I think the Western world is entering (or has already entered) another Red Scare - all these accusations of being a Putin agent towards inconvenient political movements look and sound very similar to accusations of being a secret communist fellow traveller/useful idiot/whatever from the 1950s. The Cold War is truly back, and so is paranoia.

In a way, I guess. But if Europe and NATO stick together I believe it wont take nearly as much time, Russia will once again fall to its own impossibility. This could be a good opportunity to build cooperation and trust within EU. Where Europe really needs to improve is information warfare.

edit: regarding the video, I bet many now wish we hadn't broken up the 200 T-72s in 1994.
That's the first time I hear Russia being called "impossible". Thanks for praising us, I guess? At least, being able to break up the laws of probability as a racial natonal skill certainly sounds like a buff compared to what we have in reality.

Russia is actually composed of a circle of ten incredibility powerful psychics suspended in a hardened bunker buried a mile beneath Perm. There, they form the hypergeometric dream of Russians, who would evaporate in the currents of possibility were they ever disturbed.

Praising Russia? I haven't found a reason to yet. Russki Standard is pretty good though.  :)

What have you done. Now I'll never look at Antarctica and not see elephants again.

Another russian chopper Mi-8  was downed in aleppo area. 5 crew, 4 man and one woman dead.

This region is under heavy fighting in late, government forces encircled one of the bigger part of rebel town/areas, and if it falls this will be a huge blow to rebels, and even maybe end the conflict in that part of region. Yesterday a huge rebel offensive leading by al nusra (they change the name recently to Jabhat Fatah al-Sham) and with coordination of ISIS has started to try and lift the siege. Heavy fighting is still ongoing.

I wonder if the US has the balls to 'violate' international free Chinese restricted airspace during the training.
This statement is very confus

China please stop

So, remember that drone that flew over Golan Heights, ate two Patriot missiles and one air-to-air missile from a jet, and flew away unscathed? It was Russians.

EDIT: Apparently, out of these two fired Patriot missiles, one has suffered a critical technical malfunction and broke down in midair, and the second one couldn't lock on to the drone and self-destructed.

Thanks Russia for providing Israel of the oppurtunity to research in peaceful times how it managed that.
