In the video below, I talk about and I question the reason given by the Russian’s for the recent deployment of their S-400 defense missiles. It was reported two days ago, that the decision was made by Russia in the aftermath of the shooting down of its Su-24 by a Turkish F-16. Allegedly Russia claims it needs a missile cruiser off the coast of Syria AND an unknown number of ultramodern S-400 (or SA-21 Growler in NATO designation) SAM batteries to Latakia to make sure that the tragic incident from Tuesday never repeats itself. We’re told the idea is to send Turkey a very clear message that the next time a Turkish warplane engages a Russian jet, Russia will immediately retaliate using ground forces. Ok, then why the need for Russia’s ultra state-of-the-art air defense system if they’re going to send in ground troops?
The S-400’s are so advanced, they can follow up to 300 targets simultaneously ranging from anywhere between just a few feet off the ground, all the way to 40 miles above the earth’s surface. That’s roughly 5x the reach as it’s western counterpart, the Patriot Missile. The S-400 can also acquire targets up to 600km away and take them out at 400km away. Finally, for efficiency, the super high tech missile defense platform only requires three people to operate, and as you can see in the videos provided, the system is highly portable.
What I don’t get, and which I discuss in my video, is why these missiles are deployed where they are. Up until now, Turkey, a NATO ally, has been suspiciously close with Russia, not a member of NATO. I can’t help but wonder if the Turks somehow learned of a plan to take out the existing Russian pipeline that supplies Europe with almost all of its oil, and taking out the non-threatening Russian SU-24 was Turkey’s way of “covertly” signaling to Russia to get better defenses in place pronto! That is explored more in the video below.
In a move raising the potential threat of a Russia-NATO conflict, Russia said Wednesday it will deploy long-range air defense missiles to its base in Syria and destroy any target that may threaten its warplanes following the downing of a Russian military jet by Turkey.
The incident was the first time in half a century that a NATO member shot down a Russian plane. If Russia responds by downing a Turkish plane, NATO member Turkey could proclaim itself under attack and ask the alliance for military assistance.
Most observers believe that a direct military confrontation is unlikely, but that the shooting down of the plane will further fuel the Syrian conflict and complicate international peace efforts. The situation is also alarming because the Russian and Turkish presidents both pose as strong leaders and would be reluctant to back down and seek a compromise.
The S-400 missiles, which Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered sent to the Hemeimeem air base in Syria’s coastal province of Latakia, just 50 kilometers (30 miles) away from the border with Turkey, are capable of striking targets within a 400-kilometer (250-mile) range with deadly precision.
Earlier the other day, Russia made a very explicit demonstration of the deployment of at least two S-400 batteries at Syria’s Khmeimim airbase, with the Russian Ministry of Defense promptly publicizing the arrival with the following clip. These missiles are no joke!

The military also moved the navy missile cruiser Moskva closer to the shore to help protect Russian warplanes with its long-range Fort air defense system.
“It will be ready to destroy any aerial target posing a potential danger to our aircraft,” Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said at a meeting with military officials. He also announced the severance of all military ties with Turkey and said that from now on, Russian bombers will always be escorted by fighters on combat missions over Syria.
Ozgur Unluhisarcikli, director of the German Marshall Fund in Ankara, said it is possible Russia could down a Turkish plane. “Turkish planes violate the Syrian border daily, either for reconnaissance flights or for anti-IS operations,” he said. “In the same way that Turkey argues it has rules of engagement, Russia could also declare its own rules of engagement, saying it has the right to protect the skies of its ally.”
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has often been compared to Putin for his authoritarian ways, said Wednesday that his country doesn’t wish to escalate tensions with Russia.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg in turn said that the downing of the plane “highlights the need to strengthen mechanisms to avoid such incidents in the future.” “We should not sleepwalk into unintended escalation,” he wrote in an op-ed that is to be published Thursday and was made available to The Associated Press.
