Armenia and Azerbaijan WAR! Stepanakert under Azeri fire now! pg 149

I posted a very good interview about jihadists entering Russia.

Ret. Colonel Alexander Ivanovich Zhilin of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation provided to The Armenian Weekly.

The war has started. Azerbaijan attacked Armenia along the entire length of the Line of Contact. As always, it all happened quite unexpectedly for the two neighboring states [countries], but I think that our fabulous intelligence had information regarding the preparations for this war.

This war has been in preparation for a minimum of two years. Azerbaijan was being trained by Turkish as well as American specialists. I do not view these military actions as a battle for Karabakh (Artsakh). Karabakh is secondary in this case. This is Erdogan’s war against Russia for the Caucasus. This is Casus belli (an excuse for war), and the way we have been building our relations with Turkey will now cost us dearly. What do I mean? Look at the declarations of Turkey’s leader. They are harsh. They are precise. In fact Erdogan announced that Azerbaijan is a resource for achieving his certain objectives. The objectives are global.

I would like to say that no matter how much fun they make of Mr. Erdogan here, today he is one of the most effective politicians and leaders. He is cynical, he is shrewd, and he and his council are able to foresee situations. If we simply evaluate our relations with Turkey under Erdogan’s rule (I am saying this with a feeling of certain shame), he had us everywhere, wherever it was possible. We labored to build a nuclear plant, we laid pipelines, we opened our markets for him, and so on. Today, after the immense expenses for construction of those gas and oil pipelines, factually, the delivery [supply] has been stopped. We are suffering losses all around. Moreover, this war, which Azerbaijan instigated under Turkey’s pressure, is extraordinarily dangerous for the Russian Federation. We are a multinational state, and while everybody is analyzing whether Karabakh is occupied or unoccupied territory, the danger comes from the Turkish side. Hence Azerbaijan as an arena and a resource also becomes our strategic enemy. Let’s say this in all honesty: Azerbaijan is not a partner. We do not have any partners. We have either those who are consumerists or enemies. This is how the situation stands in the 21st century. 

To say today that it is somehow possible to come to terms with Mr. Aliyev via some political consultations is a delirium [nonsense]. It is a delirium. One can come to terms only by taking a hard position. For example,  we can say behind closed doors that for 72 hours we are closing all Azeri businesses throughout the Russian Federation, starting with markets to all those Food Cities, and so on and so forth. We can work things out with Kurds so that there will be shockwaves in Turkey. We also have other resources that we must implement in order to extinguish this [war]. The developing situation there is catastrophic for us. What do I mean? Both sides now feel extreme mutual hatred. That is obvious everywhere. If, say, in Armenia or in Azerbaijan the policy is to instill hatred toward the neighbor, then even in the Russian Federation the same kids from Azerbaijan permit themselves in my opinion to conduct flagrant actions. We all remember too well that the Food City complex refused to serve Armenians and almost threw Armenians out [of the stores]. You are in a third country, gentlemen! What are you permitting yourselves to do? 

I am further extrapolating this situation. The pressure keeps increasing and increasing. Someone prognosticated a situation as follows. Some strange people with some kind of characteristic accent deliberately storm into a school. It is a provocation. It can be done by anybody— the CIA, by anyone. It can be done by guys [khloptsy] from Ukraine. So, God forbid, they start butchering children from Armenia, or children from Azerbaijan at school. Let’s say it’s been randomly established that there [at school] children from Armenian or Azeri Diaspora study.

