Putin to parade Russian military might before Netanyahu ahead of potential Israeli-Iranian clash

President Vladimir Putin’s invitation to Prime Minister Binyamin to sit with him on the saluting stand of the Victory March in Moscow was a signal honor for Netanyahu and Israel. The march takes place on Wednesday, May 10 and marks the 73rd anniversary of Russia’s defeat of Nazi Germany. This annual parade is the Moscow’s primary showcase for the latest Russian weapons systems and its military might. Israel’s Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman has commented of late that if Russian weaponry deployed in Syria is used against the Israeli army, the IDF won’t hesitate to strike back. He was referring to the advanced S-400 and S-300 air defense systems that Russia has deployed in Syria. Putin appears to calculate that Netanyahu will be so impressed by Russia’s awesome military prowess when it unfolds before him that he will go home and advise Lieberman to talk less.
This Kremlin tactic is not new. Often Russian leaders invite guests of honor to view a stunning Russian display of strength before taking them aside for a talking-to about what is expected of them. In the case of Netanyahu, Putin will sit him down in his Kremlin office to discuss the fate of the nuclear deal with Iran and the situation in Syria. Putin has timed his invitation with careful aforethought. It takes place three days before the May 12 deadline for President Donald Trump to re-certify, or back out of, the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran and five days before the May 14 dedication of the newly-relocated US embassy in Jerusalem. Trump may decide to attend this event.

The Russian president has prepared six messages for conveying directly to Netanyahu on Wednesday:

  1. Moscow has concluded that a military clash between Israel and Iran is inevitable.
  2. Stop muscle-flexing against Russian forces in Syria, he will warn. If you mess with us, it will boomerang against you.
  3. Consider this: If Donald Trump takes the United States out of the nuclear deal with Iran, which Netanyahu is strongly urging him to do, then no one is left in the Middle East capable of engaging Tehran for passing messages between Jerusalem and Tehran.
  4. This sort of conduit is vital, especially in the event of the outbreak of Israeli-Iranian hostilities in Syria, as widely predicted.
  5. It is even more important to have a party available with access to both sides to carry forward discussions for a cessation of hostilities between the belligerents.
  6. Putin asked Netanyahu for an unambiguous promise that, if warfare erupts with Iran, Israel forces will not harm a single Russian soldier or weapons system.

    This sentence had me laughing. This midget Putin is a big time bully! The only one who needsa “talking-to” is him and his despicable behavior. Get lost Putin!

      You are right, good point!
      However, the annulment of Gaza and transfer of Hamas out of vicinity with Israel requires some serious diplomatic efforts, this is why the main schedule and phases have to be discussed upfront and in private.
      Let us not forget that, for now, Israel is not a permanent member of the Security Council.

        Well, if we think a little, we may discern some parallels here.

        – For Russia – skirmishes at the border with Ukraine , unrest where there was mixed populations, Putin takes Crimea and allows Ukrainians to move out. Now there is peace, people have cooled down, and back to normal.

        – For Israel – skirmishes at the borders with Gaza, unrest where there is mixed populations, Natanyahu has to take Gaza and most of West Bank, and allow the fake Palestinians to move out. There will be peace, people will cool down, and start to live a good life.

        Is this Putin such a bad guy? Is there something to learn from him?

      Ezekiel 38

      “…a land of open cities; I shall come upon the tranquil, who dwell securely; all of them living without a wall, and they have no bars or doors.”

      upon a land of open cities: [Heb. פְּרָזוֹת,] dwellers in villages without a wall, who trust in their might and are not [so] afraid as to gather into fortified cities. פְּרָזוֹת is like (Deut. 3:5): “in addition to the very many open cities (עָרֵי הַפְרָזִי),” without a wall.

      Amos – Chapter 6

      1. Woe to those who are at ease in Zion and to those who are secure in the mountain of Samaria, those called the first of the nations, and the house of Israel has come to them.

      2. Proceed to Calneh and see, and go from there to the great Hamath, and go down to Gath of the Philistines-are they better than these kingdoms, or is their border greater than your border?

      3. You, who bring yourselves closer to the day of evil, and you bring near the dwelling amidst violence.

    One would think that Mr. Putin, in view of the “honor attendance opportunity” to attend such a specific (propaganda) event, would (very publicly) choose to invite the presidents of Syria, Iran or Turkey (or even all 3 of them at once) instead of the Prime Minister of Israel.
    One could just wonder what Putin would have to say to Netanyahu in private after the show is over.

    Seems to me that Iran benefits most from an interlocutor. If Russia doesn’t play that role, it won’t matter to Israel as much as it matters to Iran. And if this is the case, it’s not as much a threat to Israel as to Iran for the United States to leave (if they do) Iran and Israel to fight it out.

    If this Debka analysis is correct, Bibi should send a polite response declining the invitation. He has better things to do if this is the case. Putin cannot be trusted and he is also very wary of Israel’s own ability to cause him trouble. Let Putin chase Bibi. His forces are a long way from home, whereas, Israel is defending its homeland. Massive difference. Putin is biting off more than he can chew as well, and the iran- Israeli war will decimate everything he has in the area.

      The correct reading of this is that Russia and its allies have achieved victory in Syria and that Netanyahu better just stand aside and watch.

