@Redmanticore Рік тому
usa has no interest in literally placing strategic sized hypersonic nuclear missiles on the fin border, close to Petersburg, to try to create a political crisis artificially. there is 400 km (250 mi) from Petersburg to finnish border. cuban missiles were 140 km (90 mi) from Florida. they are just interested in the kola peninsula area: a total of 81.5 per cent of russian strategic maritime nuclear capabilities are concentrated in the northern fleet, and its home to systems such as the RS-24 YARS and Murmansk-BN electronic warfare system. russia’s EW capabilities were on display during natos’s trident juncture 2018 exercise, when both norway and finland were the victims of russian GPS jamming and interference. and places like new SLBM storage facility (69.114642° 33.525728°) that consist of a total of 50 storage bunkers, each with four storage bays, that potentially houses a total of 200 rsm-56 Bulava SLBMs. rsm-56 Bulava is a Russian submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missile. missile can carry between six and ten 150 kiloton warheads. it´s considered a key element of the russian armed forces' nuclear triad. perhaps a pre-emptive first strike into nuclear missile storages with stealth f35´s, that carries tactical nuclear missile on them, designed for bunker-busting, in case things ever break down. or at least, that's what usa wants russia to obsess about.

I don’t think most people understand just how insane Finland is. Sure it’s a small country, sure there aren’t a lot of people, but Finland and it’s military are known for being fierce fighters. The only reason it collaborated with Russia was because they didn’t want to lose their borders, but they still inflicted heavy casualties on Russia when they last fought. The Finnish people are also very proud of being Finnish, I happened to know a Finnish guy who is traditionally from Finland who said he would go back and defend his country no matter what. Moral of the story is don’t fuck with Finland unless you want the smoke.

Finland joined NATO, but that's all. Finland is not about to let NATO come in and install nuclear missiles, build an invasion force, or construct all sorts of bases along the border. They want to make themselves less of a target, not more. They don't want to be the next Ukraine. Nobody does. So they won't make Ukraine's mistakes. What Finland wants is for Sweden to become really strong, to discourage Russia from coming that direction. Meanwhile Finland wants to be a strong but totally non-threatening country to separate the two sides. And that is exactly what Russia wants too. Finland and Russia want exactly the same thing, a strong but peaceful, non-threatening buffer zone, and they both know it. But they try to keep it as their little secret. They aren't really enemies, they're secret friends.

The Finnish application to NATO is why I've been saying that Russia lost the war in Ukraine on day one. Even if Russia managed to completely defeat Ukraine (which they haven't), this strategic loss is so dramatic and stands in stark contrast to what Putin actually wanted. I think it is totally fair to say that Russia lost by failing to uphold their strategic goals.

Finland is not Ucraine, finnish people aren't Russians. It's existence barely matters. To Russia if Finland is all just wiped off map it's still mission uccomplished.

What you miss in this video, is that you should clarify some things. Mainly the fact that even when Finland was a part of Russian empire 1809-1917, the Russian laws were not valid in Finland because Finland´s legal system from Swedish rule was still kept in use. Also during the time Finland was officially known as Grand Duchy of Finland which legally an autonomous area and was ruled by Finnish nobility but it had a governor-general appointed by the Russian Czar. In short: Finland was part of Russian empire but not part of Russia. Edit: Added a word "area" which was missing

A large group of Russian soldiers in the border area in 1939 are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a small hill: "One Finnish soldier is better than ten Russian". The Russian commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the hill where Upon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence. The voice once again calls out: "One Finn is better than one hundred Russian." Furious, the Russian commander sends his next best 100 troops over the hill and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again Silence. The calm Finnish voice calls out again: "One Finn is better than one thousand Russians from: The enraged Russian commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the hill. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought... Then silence. Eventually one badly wounded Russian fighter crawls back over the hill and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men!!! It's a TRAP! There are TWO of them!"

