around 5500Considering Israeli nukes are a main focus of this chapter, how many nukes does Russia have compared to OTL?
Whoever said the cold war was over had obviously never told the spies that.And besides, Alexander needed to hurry. He had American military secrets on which he had got his hands on to pass on to the Russian government. Vladivostok, here did Alexander come!
I expect the Israeli government will be destabilized and the IDF will begin reforming and reviewing its performance. Heads may roll in the various intelligence and military communities. The Iraqis, Saudis and other states may also upgrade their intelligence and military following the success of the Syrians/Lebanese.A Pyrrhic victory! Thoughts?
Like a Syria like situation really.Interesting update. In my opinion, the Syrian Civil War will more than likely be butterflied away thanks to the rally around the flag effect. Benjamin Netanyahu would also be likely to win the 2009 Israeli elections and be more militaristic than in OTL.
Just one more question: in this TL Egypt is a "Libia" or "Syrian" situation from OTL?
Indeed!Whoever said the cold war was over had obviously never told the spies that.
Syria in the end will be interesting for the future. It's going to become more like an Authoritarian democracy bit as a totalitarian authoritarian like too though.This will bolster Syria's position in the Middle East- I wonder if Russia will insist on democratic reforms? Or is that asking too much ITTL?
Israel admitting it has nukes does both help and hurt, as they still have the intimidation factor, but with the number known it is obvious they cannot glass the whole M/E.
Wonder how losing the Golen Heights helps/hinders the Palestinians?
Also can Syria dick with Israel's water supply?
Indeed. Good prediction.I expect the Israeli government will be destabilized and the IDF will begin reforming and reviewing its performance. Heads may roll in the various intelligence and military communities. The Iraqis, Saudis and other states may also upgrade their intelligence and military following the success of the Syrians/Lebanese.
So, what figures would be covered here in this "interlude"?most probably in chapter 42 or 43.
Putin, Letov, Dugin, Yavlinsky, Nemtsov, The Russian royal family etcSo, what figures would be covered here in this "interlude"?
I do have plans for Scandinavia.Have to ask, any plans in the future in regards to Denmark and other Scandinavian countries?
Middle East will be interesting indeed!Wonder if Iraq still ends up in a more screwed up state here, wonder if Syria, with Russian will try and use the chance to bring back the proposal to unify the two countries that almost happened in 1979 before Saddam put the breaks on that when he rose into power. Don't know if it'll bring order back to the Middle East for removing the borders left by the Allied Powers after the WWI might win the Russians much goodwill from the people in the area. Then again that's my own thoughts...
Oh, come on.agreed because if israel is lost the jews from world will use the economic power to distebalize the middle east you dont undersistimate the economic power