What is Russia to do when the Caucasus rises, when Azerbaijani or Armenian Diaspora rises, and all that turns into a bloody mess? Do we have forces to stop all that later, when that process is in full force? What am I talking about? I am talking about that little war. If Erdogan succeeds in reaching certain objectives and if we (God forbid) treacherously betray Armenia, then our authority in Caucasus will become a total zilch [naught]. We will not be able to control the situation there. We will be obliged to… I don’t even know how to act. Because in this case it is about activation of dormant cells. All that exists and all that works against us. Therefore, when this war is discussed, we have to realize that in my view (and I can be wrong): first Ukraine, then Central Asia, then Eastern Europe, then Belarus, then frankly speaking, this little war. All those events are stemming from one united anti-Russian plan. That such a plan exists, I think, our intelligence reported to the political administration. One of the distinguishing marks is that we conducted the Kavkaz 2020 [Caucasus 2020 military exercises] with significantly  (at the last moment significantly) increased potential.Those Kavkaz 2020 exercises were a form of warning: lads, don’t play with fire. They did not heed. Neither Erdogan nor anyone else heard [the warning]. [Voice of the interviewer: “Nor Aliyev. He never grasps warnings.”] Not at all. The consolidation there is on these levels: Washington, Ankara and Baku. A technological lineup on the road to organization of an interethnic nationalistic little war in Russia, a most fierce one from which practically there is no exit, to create within the Russian Federation an explosion which will simply tear apart our country. 

Today we do not have such potential as to counterweight these processes. There is no ideology [or] image of the future. In this case, I think that the situation should be viewed as critical, and every sort of leverage ought to be used first and foremost against Turkey. Because – I underscore – because if over there the circumstances develop in favor of the plan which is being implemented, then we will not lose only Caucasus, but we might lose [our] country.

I would like to address our remarkable Kremlinites with a request. Please ask your advisors, your area specialists to compile a historical document on Russo-Turkish relations. How many times has Turkey been armed against Russia? Who told you gentlemen who sold S-400 to our unconciliatory foe Turkey that these missiles will not be used against our airplanes taking off from Gyumri? Who told you that? Has Erdogan fulfilled even one single promise given to Putin? Do we not see how Turkey attacks us in Syria? Do we not see that Turkey attacks us in Libya, attempting to throw away all our oil resources? Do we not see [Turkey’s] behavior in other areas? Please give me an example: who is as actively acting against Russia today as Turkey does? Even the USA is not acting as actively against us as Erdogan does. I want to say once again that Erdogan is a very strong politician, whoever might make fun of him. Thus far he has only victories. We have only bluff.

PARDON MY FRENCH BUT, WHY IN THE WORLD NOBODY DARES IN RUSSIA TO NAME PUTIN AS A TRAITOR??? IS THAT SUCH A CRIME OR A HUGE SHAME??? THEY HAVE OMON TOUGHEST BOYS YOU CAN DREAM OF. I HAVE MET ONE OF THEM IN THE LATE 90'S HE WAS A DOCTOR HERE IN ROMANIA. HE DEMONSTRATED ME WHAT HE KNEW.WOW!!! AMAZING SKILLS AND TALENTED, INCREDIBLE CAPACITIES. HE TOLD ME THIS IS HOW WE WERE TAUGHT IN THE UNION. WHY DON'T THEY TAKE DOWN PUTIN??? THEY ARE AFRAID OF WHAT??? LOSING INCOME, PROPERTY, HOW ABOUT BEING ENSLAVED BY THE TURKS??? WTF!!!

Yep and it was the Russians warning the US and Co about the threat of extremism in the Islamic world, then bam 9/11

Exactly so. Putin warning Bush in early 2001 that Afghanistan was going to blow up on his watch as well.

Not going to lie though it did make me suspicious of Russia warning the west before 9/11 happens of a rising Islamic extremist threat, but equally look at what they were fighting in Chechnya.

Side note not much is said about the tear drop Russia gifted America Post 9/11 either.

Putin was right really as he would posit of Western world supporting in Syria those who would eat body parts...

Armenian president wants NATO to explain Turkish involvement in Nagorno-Karabakh

Armenia’s president is demanding answers from NATO over the involvement of Turkey in the Nagorno-Karabakh war.

Armen Sarkissian says he’s ready to travel to Brussels to confront the transatlantic alliance over Ankara’s actions in the Caucasus and warn the European Union of the threat they pose to the bloc’s security.