The USA installed a puppet government in 2014 overthrowing the elected government. The east of Ukraine said no to this and tried to separate. Ukraine sent in there military to crush the people killing/murdering there own. The people took up arms in self defense and needed help. Russia offered help. Ukraine ended up in a civil war with Russia helping the people against a tyrannical puppet government installed by the USA. The fighting was supposed to stop with the Minsk accords. Ukraine broke the Minsk accords many times. Ukraine kept shelling the peoples republics killing civilians. In 2022 of Feb Russia show a huge build up of the Ukrainian army getting ready to attack the peoples republics. Russia lunched its Special Military Ops to protect the people from the aggression the the Ukrainian government. The conflict is not the sole fault nor sole responsibility of the Russia. The USA and Ukrainian government are just as responsibility and guilty. There's three guilty party's there USA, Ukrainian government and Russia. The victims are the Ukrainian people in all of Ukrainian. Being used as puppets in a geopolitical chess game. By the USA to fight a proxy war in Ukraine against Russia.

Lore, if you're going to mention Finland's conflict with the Soviet Union during WW2 then it's probably important to note that their "alliance" with Germany was part of one of the greatest uno reverse cards in history by the Finnish President Risto Ryti. Essentially Finland's alliance with Germany had the very specific condition that it would only be upheld for as long as Risto Ryti was President which is precisely why not long after Risto Ryti resigned from the role and allowed his successor to forge a non-aggression pact with Russia. Of course, the end result of this was the Soviets calling for the man to be imprisoned for his "war crimes" while Finland immortalised the guy as a hero. I can only assume there's a statue of him in Helsinki somewhere with some seriously massive balls.

Finland was caught in a vice - PERIOD. However Germany was an old ally of the Finnish elite. NOT Nazi Germany. On a scale of 1-10 I would rank Communism as the greatest scourge this earth has ever seen. Nazi Germany does not even come close to the destruction wrought on man by Marxian Communism. Today, while they do not adhere to Marxist ideology, the globalist use Marxist tactics to control you and brainwash you. The problem with Finland during WWII was that Sweden remained neutral and therefore there was no means by which the West could help them. That is why Churchill was so upset at the debacle in Norway and always desired an attempt ( Operation Jupiter ) to invade Norway and then hopefully compel Finland to switch sides or opt out of the war altogether. The problem was, Jupiter planning became a fiasco because the Soviets would not help. Therefore Jupiter became nothing more than a deception plan. What people do not understand is that the Bolsheviks / Soviets ALWAYS had designs on Finland and only attacked in 1940 because their internal coup failed to materialize. Stalin planned to take Finland the way he occupied the Baltic countries. This by building up their respective Comintern Communist parties and then mounting a coup. Those mounting the coup would then politely ask the assistance of the USSR to intervene. The USSR then NEVER leaves. It did not work, so Stalin attacked. When that did not work out as planned either, he once again bolstered Communists within Finland. So Finland has always, to some extent been a puppet of the USSR. When the USSR fell on its ass Finland remained a , to a large degree, a Communist state. That is why their supreme stupidity is being revealed now. It's pay back time. They are one of the few European countriest to continue to maintain a statue and park devoted to the lying mass murderer and moron Lenin. Again, what came first the chicken or the egg? Well, Communism came first THEN National Socialism. Hitler learned from the mistakes of Lenin and Trotsky and their NEP, and created a Communism of his own. Not a globalist, internationalist ideology but a NATIONAL one that attempted to fix the unfixable. The greatest LIE in history is that the NSDAP was a RIGHT-WING organization. That was a LIE begun by Klara Zetkin's Anti-Fascist organization set up by the Comintern in the 1920s because they were terrified of their somewhat similar competition.

Anyways, Had Japan not bombed Pearl Harbour, bringing the USA into it, Germany and it's allies could have potentially won WW2 albeit without being able to successfully invade the UK. In that timeline, you would have joined the good guys - since history is written by the victors.