Iran meanwhile lashed out at Turkey, with the official IRNA news agency quoting Presidednt Hassan Rouhani as saying Ankara is responsible for the heightened tensions in the region. One of the Russian pilots was killed by militants in Syria after bailing out, while his crewmate was rescued by Syrian army commandos and delivered in good condition to the Russian base early Wednesday. A Russian marine was also killed by the militants during the rescue mission.
Speaking in televised comments from the Russian base in Syria, the surviving navigator of the downed plane, Capt. Konstantin Murakhtin, denied that his jet veered into Turkey’s airspace “even for a single second.” He also rejected Turkey’s claim that it had issued repeated warnings to the Russian crew before shooting down the plane.
Putin said the Foreign Ministry’s warning for Russians not to visit Turkey was needed “because we can’t exclude some other incidents following what happened yesterday and our citizens in Turkey could be in significant danger.”
Osman Ayik, the head of the Turkish Hoteliers Federation, told Taraf newpaper Wednesday that a decline in Russian tourists visiting Turkey would be a “disaster” for the tourism sector. If Russia-Turkey tensions escalate further, both countries potentially could inflict significant pain on each other in many areas.
Russia was the biggest source of Turkish imports last year, worth $25 billion, which mostly accounted for Russian gas supplies. Most Turkish exports to Russia are textiles and food, and Turkish construction companies have won a sizable niche of the Russian market.
Unluhisarcikli said that along with economic moves, Russia may also increase its support to Syrian Kurdish groups, which have been fighting against IS but not against the Syrian regime. So far, Russia has refrained from doing so as not to anger Turkey, but now it could go ahead with plans to open an office in the Syrian Kurdish regions and supply arms to the fighters, Unluhisarcikli said.
Analysts said Turkey doesn’t have the option of closing the Turkish Straits to Russia, which has used the route that connects the Black Sea to the Mediterranean to supply its forces in Syria. According to the Montreux Convention, which sets out international rules for using the straits, Turkey can only make the move if the two countries are formally at war.
Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the Turkish action was a “planned provocation” and rejected his Turkish counterpart’s proposal to meet at the sidelines of some international forum in the coming days to try to ease tensions.
Before Tuesday’s incident, Russia and the West appeared to be inching toward joining efforts to fight the Islamic State group following the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris and the Oct. 31 bombing of a Russian airliner over Egypt’s Sinai desert. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for both attacks.

The agenda is moving on at great speed……

Yup, and that can only mean one thing, Israel will be attacked soon, fulfilling prophecy of revelations perfectly.
If i had to guess, id say Russia, China, N Korea etc will all “find” a reason to blame Israel for ISIS and terrorism in general. Considering the anti-USA movement happening right now it could easily be implemented, next comes the tac nuke on temple mount, then nuclear war, 60 in total. Considering USA has close relations with Israel, and te ease at which the world is “demonising” the USA. I can see that happening any day/week now.
True Christians will be raptured soon, not much time left, accept Jesus, avoid the wrath. Its going to be a sad place without us around.
You will be sorely disappointed, if you are waiting for a rapture. The only rapture in the Bible is when Jesus returns at the end of the tribulation on his way to set up His kingdom. There is no mention of a “secret” drive by of Jesus. He promised to return and never leave again. Turn off your TV and read the Bible and learn the truth. The teachings of man will lead to perdition.
No you are wrong rapture and second coming are 2 totally different events,at the rapture we will meet jesus in the air in a blink of an eye at the second coming everyone will see Him and he will set foot on the earth know your bible dude…..
Putin sent a clear warning to the west:”fu&k offff !!!” excuse the language; The US and its allies got it; they didn’t send any warplane bombing Syria since the incident. Playing too close with the bear can be dangerous since the west isn’t silly to engage a third WW, so they are doing like french would say” profil bas” to allow the bear to calm because they really pissed him off. When will they all realise that we are all in the same boat, childish humans playing war, we must grow up.
Now, just where can you please tell me you went fishing with a bear? Maybe we are in the same forest or Zoo, but a Bear in the same boat? I’m out!
Nice play of words
but you arn’t realising how far from the truth you are…we are talking of a boat like Noah’s ark…our planet will face a very big threat soon and all what you are seeing is pure distraction.