      Be exceedingly happy, O daughter of Zion; Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem. Behold! Your king shall come to you. He is just and victorious; humble, and riding a donkey and a foal, the offspring of [one of] she-donkeys.

      Behold the Lord God shall come with a strong [hand], and His arm rules for Him; behold His reward is with Him, and His recompense is before Him.

      Behold, the Lord announced to the end of the earth, “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold your salvation has come.’ ” Behold His reward is with Him, and His wage is before Him.

    Both Putin and Ali Khamenei have a big quagmire war on their hands which they can’t afford. If Trump slaps sanctions on the fascist Islamic Terror State of Iran, then they will be deterred, especially if their nuclear installations are levelled. The Soviets are in bed with the wrong allies and realize that they have won the battles but lost the war because those taking over do not want them there forever – the Soviets were only needed to save the fascists in Syria and have outlived their usefulness. Putin is trying to put lipstick on a pig.

    Netanyahu is backed by the US, which is militarily superior to the Russians who have no desire to transfer the parade show of force from Moscow, to the harm of the front lines of the middle east. Not a single Russian, of the of the pretty-as-a-chocolate-box soldiers, already there, will be harmed, if they are removed to a safe distance, before hostilities between Israel and Iran, break out.

Israelis are no dummies, we won’t harm the Russians and so long as they don’t interfere with what we need to do to protect ourselves. It’s well known and Putin isn’t a stupid man. Poland could be manhandled, the Jews would be far less forgiving, not to mention we protect our prime minister. The IAF doesn’t take kindly to missiles being shot at its planes and they do have some special little secrets in store for those that try it. Bibi, the Jewish nation stands behind you!

    Strange that such A big country like Russia does not comprehend that if someone threatens to wipe you off the map and attain nuclear weapons, then it makes no difference how many hundreds of millions of Russians stand up for there defense, Israel will perish anyways so why not wipe out the Russians who enabled it to happen by supporting the Iranian accusation of nuclear weapons? It is like having A conversation with A crazy person which you should not do unless they say they are going to nuke you, so you might as well tell them that we are going to wipe every single enemy city off the map, and we could care less if you retaliate against America. Frankly my Jewish brothers, I think we should stop pretending and just be honest that all gentiles are to some degree our enemies, so if only those who live underground will survive, better to make it so that nobody can remember the Jews like the goys always wanted to head to Israel to mop up the survivors. Thankfully G-d runs the world, and the billionaires follow His commandments, so this is all useless bluster, Putin will not go to nuclear war for iran, so there is no message that needs to be delivered. They claim they will wipe Israel off the map, they claim they want nukes but do not yet have them, so Israel should do what it needs to, to defend themselves, and if Russia wants to escalate the matter further so be it. In G-d I trust.

      Both the Jews and the Russians have greatly suffered in WWII. The Red Army has defeated Hitler (with some help from US/UK). The parade in Moscow commemorates this victory over Hitler. There are thousands of Red Army solders’ descendants in IDF who are proud of their Nazi fighting Red Army grandfathers. This is the formal reason for an Israeli PM to stand in the Red Square and to honor the Russian Army who liberated many Jews from concentration camps. Bibi celebrating with Putin is a wink to Mr. Vekselberg and other Russian Jewish oligarchs that are not happy with US anti-Russian sanctions caused by Putin’s policies. Putin’s personal wealth depends on these oligarchs. If he nationalizes their companies the remaining flow of Western investments will completely dry up. To conclude, Bibi’s potential visit to Moscow is just a show. Russian pilots in Syrian uniform will fly Russian warplanes against IDF, Russian technicians will shoot missiles into Israel from Hezbullah bases, Russian cargo planes will resupply IRG and anybody else (Iraq, etc.) who is trying to hurt the only Jewish country in this hostile world. The US will not hit Russian bases in Syria, i.e. as always Israel will have to fight for its survival alone. The Israelis know that a defeat equals a Holocaust against Jewish Israelis. Bibi needs to make sure that Putin fully comprehends that not only Russian bases in Syria will be vaporized but Putin’s motherland will burn as well if Russia gets involved in the coming war in a significant way. This is the stark reality of Russia that prospered by saving some European Jews but eventually wondered to the brink of annihilation by substituting liberty for its people by a thuggish regime.

    Brovo Bibi!
    It is an honer for every educated Jewish person to pay tribute, salute and commemorate the Russian Nation and its sacrifices, courage, will and strength which brought down the fascistic Hitler regime, which was brought to power and financed by UK and USA. Together with its elected president Putin, Bibi is on the right side of history.
    The century long history of Colonialism, Imperialism, Slavery, Genocides, Holocaust perpetrated by West is ending – and it’s good this way.
    The west lost long ago every justification for leadership, now Russia took away the military means, and the far eastern countries will limit the economical ability of the west to dictate it’s will upon the rest of the world.
    Israel is a small country and has in conjunction with all major players to secure it’s safety.
    This will be possible only by diplomatic means in long run. Russia is a very important player in this regards.
    Israels media is too US oriented – it’s time to get a more balanced reporting. Debka should stay away from the biased pro American stand, to serve its own nation professionally, and to inform it properly.