Henry Ford literally wrote books on how terrible Jews are and why we should kill them all - and you'd get a free book for every Ford you bought. Like a brochure for your car. Just instead of explaining how it works, you're told that you should kill Jews and that they are evil. And Ford is praised like a god by Americans. Hitler literally praising Americans and their behaviour towards Jews in his book "Mein Kampf" and saying it was his inspiration. And most of the Nazi leadership openly saying that they only became anti-Semitic, because of the Americans and what those said about the Jews. Henry Ford's "The international Jew" series likely being the biggest influence, because it's named so often. Jews were disliked everywhere in the world at that time.

Well, not Nazis. The government was filled with warmongeres and the state was very fascistic, with stuff like the Lapua movement's demands being accepted and the left opposition forced completely underground (The social democrats were excluded from this, which makes you wonder how closely they'll align with fascists.), not to mention how many reds we put into concentration camps (offical information of this doesn't exist, documents having gotten either destroyed or 'going missing'. We only know about the camps from officer and soldier testimonies, but also from their and the prisoners' journals). Don't also forget that we attacked first in the 20s by the tribal wars. 'Unifying our cultural and lingual brothers' my ass. When the 1939 demands came for an exchange of land, we almost accepted the demands. It was a small clique formed from the national coalition and others that in the end refused the deal, giving us an ultimatum, which was once again refused. After three months of fighting and in the end conceding to prevent any more damages, we were still at an governmental level in a state of war. Whoch makes the continuation war thing a bit b*llshitty for me, cause because the country was at a state of war, the army was effectively in control. 'Armeijahallitus' it was called. This enabled generals of the army, Including Mannerheim, to sign a treaty with Hitler's germany for an invasion of the soviets. Mind you this was done without the consent of the parliment, which after war was declared was forced to go with it. The fact that our early 20th century history is so whitewashed (double meaning here), and how that whitewashed narrative is even pushed today. I mean, who cares about Häyhä, or 'hakkaa päälle, pohjan poika'. This isn't the 30s, stop pretending it is.

Many mentions of how vulnerable the location of Saint Petersburg is, but not the reason for that location: it was intentionally founded on top of a Swedish outpost in 1703. It was a strategic point, a way to move in and assert power over newly conquered areas. Successfully so, going on 320 years now.

Just as a little sidenote, this "poseidon torpedo" doesn't exist. Or more pecisly, there might be a torpedo they call "poseidon" but if it exists the capabilities of the torpedo are, to say the least, greatly exaggerated. No, detonating a 100 Megaton nuclear explosion inside coastal waters will NOT generate a tsunami much less a mega tsunami. First of all the power of the explosion will be traveling in all directions so only a realticly small portion of that power will actually drive water towards the coast. But even if the russians managed to make a magical shaped nuclear explosive device, 100 megatonnes of tnt isn't even close to the power needed to generate a tsunami. People tend to underestimate just how much power is actually in natural phenomena. Your average raincloud has 100 megatonnes of tnt worth of power in it. The reason why rainclouds don't level cities with their power is because the energy is diffused over a great area, most of the energy is being discharged right back into the weather system and the energy discharge that is reaching the ground (aka, the rain) is discharged slowly and over a wide area.

I live just few km away from the Russian border near a border crossing point.... Since spring of this year, there has been interesting increase of air traffic, lot of big ass choppers flying around on same routes, including those French ones with gun attached below. I've ever seen those flown by twos and threes outside of big exercises before and this has become a routine. Gone are the lone border guard choppers, now its twos and threes of air force stuff. Also the local army base has become far more active, I can hear the gunshots from their shooting range. Whole lot more of machinegun fire than before and I'm talking more than just RK's. Just days ago they were also shooting artillery over there, huge loud bangs over and over. I haven't heard mortals for quite a while. All this activity is normal here, but not with this frequency. The local base has a fast response spec ops guys, I bet they're given extra ammunition to burn on the range as there's so much more noise. Never heard this much shooting and seen this kind of air traffic before. Which is great, keep them on their toes.

Bekrachtiging bewerken Het verdrag werd echter bekrachtigd door 30 landen in plaats van 22.
