former enemy, as if they aren't spying in the West all the time.
But that's Russian ignorance for you.

>>54825982
>Airspace of a NATO member is a NATO airspace.
Airspace of a UN member state is the UN airspace.

There's no such thing as NATO airspace because isn't a sovereign entity.

Have turkish jets flying over Athens or greek jets flying over Istanbul and see what happens.

>>54827384
Oh yes. Sad.

>>54827080
>Nato consists of many countries, each country has an airpsace
Is it true that an airplane of any country which is a NATO member can freely fly in the NATO airspace over another NATO member?

I guess they still have to ask for permission.

Kek. Good one.

>>54827080
Still no NATO airspace in existence, maybe during war when Joint Warfare Centre and other NATO bases take control over the war effort.

But there's no NATO airspace, our jets can't suddenly fly wherever they want over other NATO members airspace.
The Turks are violating Greece's airspace all the time, and is a legitimate problem right now.
They're both NATO members.

>this delusion

The US sent some officers from the military to Ukraine to help them train and structure their military against an Russian enemy.
Instead it was the officers that learned how the Russians fight.
The whole VHF specter is jammed 24/7 by the Russians, the main frequency specter most military grade radios in NATO use.
They also bomb anything that even remotely looks like an antenna based on visual or EK scans.

The Russians are a force to be reckoned with.
Those who say otherwise are delusional leftists, or right wing desktop warriors.
Anyone who've served in a NATO country in Europe or America knows this for a fact.

If he's autsistic it doesn't change his argument comparing a military alliance to the UN is like comparing a chicken and an apple.

>>54829521
so what exactly was your point earlier about bombing a village

>>54829405
Russia wanted to stop turkey's plans for safe zoning northern syria by having a presence close to the border, turks blow up jet to counter

>>54827538
>Donetsk and Lugansk were an unforeseen side-effect
It was for seen due to Russian speaking media and an army if Bydlo irregulars who felt confident after Crimea.

NATO collectively disagrees. And because NATO would BTFO of Russia if they ever came to blows I'd say NATO wins

>>54829570
that all the people that looted the pilot's body are dead

>>54829648
Well he's saying that you're not going to have to deal with looters, the body will likely be disintegrated in seconds or at the very least blown to bits

>>54828413
Actually a frequency specter and a frequency band are two different things.
But yes you're retarded if you think that fact alone isn't something that makes the Russian military a force to be reckoned with, typical desktop warriors.

You can have all the firepower in the world, but if you can't coordinate how to use said firepower it will all become useless.
Russians are masters when it comes to disinformation and information/communication denial.

It must also be noted the fact that Russians so easily can jam radio frequencies and have been able so for many years, one can only imagine what other electronic hardware they can fuck up.

I love this meme so much.

Its as if you think NATO has some sort of god defense against Nukes that make all of us completely invulnerable to them.

If NATO went to war with China/Russia everyone would be fucked thanks to handy dandy Mutually Assured Destruction. The only thing that has stopped us from having more world wars.

>>54829702
back in the beginning of the 90s russians were blocking frequency bands where western radio was being broadcast... it took a man with rudimentary radio-engineering knowledge, a soldering iron and about two beers to build a decoder good enough to listen into and tape broadcasts

your perceived value of their frequency jamming is too high

>>54829817
So they wouldn't cutoff booze, interesting. Side note destroying that cheese was beyond retarded for the govt. They should have given it to the poor or homeless.

This is not a judicial system, this is the cold calculus of force.

And how does it apply when there was no airspace breach but there were accusations?

>>54830535
Radars can determine very well if Russians breach the airspace.

>>54830535
It matters not one bit because your plane is still blown the fuck up. All that matters is what Turkey thinks occured. Don't fly so close and maybe they won't think that way next time.

Lesson learned.

>>54829702
Jamming is risky business if your opponent has home-on-jam weapons. The tactics one uses against one opponent aren't necessarily viable against another.

>>54830859

Let's hope that your military leaders aren't as retarded as you are.
Because if I had any power, I would petition to throw Estland out of NATO if that weren't the case.

You think this is cold war era technology, and there's absolutely no way to evolve it and make it more potent.

Also you disregarded my other point I made about communication denial the Russians do.
Bombing the fuck out of anything looking like, or acts like an antenna, please tell me your drunk countrymen from the 90's contingency plan for that kind of action.