3 people per S400 truck minimum, driver and 2 operators, 3 trucks per S400 unit Command, Radar and Missile Launcher. Expect 2 platoons of Russians with each S400 unit for security and support. Roughly therefore 150 men per deployment. To cover Syria and 300 miles into Turkey/Jordan/Israel at least 10 must be deployed and it is very likely the deployment will go into Kurdistan as well because of Turkey and to cover Northern Iraq. At this time these Sam units would need around 4000 Russians to guard them.
In a normal layered deployment there are attached AAA ground units to protect the S400 itself the total of Russians deployed therefore may be 4 to 5 times higher, fulfilling the defense treaty obligations with Iran and Syria without a single Russian having to fight on the ground.
All right little man let’s see what your toy can do. I doubt very much it is capable of that. But surprise me.
Fosheezy can show you what his toy does. it’ll injected in your brown starfish, as soon as Lyn Leahz gets her schlong out of there. Then it’ll be Kyle Style for the slime

When I called you “little man” you should know what I’m talking about.
This was on the news 3 days ago, we will have to call the site after the news ATN
The Elitis been allowing Turkish President Erdogan to think he is in charge.
It is now very clear Turkey is also included In the Mid East eviction process that is under way.
NATO has unofficially kicked Turkey out of the center inner circle, as the Elitis pull a power play and removed Turkey from the Future Maps.
Plus the Elitis know that Turkish President Erdogan, has discovered Ancient Artifacts, High technological devices, and now trying to activate the devices, the Elitis are now boiling mad, and will do everything in their power to obtain these Ancient artifact Devices.
The Higher Elder from the Very Olde SS Eletis Family know to be of Higher Species, has now employed Russia to Enforce a total Eviction notice On Turkey.
NATO will turn a blind eye, as they have unofficially Kicked Turkey under the Bus.
Be sure to do your own Research.
Searching on the WEB, not in a bubble revealed the following;
Posted by sitrep
As reported on the internet Blogs, etc.
Yes, and now the President of Turkey has discovered the Stargate, and attempting to activate it.
The Elitis is boiling Slauthering mad, and now unofficially has kicked Turkey Out of The NATO Gang.
Turkish so called Scientist bumbling along, was alerted by a Turkish goat breeder, when he discovered the Stargate Along with Many other Ancient Artifacts, also Many Tablets made of unknown material was in the cache.
This Cache consisted of, Tablets of unknown origin, with very strange writings, symbols, etc, Stargate, Some Rocks that ooze a sticky substance, glass tubes along inside, that looks to contain some type of small alien species, Very Strange Black cubes approx 2′x2′ with no seems of an unknown material that seem to defy gravity, Various Crystals of all shapes, and sizes, could be StarGate Activation keys, ancient devices that use sound waves to levitate objects, and concentrated ultra sound rock boring tunnelling devices, Even a device with some type of crystalline screen, and holographic projector, just to much to list
As Many are ignorant to the facts, Hitler Was on a huge world wide quest to locate Ancient Alien Artifacts, Now the Elitist have control of all Ancient Artifacts, and have already stated not to stand in their way, and do not try to hide, or activate any devices.
The Old SS Elitis Family Gave a very serious warning on MSM, “Do Not Stand In Our Way” I only quoted a little of what the Elitis stated, because it was very severe, and had very harsh warnings for those that find Artifacts, and try to hide them—*******Upon Finding These Artifacts Turkey Should Have immediately gone through their proper chain of command channels, and contacted the Elitist.
Now Turkey has really messed up, and even trying to activate these devices, Turkey does not even have enough scientist to construct, a ziegflauger simple circuit, it would be like the Three Stooges Searching for their long lost brother.
Oh my gosh Turkey has now received their eviction notice from the Elitist High Elder, from the old family, considered to be of a higher Species.
Most people are very ignorant to the fact why all the Middle East is being cleared out.
