Re: Russian aircraft drone attack
NATO needs to be Very careful and not run in - all blazing, the Peace conference is today and all sides need to be locked in a room till Peace comes out from the meeting.
Remember - Any escalation that could involve nukes will lead to a World Destruction scenario.

Re: PlanesTv
In my opinion they are the best The footage is excellent and their commentary for riat and others was faultless, which is remarkable considering riat spans 5 days.
