What is generally not understood in the West because the media/gov'ts has bias is that Russia cultivates good relationships all across the world- just not in the Western world: 10% of the world population vs 90%. (Middle East, Africa, Asia etc). They and China position themselves as the alternative to the West. They probably already shared a lot of advanced technologies with Iran long ago, when the war started Iran was the first to rush in to help. Iran however seems to have a problem not getting their top people assassinated by the Israelis.

Russia can share nuclear, chemical (particularly thermobarbaric) and missile tech schematics , which they probably already do. Thermobarbaric weapons are extremely potent as demonstrated in the Ukraine. Russia also has vast raw materials, which they can deliver to allied countries. Russia can also offer intelligence information and also their vast combat experience (via advisors) from the War in Ukraine. Basically if Iran choses to inflict mass civilian deaths (as Israel loves doing to their neighbors) they should be able to do so, unless they are afraid of an even more powerful Israeli response.

The parade is very casual/seems directed to small town MAGA. It resembles a 'suburban America' military parade x 100 that would go through a couple of towns on Veteran's day. The ending is especially weird, with the grandstand forced to watch boring country music with a captive audience of serviceman. Much of the country do not like or listen to country music.

I think the problem here for the American people is if the Democrats stay in power for the next 20 years and increase the debt by tens of trillions & distribute more of the nation's wealth to billionaires, finance, and corporations- sometime the state will drive off a cliff. Trump is a loser who provides fool's hopes for a desperate people, (and has always been one) but the fact of the matter is the Democrats can't kill 50% of the US population or pretend that they don't exist. Half of the country looks like Ukraine right now.

probably formalizing what was already occurring. Russia also has a similar pact with North Korea. What they can do is to share technologies (nuclear, chemical weapons, missile, drone etc that their allies don't have) and also deliver strategic raw materials. Iran provided significant aid to Russia, mainly thousands upon thousands of Geran drones used to attack Ukrainian energy infrastructure and also the schematics to build Geran factories in Russia, which the Russians already produced. They also provided ammunition supplies.

I think it's Andrea

most of the hardware displayed at the US 250 yr. army parade is old stuff from the cold war. The tanks and AFVs have been demonstrated as being easily knocked out/destroyed in Ukraine. almost no drones and missiles were shown, which are the most important part of modern warfare There's been very little new kit adopted in the army in the past 30 yrs.

^ there's a (former) top model here on BZ that looks like cattiea, I forgot her name though. tiktok has tons of beautiful faces. They usually don't have model heights but their faces are on par..

China's 70th anniversary parade is probably the most grandiose one in the whole world:

Age 21 Leon and Age 27 Leon. I did notice that he looked older
