The result of the confession Jerusalem as the capital of Israel was what people should expect.When we are facing the real political life, and it connects to religion, we might see something, what happened in United Nations, when the President of The United States confesses Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Almost every other states in the world were against that decision, and the result was crushing for that action. So what is the point of the situation of Jerusalem, what was conquered by Israel Troops in 1967, and after that occupied by same government?
One reason for this conflict is the weapons what are dumped to the Middle East, and of course, the salesmen of the weapons wants that their products are the most effective in this operational area. And that is the reason, why Apache and MI-24 helicopters and tactical support planes like F-16 and SU-25 are very much in the television. Even if SU-25 "Frogfoot" seems little old fashion, it is easy to modify with "smart weapons kit" as a modern close support aircraft, and Israel has modified also MI-21 "Fishbeds" to operate with smart bombs, laser-guided missiles like "Maverick" and "Hellfire" and the most modern missiles like AIM-120 AMRAAM" if the weapon hard-points were changed. And there is of course capacity to operate with the Russian missiles. The SU-25 offers a cheap choice for expensive NATO-planes.
The reason why Israel dares to do that occupation is, that its government gets very much military aid from Washington, and this makes those rulers so brave with their actions against Palestine people. But as we might see there are many truths of that area and the occupation of the Palestine areas makes Israeli government very unpopular in that area. And the main role of the Israeli community is the hardcore militarism and one of the most important export articles of the country is military equipment. The reason why Washington gives support for Israel is that this nation is weak, and its capability for making war with the other nations depends on the support what Washington gives to it.
And that is very important because this denies Israel to slip into the hands of Russia. And of course, the reason for friendship between Israel and the USA is very simple. The USA can use Israel as the bridge-station if it wants to make the invasion into Middle-East. Another part of this strategy is wealthy states in the Gulf area, what have weak military forces. Those states must give military bases for the United States Air Force, and even if the tactical aircraft can operate from carriers, the airborne tanker aircraft and heavy cargo planes need the fixed runways.
Those aircraft are the necessary part of giving airborne refueling capacity for strategic bombers and the tanks and other protection and technical support units of that airbase. In this strategy, the airborne refueling aircraft gives operational support also for the United States global nuclear task force, and also those military bases will act as the emergency landing sites for B-1 and B-52 bombers. Also, this strategic set is mentioned for denying Russia take control of all oil production in the Middle East. The problem of that area is that the USA and its allies have the technological advantage, but Russia and its allies control the oil fields. Of course, Russian technology is also good and in the last sentence, I meant technology, what is used by local actors. The Russian military also wants to advantage its global strike capacity, and it's airplanes need same kind of support than the USA:s airplanes. So this guarantees the Russian interest to the Middle East.
The problem is that Russia controls the route of the gas to Europe, and it wants to connect the European energy solution for Russian gas, and that's why the situation in Syria is very suitable for Russian interests. If the Middle East is the unstable area, the Russian oils and gas will become more interesting opportunity for Europe, and of course, if those contracts are cheap enough, the advantage of the Russian political and social environment might be without notice. And I think that European leaders won't want to connect European energy solutions the goodwill of Turkey or some other Islamic states. If Russia takes control of the coastline of Georgia, the gas line from the Middle East to Europe will be under Russian control. And it will give political advantages for Vladimir Putin and Kreml.
