In Russia, said, Putin is quietly getting rid of Assad

Russia will not be able to withstand a massive attack of the Americans.

In that case, if the United States decides to eliminate the regime of Bashar Assad in Syria, Russia will not be able to withstand a massive attack of the Americans.

This in material for gazetasi the military commentator Mikhail Khodarenok.

“Last week the Pentagon chief James Mattis said that the Syrian authorities seem to have listened to the warning of the inadmissibility of the use of chemical weapons in the country that gave the military-political leadership of the United States reason to postpone the strike on Syria. However, the reason for the missile and air strikes by the military of Bashar al-Assad, the United States will always find,” he writes.

Khodarenok said that in the Eastern part of the Mediterranean sea at the moment is a carrier battle group of aircraft carrier “George Bush”, two cruisers and two destroyers, the US Navy’s guided-missile weapons.

“The strikes on Bashar al-Assad may be brought for tactical aviation airfields of Saudi Arabia (airbase Prince Sultan), Qatar (air base al-Udeid air base), Bahrain (air base Sheikh-ISA), Kuwait (air base Ahmed al-Jabir), and strategic aviation airfields in the UK and the continental United States. Finally, it can be applied to strategic bombers such as the b-1 deployed on the basis of the Markaz-Tamariz in Oman,” said the author.

He added that he believes that in this way in the first massive missile and air strikes, the United States can apply against Assad to 1.5 thousand cruise missiles, sea-and air-based.

The journalist stressed that the war weakened Syria could not withstand such an attack, and Russia she also wouldn’t have been able to help. He writes that Russia is limited due to the small combat and numerical strength.

“In order to reflect the real attack on the United States on Syria, in this country, need to relocate almost half of the Russian army and Navy, including dozens of fighter and bomber aviation regiments, anti-aircraft missile and Radiotechnical units, reconnaissance units, electronic warfare, communications and institutions in the rear. But no such maneuvers from the Russian side is not observed”, – said the Khodarenok.

“At the same time, Moscow is categorically not allow in her presence with impunity beat Russian ally in the region. Loss of reputation for the Kremlin in this case would be too great. In addition to the shame of the US military action against Assad could lead, without exaggeration, for the actual eliminate Russia as a competitor in global Affairs”, – he stressed.
