The questions to ask are, what does Israel rely on Russia for, and vice versa.
USA and Israel for example, weapons, technology, technology companies, technology sharing, intelligence, progoganda, finance, un voting.... It's a joint operation.
Do Russia or Israel have anything similar ?

I have found very little info on as to why Russia is not taking advantage of Israel's current precarious situation to gain concessions from Americans on Ukraine. What more can the Americans do against Russia than already done against Russia??!! In contrast, a little squeeze of Israel by Russia would get the Americans really worried. Russia maybe a B grade military now but it still has immense intelligence gathering resources and can also deploy its nukes, under Russian administration, to threaten Israel. I don't know if Russia can spare much anti-aircraft measures given Russia's own dire needs.

Leaving aside the military matters, to answer you question, I don't know! The little I have gathered is that there is the large Russian Jewish diaspora in Israel and that there are powerful rich Jewish people in the Russian power elite--even around Putin. I don't know. But the sleeping Bear Russia is indeed sleeping here. Missing a potentially strategic opportunity to end the Ukraine war on Russia's terms!!!

The incomparable expert on the ground war in Gaza Jon Elmer in this part of the video starts to show how again the Gazans let the Israel rescuers take away their wounded ones. Very stupid of them! Target the rescuers and their vehicles at least if you don't want to target the injured IDF soldiers!! The odds are already heavily stacked against the Gazans. @UKBengali

Just 2 Yassins fired would have killed 10-12 Zionist terrorists there.

At the least it would have made sure that rescue was not attempted as the would be rescuers know they will be taken out by Hamas.

I was thinking at the start if Hamas could kill at least one thousand Zionist terrorists and so that would give them a good chance to defeat the Zionist terrorist invaders. However, if they have rules like this, no wonder the enemy sees no urgent need to concede anything to them.

On the latter point if it's just a group of people then remember Putin dealt with the oligarchs

The comparison I was trying to draw is that with the USA it's institutional across every institution and it's cultural, so we are talking different orders of magnitude because for these institutions to change it will take simultaneous upheaval, that is tough, less probable and takes longer

I don't think russia wants to have on its scorecard being responsible for the weakening of Israel, that will create enmity down the line that might not be needed.


Also, that might just go too far up the escalation ladder too quickly, though apparently in Russian military schools they are talking to hamas and Russia will protect Iran to the extent it can

That's what I was thinking too--or simply some 'Ghoul' rifles shots. How the Gazans are watching Israelis almost leisurely carrying away their injured within the Gazan weaponry. Countless such videos. Just mindboggling 'compassion' for the dead ones given what Israel is doing in Gaza and given the odds against the Gazans. Such rules should apply to proper militaries like the Indian and Pakistanis treat each others' dead, captured and the injured.

Russia is majorly bled due to the American support to Ukraine. In light of that, not using whatever leverage they can have to pressurize the Americans sounds stupid to me. But then I never thought the Russians were good strategic thinkers--they have immense resources and they throw in soldiers into meat grinders and often prevailed. Heck, the Americans were in their backyard for 20 years in Afghanistan until recently and Russia did diddly squat while the Americans were already bleeding Russia after the 2014 coup in Ukraine.

The lack of good strategic thinking seems prevalent in Russia and I think, even during World War II, they only prevailed by using their immense resources.
Starting about this point of the video, this former US official is wondering about Russia's paralytic policies. Actually, prior to this segment of the video, the guy says the Russian promise to help Iran may not be real.
They are NOT strategic thinkers!!

Well, I am not sure I can conclude the same

Twenty years ago Russia was on its knees right

During those twenty years Russia has recovered and NATO has fortified around it, Ukraine especially

Russia is regarding this war as defensive, though they are invading

So their strategic goal here is to neutralise Ukraine, that's plenty


Russia has always shown deference to Israel in Syria, there must be a reason why

you cannot expect them to fortify Iran, I don't know what other strategy they are capable of?

Let's say Russia supports action against Israel, NATO could green light polish involvement, I am just wildly guessing, things would get uncontrollable

I still find it curious that the USA runs off from Afghanistan in a hurry, then all these events happen, perfect synchronization

Firstly, Russia could have seriously hurt the Americans in Afghanistan between 2001-2021; it was in their own backyard and even middling powers like Pakistan and Iran helped the Taliban. Russia had greatly recovered from the 1991 crises by then.

Who knows about Russian policies WRT Israel. I tend to think Russia still desperately wants to be part of the West and that earning goes back to Peter the Great or even earlier. I also think the Russians are lethargic and suffer from paralytic geopolitics.
As for Poland directly getting involved--no need for that and too dangerous.

Bolded part: One day history is going to find a connection between the American withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine in Feb. 2022--that's just 6 months apart!! Americans outfoxed Russians and denied Russians the opportunity to hurt Americans in Afghanistan for 20 years while the Americans gravely hurt the Soviets between 1979-89 in Afghanistan. And since Feb. 2022, Americans are back to gravely hurting Russia again, using the Ukrainian cannon fodders.

Who shows such strategic missteps on such large scale? Russians. And they seem to be doing it again in the Middle East. I will leave at this: Russians are not and never been great strategic thinkers.

I agree with you a bit more here, and who am I to talk about grand strategy on a random forum but why would Russia be so hostile to the USA at that time when there was no direct provocation and they were rebuilding

You will also recall that Russia jumped in when Pak closed supply routes, that to me suggests they were more than happy to see the Americans tangled in Afghanistan knowing what they know, maybe that got them more breathing space.

Also it looks like there is a self awareness that they are not that strong, not in terms of net power, the Ukraine invasion seems like a reluctant move but honestly I can't fully tell

Russia did try and suck up to the west, I think the logic is if we can't join them, finish their system with china.

Ultimately I see Russia as a power that will pivot in all sorts of ways to survive and prosper


They are economically militarily very much weaker, how much can they do

They clashed with the soldiers from zero distance and destroyed tanks.

Urgent | Al-Qassam Brigades broadcast new scenes of battles between its mujahideen and the occupation forces in the fighting axes in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood, west of the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.

These people, their dusty feet, their sweaty forearms, their missing foreheads, their bleeding wombs, their wounds, are the only ones who paid and are paying the price of any deal that includes their glory and the freedom of their people, and no one has any favor over them, even with one drink of water...
May God’s peace be upon you, you honest Mujahideen