It's clear that you have no insight in how wars and military works at all, just stop pretending you have knowledge about it and just shitpost about potatoes and muslims instead

Luckily Russia can't do precision bombing, so no worries about them hitting an antenna. They might hit civilian buildings and kindergartens.

>>54831195
That's how this works irl, it has nothing to do with being hard on the internet.

Reality is if you fly a nuclear capable bomber, into a countries airspace, they will shoot it down. There is no fucking court room they need to go to to prove you were in their airspace. If they feel threatened, they will shoot you.

Because the cold war started again in 2007, everybody was all happy and getting along up to that point.

But no, the kikes can't have a happy homogenous society so they force conflict where conflict isn't needed.

90% of all the military might in NATO isn't even on European soil thanks to our politicians in Europe.
NATO in Europe has no air superiority without USA, the eastern block has no airforce to speak of and rely on the already small airforce from other European NATO countries.

This is something we all should be perfectly clear about, NATO only works as an idea.
It has never been tested, and article 5 is very vague on what constitutes as an response.
Article 5 does not by any means say how much each country shall contribute when article 5 is invoked or how fast the response should be.

Also in a war with Russia, Estonia and most of eastern Europe(including eastern parts of Poland) will be lost seeing as those countries has no capabilities(except Poland) and will be accepted as losses to ensure rest of Europe isn't lost.

point is, airspace violations are dealt nation-to nation, not nation-to-military block. it has been the case for decades, it has been the case all these recent years. when a US plane violates Swedish airspace it's not a NATO issue, when U-2 violated Soviet airspace it wasn't a Warshw pact issue, when Russia violated Estonian airspace the last time, it wasn't a NATO issue, whne Russia violated Turkish airspace a few times just before shootdown, Davutoglu stated that the situation was resolved calmly between the two countries.

Now NATO officials, frustrated as always with having literally nothing to do want to make it seem like they're still useful. It's a non-issue, there's really no such thing as NATO airspace

IIRC European NATO has a slightly larger airforce than Russia

However, much of the Russian air force is ancient Soviet shit and much of European NATO (the smaller countries) is ancient American shit or Soviet shit

So it comes down to who has the less shit.

>>54832792

I think you're overestimating Russia. All European Nato members together have more than twice the number of combat aircraft of Russia. And most of them are superior to the Russian equipment in a 1-v-1 comparison. So, yes, Nato has always air superiority. Even without the US.

I was generalising. A few of the smaller countries have a decent air force.

Also the Tornado is neither American nor Soviet, it's ancient but GOOD European shit. Also the Tornado is being replaced by multi-role Typhoons and F-35s.

We are getting 160 Typhoons + 138 F-35s so the RAF is actually expanding AND increasing in quality

>>54833100
Yes, true, but Russia would also find it difficult to penetrate far in European air space. The strongest Euro countries are further from Russia.

Having said that, I've thought for a while that our main weakness is defending against long-range missiles.

In the Top 10 largest air forces from 2014 only two European NATO members got on the list: Germany and Turkey.
Germany is the only country you can count on, since Turkey will by their location alone not be able to delegate many of those planes.
They are on the wrong side of Europe and will most likely have they own problems with the middle east, and Russia pressuring them from the black sea.

Also any country bordering with Russia or are located close to Russia, like Norway and Turkey would be forced to focus on their countries alone through fear of being invaded, even though Russia might focus solely on continental Europe.

>>54833344
yeah, with Russia able to launch x-101s and the like from basically any direction, and with Kalibrs on a dozen small hard-to detect subs, Europe is very vulnerable, while only European Russia is vulnerable to whatever Europe has to offer.

>>54832729
The enemy is primarily within America. No one wins in a nuclear war but that is all the traitors seem to be pushing for, soo much harder than ever before.

It is so much worse than the Cold War before, because even our government won't admit its a cold war and our media at best just calls it 'us being in 'competition' with Russia.'

Another reason this is so much worse than the cold war is because NATO never succeeded in overthrowing a member nation of the USSR until the very end. NATO and the kikes have already overthrown Ukraine and are doing very good at dividing Syria between an East and West where all signs are pointing to them planning on undermining Russian gas/oil to Europe.

If you don't secure Syria soon, you are going to be forced into fully committing a land invasion, and with Turkey so close by that will be just fun for you to secure the Northern border, where I'm sure that NATO will demand a DMZ just big enough for a pipeline if they fail in making a 'Democratic Republic of Syria'.

