A Sino-Russian Warning

It wouldn’t be a good idea to invade Iran under any circumstances. But doing so when both Russia and China are sending warning signs about the idea would be criminally insane:

There is now confirmed presence of a Russian nuclear submarine near the Strait of Hormuz. There is also a Confirmed Announcement by Chechen Forces they will enter Iran to fight US if Invasion takes place. REPORT (unconfirmed) China to move 100,000 troops into Iran if US invades.

Moscow has officially deployed six submarines, including two nuclear ones, near the Strait of Hormuz for a discreet mission to protect Iranian infrastructure, according to reports. Their primary role is to prevent the United States and Israel from freely entering the strait or approaching the Iranian coast.

This deployment sends a strong political message to the West, signaling that any major escalation against Iran could directly involve Russia. The presence of two nuclear-armed subs also seems to indicate that if Iran is hit with nuclear weapons, another nearby country that attacks will also be nuked.

Yesterday, Chechen Troops were publicly assembled and at that assembly it was announced they would go to Iran to fight the United States and Israel if Iran is invaded.

No doubt the Christian Zionist eschatologists are tremendously excited today about prospects of the King of the North and the King of the South being miraculously wiped out on the plain of Megiddo. Although I would point out that the loss of a single light-infantry division would hardly cripple Russia, and there is no way the Chinese are going to transport 100,000 troops to the Middle East any more than the US military is.

That being said, a single division of battle-hardened Chechens would probably be sufficient to defeat the IDF, which reportedly took several hundred casualties in a major ambush yesterday morning. The report, which is still unconfirmed, actually claimed that 300 Israeli soldiers were killed after a large convoy moving north in southern Lebanon was ambushed by Hezbollah in a pre-prepared killzone.

The numbers are almost certainly exaggerated, as the media can’t seem to grasp the difference between “casualties” and “fatalities,” and nothing can be trusted coming out of Israel from either side due to the strict military censorship there. It’s doubtful that even those living in Israel would know anything about it yet.