Putin is not “posing”, I am afraid. Erdogan on the other hand is a poser. Turkey has been weaponizing and enabling ISIS, which has been murdering thousands of Christians, to create a New Caliphate. Assad never oppressed and murdered the Christians. Only MUSLIMES do this, because that is what they are and what their satanic Quran COMMANDS. It appears that TURKISH Muslimes are no different than ISIS. Murdering Muslime THUGS. Turkey needs to be evaporated off the planet. I think Russia WILL do just that. The world will suffer less in the long run, with this FOUL STENCH removed from it. Then it is on to the rest of the Murdering Muslime stench to remove.
Maybe Russian intelligence has got wind of something, we know somethings got to happen sooner or later the way things are going.
@ medtes, you are the only reasonable guy here. (“Med” – are you a medical practitioner? This would explain much)
“Mankind must grow up” and stop warfare, for we all are in ONE boat which is this planet and we do NOT have another planet in reserve. There is nothing to be said beyond this. It is the truth and we gotta adapt to it.
@ some others here, we cannot and must not recur to the childish idea of a Rapture saving the Christians, or perhaps only those Christians of one´s own respective sect … what a provincial thought pattern, how can you ascribe to God to be so narrow-minded? hah hah! IS terrorists could as well be made to believe that Prophet Muhammad will rapture them from the battlefield exactly in the moment when they actually are to die… this would be exactly the same, folks, so dont rely on the tale of Rapture, it is all a bunch of lies.
Moreover: Rapture means the same as thinking we got another planet in reserve – it is an idea designed to give a fake escape from our real tasks.
Some fake esotericians say similar things: the good ones will be teleported to Sirius or wherever, and the less good ones will have to do the dirty work on this dirty planet without celestial help. Ah, those poor ones.
What does this idea really mean? It is an insult toward all those who still got their two feet down to Earth and desperately try to do the real work that is piling up more and more here, instead of joining that CloudShoving army of Delusionists who try to escape the stratum of real work and, for example, think they can heal Earth by buying expensive flowers and crystals to arrange them on altars in special points on Earth which they think to be acupuncture points of the planet…. This kind of “esotericism” must have been invented by florists and stone-traders, to enhance their financial gain, and by a certain kind of people (US women with lots of bucks? sorry, I am a woman too, I certainly am not sexist, but I know this kind of women all too well) who can arrange flowers and create beauty but have no other gifts. Hah hah again.
I DO believe in magic, YEAH, and rituals of this kind can have some effect, YEAH, but all those who know what magic really is – and see, folks, all religion taken seriously IS magic – will agree that one must both do mundane work at daytime and one´s respective rituals at night time or on special holidays. Rituals cannot replace the cooking of meals or the sweeping of floors! Nor will they ever give magical escapes from normal duties for the lazy ones among people! All things have their proper places in the Natural World Order, which, as it is God-given, will never be really replaced by any man-made order, no matter how intensely some Cloud-Shovers WISH it so. Magic is NOT Wishful Thinking! It is, on the contrary, the result of knowing and accepting the God-given world order.
at last, @ that one here who overtly wishes first Turkey and then the whole Islamic world to be exterminated: 1) I say it again, read my former posts, the Cultural War today is not about one religion against the other, it is about Religion vs Cynicism and about Reason vs Wishful Thinking. All religious warfare is obsolete today. And those who presently claim to wage a Djihad are not Muslims but hypocritical murderers and robbers on Captagon.
and 2) Fear the law of Karma! Those who lust for bloodshed ALL will at last see their own blood running. I am ashamed for your overt war propaganda, and even more ashamed for your claiming to be on the Good Side in the delusion that Islam as a whole is devilish and that Christianity needs something like a new Crusade against it. I hope to God that people like you never get taken serious by those in power. Your kind of pseudo Christian propaganda could directly lead to extermination, not of Islam or Turkey, but of your kind of Christendom itself. And the innocent, honest Christians all over the world ALL wil have to suffer together with hypocrites like you. SHUT UP YOUR FACES, warmongerers, and keep out of the real world! Betterr go back to your kid´s rooms, drink Coca Cola, dress up as Darth Vader before your mirrors and play World of Warcraft PC games till you drop.