If Russia had actually done something wrong in this entire scenario then I wouldn't care nor would a lot of other individuals. Its the fact that Soros funded an overthrow of Ukraine to obviously undermine Russia, and the Fact that for the 3rd fucking time some 'murderous genocidal dictator' decided to go full fucking retard and 'Use chemical weapons to slaughter 1400 innocent people in Damascus'. When any person with any ounce of intellect would see through the crystal clear bullshit of it and that NO ONE is that fucking stupid to repeat the precursor to 2 of their neighbors collapsing/being invaded/Overthrown.

The AfD is sponsored by the Russian intelligence service. So take a guess. Putin has rightly identified Germany as Euope's linchpin nation and is trying everything he can to break up the European Union by sabotaging Merkel's attempt to hold it together. Which is why she could really use more support. Especially the refugee crisis has proven as Putin's most potent weapon. It's no coincidence that Russia started a huge bombing campaign against Aleppo the day before the peace talks were to start. Putin wants to maximize the refugees which is why he bombs civilians instead if ISIS.

But if Europe leaves Germany alone with the refugee problem, Germany will eventually have to close its borders. This will be the end of Schengen and essentially the end of Europe as we know it.

You're absolutely right. I agree with this completely. Except that Merkel's current position needs to change.

She must stop inviting the refugees into Europe. The EU's borders must be effectively guarded from migrants, and instead we should take the refugees directly from around Syria. Inviting people to journey through Europe is dangerous and wrong. It helps the wrong kind of people including the smugglers.

>But if Europe leaves Germany alone with the refugee problem, Germany will eventually have to close its borders.
It's a problem that Germany created with the open door policy. This policy needs to change, only then can the EU take a united position. Which should be:

Guard the borders of the EU
Take in refugees direct from source

This is also more humane, as it helps the vulnerable instead of the 80% young men who make the journey

>>54834536
Merkel doesn't represent anyone but Germany. She needs to shut the fuck up.

>>54834876
>Figures like that are essentually worthless
You are completely wrong on this point, they are the main indicators of how large a segment of the population is willing to fight before the fight actually begins. Higher willingness = higher morale. It is not saying that a people won't retaliate if someone comes and hurts them directly and you'd be mistaken to think that.

>America's public was stronlgy isolationist before Pearl Harbor
Strongly isolationist doesn't mean pacifistic, they just felt that getting involved in the problems of the old world was going to be more trouble than it was worth.

What would Russia get out of invading Baltic states, Belarus or anything else in that region?

How about not taking any of them in at all and forcing them to go back and fix it? They will only cause more problems and decrease the quality of life for the average citizens and the (too many) immigrants already here.

But that is Merkel's position. She said we have to guard our external borders, especially the water borders in order to keep Schengen. She is trying to rally Europe to help Greece with its border problems and to pay Turkey to better control its border. And the rest of Europe is like "meh, us paying? No that's a job for Germany alone"

Her statement about not sending Syrians back that she did in late August may have been problematic, but by that date the big influx was already underway. And the journey takes 4 weeks. So nothing until late September can be attributed to her statement. That's just an excuse. pic related.
She said that to take pressure from the vulnerable periphery. And it worked. But it's not a permanent solution. For that we need all of Europe.

Belarus, Finland, and to a lesser degree, Sweden, could be invaded for the same reason to invade Ukraine; don't move West, and if you do, your country will be a shitpile and Europe won't want to touch you with a ten-foot pole.

NATO itself being attacked is much less likely, but the Baltics have always been a weak link. If the belief in Russia is that NATO is all bark and no bite, and a swift, decisive invasion could shatter it, it remains something to worry about.

You know as well as me that the European Commission would take ages to do anything. It's a consequence of Europe's democratic deficit that the member state's leaders do indeed matter much in deciding the direction of European politics.

Russia will never in a million years attack Germany because America has nuclear weapons there, so comparing the pre-pearl harbour USA and 2016 Germany is going to prove nothing whatsoever.

My point is that any kind of war between Russians and say Balts, Romanians or Poles would not result in any kind of military intervention by Germany because it is totally counter to it's own interests to do that. Sure, there would be an unprecedented deepening of the sanctions regime against Russia and maybe even some analogue to the USSR's expulsion from the LoN, but there is no way that there would be a war over this.

>>54835779
But what list have you even been reading? Some YouTube "Top 10" put together by a 10-year-old?