“If I go to Brussels,” he said in an interview with POLITICO, “I would like to speak to the NATO leadership as to why this very strange situation is taking place where Turkey, a full NATO member, is involved in a war that has nothing to do with NATO. How on earth is it that a NATO member is acting as freely as a cowboy and NATO does nothing? Does this mean they have a green light from NATO?”

Turkey threw its weight behind traditional ally Azerbaijan when the frozen conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh — an Armenian-controlled enclave internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan — reignited last month. The fighting has cost hundreds of lives, with both sides accusing each other of killing civilians.

Armenia is accusing Turkey of sending fighter jets and Syrian mercenaries to Azerbaijan. Ankara has denied this, though several media reports have documented the presence of Syrian fighters and F-16s. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has acknowledged Turkish F-16s are present in the country but claimed they were not used in the fighting.

Sarkissian said he wanted to visit NATO’s Brussels headquarters to “get explanations” as to why “Turkish weapons, drones and F-16 are involved in the process of bombing Armenia and Armenian civilians in huge numbers. These are NATO-made weapons: the engines from Austria, the avionics are from Canada and the parts of the rockets are from Britain and so on.”

“Nowadays, NATO is a mere instrument of U.S. foreign policy. It has no allies, it has only vassals. When a country becomes a NATO member, it is very hard for it to resist pressure from a big country … like the United States.”

It's all fubar.

Russian Colonel Zhilin: ‘This Is Erdogan’s War Against Russia For The Caucasus’

Following is an English translation of the October 1, 2020 on-camera remarks by Ret. Colonel Alexander Ivanovich Zhilin of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation provided to The Armenian Weekly.

The Iranian military crushed a convoy of military equipment of the Turkish Armed Forces with dense fire.

After Turkey tried to evacuate its troops from a military base near the Syrian settlement of Morek, Iranian forces attacked the convoy of equipment. As a result of the attack by the Iranian military, two military trucks were destroyed, and several other vehicles were seriously damaged. “In the province of Idlib, a convoy of the Turkish Armed Forces was fired upon, which was carrying out measures to withdraw its observation post from the territory controlled by the SAR government. As a result of the shelling, one driver was killed, several more were wounded, and 2 trucks of the Turkish Armed Forces burned down.

The incident took place in the area of n. the village of Maaret-El-Uliya between Sarmin and Sarakib, ”the Russian news publication“ Russian Spring ”reports.
Journalists clarify that the fire was opened by those controlled by Turkey groups, however, Syrian sources refer to the fact that this was done by Iranian military formations that are indeed deployed in the area. The news agency Avia.pro obtained unique video footage showing the moment of the defeat of the Turkish military convoy, while a number of Syrian sources clarify that the reason for the attack was an attempt by the retreating Turkish forces to attack the positions of the Syrian and Iranian military located in this region, in as a result, powerful fire was opened on the column.

A video with a downed Azerbaijani bomber has appeared on the web.

A few hours ago, unique video footage appeared at the disposal of the information resource Avia.pro, which captured the moment of the crash of the Azerbaijani bomber, which was shot down, according to the Armenian side, based on the "corn plant". In the video footage presented, you can see how the plane stuck its nose into the ground, while, despite the statements of the Armenian media, there was no visible damage on the plane. Moreover, there is no bomb load here either, which indicates the fact that we are not talking about the use of the aircraft as a bomber, as previously stated. Among other things, another fact is very important - the aircraft is indeed equipped with a remote control system, which refutes the theory of the Wargonzo project, which reported the day before that such flying the devices are operated by suicide bombers. “It is quite probable that An-2 is used to“ open ”the air defense systems of Armenia and NKR. Any other modernization of such aircraft is unreasonably expensive and ineffective, ”the specialist notes. Judging by the presented video frames, the plane crashed due to a technical malfunction, although there are no official statements on this score from Baku so far.

We could be seeing heavy urban fighting soon.

Not confirmed yet. Northern route is not taken yet.

Time for the final crusade.

God Wills it. Christian Faith is never mocked.