You must have been living under a rock for the last few decades. Germany's military is literally falling to pieces due to government under funding. Its government never EVER gets involved in any military confrontations. To say they've got a better air force than the UK and France and (even more laughably) that they're the only ones you can count on is just downright retarded on a colossal scale.

From what I've read, it was an old mindset of the Soviets during the Cold War that NATO was fractious, and ultimately weak, bound more by fear of Russia than common ideals. The idea was that NATO, built upon a decadent societal model, was too soft to make war with the Pact, and would crack given enough pressure.

It's quite telling that the Russian concept of "nuclear de-escalation", that of using a small strike of nuclear weapons to stop a war, doesn't exist in the West. We have no equivalent, since we don't believe that limited, shocking use of nukes can dissuade our enemies. But if you believe the enemy lacks constitution, it makes perfect sense.

There's a difference between migrants and refugees. When she said in early 2015 to that little girl that Germany can't take everybody in that was true and referred to migrants. Her statement of late August only mentioned Syrians. What people think whether they have a chance depends much more on the rumors that traffickers spread in the countries of origin to increase demand for their services. Our embassies have been campaigning against those rumors for months now. But it's hard fighting the mafia of all of the Balkans, Turkey, parts of Africa and central Asia.

But, still, we need more hep from Europe. If the rest of Europe continues to believe it's just a German problem, this will blow up in our faces. And then it will become everybody's problem very quickly.

The people across MENA don't listen to every word of the speech, it doesn't matter. What matters is interpretation. This is why Merkel must make it EXPLICIT and it must come from here, no one will give a toss what the embassies say. Furthermore there must be a cap, for Germany's own sake, the country can't cope with unlimited immigration.

>But, still, we need more hep from Europe. If the rest of Europe continues to believe it's just a German problem, this will blow up in our faces. And then it will become everybody's problem very quickly.
It is already everyone's problem. Look at Italy and France for example. Some of the people in Paris attacks came as "refugees"

The German military lacks the capacity to do anything to Russia and it is in that state because of a clueless public and legislators that are interested in slashing it's budgets. Any kind of declaration of war by Germany would be suicidal given the state of the country right now.

I'm thinking that it will take at least 10-20 years of goal oriented, pro-military governance to get the German army to a state where it can be truly powerful on an international scale and the push to do so would only come from a wider European war.

Why do you keep pitting germany against russia alone?

>>54836476
She can't declare a cap without having a European solution first as it would put the pressure back on the vulnerable periphery again. If she did, Europe would fail. And everybody would wish to only have the problems of today, including France and Italy.

It took Hitler SIX years to build up a military that LOST against Britain (before fighting Russia) and LOST against Russia

You aren't making your case.

To be completely fair, Communism and Socialism is the greatest nation building force on the entire planet for undeveloped nations. It only starts to really suck when you try to become completely dependent on it as an economic ideology

>>54838448

What the hell is your case? The Nazis LOST against those powers and they LOST that territory in Europe. It's not hard to "challenge" a strong power with a short burst military build up, the hard part is to WIN. You're advertising a regime that was great at losing. You're stupid.

>To be completely fair, Communism and Socialism is the greatest nation building force on the entire planet for undeveloped nations
Yep, you're really fucking stupid

>major defeat and a crucial turning point
Calling it a crucial turning point is just blatant biased editing, since ther was no way for Germany to actually follow up and conquer Britain even if it destroyed the whole RAF. Operation Sealion is the biggest meme of WW2, with the cruciality of the Battle of Britain being a close second. I don't think that it is correct to even call it a major defeat since the Germans lost nothing they couldn't replace, the confidence in their nation's capacity to fight and win was unshaken and they then went on to fight a war of a considerably vaster scale in the east a short time later.

The BoB has however acquired a mythos of its own and stating the truth about it's scale and importance compared to actual British war changing wins like El Alamein and the Battle of the Atlantic only tends to provoke people.

>>54827470
They do. Greece for example constantly has shitfits because of Turkish planes flying into Greek airspace

>>54838841
Knocking Britain out of the war was crucial for the Germans. They had to fight Russia with a steadily increasing strategic bombing campaign via the RAF and other air forces stationed in Britain. Furthermore they lost thousands of pilots. Thousands. Skilled pilots ARE difficult to replace. Britain remaining in the war is also the only reason why a 2nd front was able to open up in the west.

A British withdrawal from the war (not necessary invasion and occupation) was absolutely vital to German success. You cannot control the Continent without beating the UK into submission.

>Knocking Britain out of the war was crucial for the Germans.
Yes, but even if they had hypothetically destroyed the entire RAF, they couldn't have knocked britain out of the war since they lacked a way to follow up on the success due to the strength of the RN.

>They had to fight Russia with a steadily increasing strategic bombing campaign via the RAF and other air forces stationed in Britain.
This isn't being discussed.

>Furthermore they lost thousands of pilots. Thousands. Skilled pilots ARE difficult to replace.
Their total casualties were less than 3000 and the Germans were churning out pilots on a much larger scale than the allies of the time. Furthermore, most of the pilots that went down were green, since the veterans had already faced and bested western planes during the low countries and french campaign.

>Britain remaining in the war is also the only reason why a 2nd front was able to open up in the west.
Yes, this is obvious and isn't even being discussed.

>A British withdrawal from the war (not necessary invasion and occupation) was absolutely vital to German success. You cannot control the Continent without beating the UK into submission.
True, but the only way Germany could have done that is by depriving Britain of the Suez and starving Britain through halting the north atlantic convoys, not the half-hearted meme bombing of random cities.

>>54839843
Depriving Britain of the Suez and dominating the north Atlantic was impossible because of the Royal Navy. If they had destroyed the RAF however, and gained air superiority, they could bomb at leisure because anti-air was so shit back then. But it was basically impossible for them to defeat the RAF, they didn't have the range required.

>Furthermore, most of the pilots that went down were green, since the veterans had already faced and bested western planes during the low countries and french campaign.
I don't understand this comment. Their pilots gained war experience but when coming to Britain they become green? Sorry but losing skilled pilots is a big deal.

>Their total casualties were less than 3000
Plus another 1000 captured after they ejected. These were also lost.

The Battle of Britain WAS their first major defeat and it WAS a turning point, because before the BoB the Nazis were winning, after the BoB they lost against the powers they challenged. Don't come back with the early Barbarossa victories after the surprise attack because they couldn't follow through, the challenge of the Soviet Union was failed.

Wow m8 you sure showed me

Tell me a single economic system that can convert a nation in 6 years to a global super power then sustain the war for 6 more additional years against every global super power. The real point is that the Nazis could have won the war, STUPID battle decisions lose the war not the Economic system that funds it, which there clearly weren't any problems with until they started being pushed in from every direction.

Now tell me a single economic system that will work for an undeveloped society. A society still stuck in a tribal form with zero gubernatorial hierarchy.

If you say fucking capitalism you are an absolute dumb fuck, capitalism was only possible because something called a Monarchy existed, and this said Monarchy had its powers usurped by rich nobles to form a parlimentary system which took centuries, from there free market capitalism was born.

Going from a tribal people or a totalitarian monarch/aristocracy to a democratic parlimentary system isn't feasible without outside influence in a short time, in fact I don't think it has ever been successfully done. Communism/Socialism forms a societal hierarchy which is a necessary skeleton to branch and develope future governmental precedents if you are going to skip the slow transition to democracy, if you become dependent on it USSR, Red China ect ect

How can Airspaces be real if space isn't

>Depriving Britain of the Suez and dominating the north Atlantic was impossible because of the Royal Navy.
That is false, the Royal Navy was unable to efficiently protect anything but the barest number of convoys until later in the war, while the war in north africa could have gone either way at that point. Had El Alamein been lost, there was nothin that could have been done to unfuck the suez situation for many months at the very least. The Mediterranean would have becom an axis lake and the allies would have been forced to retreat either into Africa or into the ME mandates.

>If they had destroyed the RAF however, and gained air superiority, they could bomb at leisure because anti-air was so shit back then.
That is blatantly untrue. Many sites were left alone because of the anti air that was present.

>But it was basically impossible for them to defeat the RAF
Which is what I've been saying the whole time when I say that the Battle of Britain can't be a turning point or decisive victory.

>I don't understand this comment. Their pilots gained war experience but when coming to Britain they become green? Sorry but losing skilled pilots is a big deal.
I'm saying that a majority of those that went down were green aircrews, veterans who had already faced the british before did considerably better against them.

>The Battle of Britain WAS their first major defeat and it WAS a turning point, because before the BoB the Nazis were winning, after the BoB they lost against the powers they challenged
Seems we have a different interpretation of what constitutes a turning point.
