The only semi-reasonable reason to publish such a claim is if US intel had absolutely nothing to do with locating the generals (i.e., old-fashioned spies were ratting them out, or Ukrainians were intercepting radio communications directly). It would still be idiotic since the Russians can interpret this as the US being at war with Rusia, and we’re off to the races. It’s funny how these nuts who shame us for using an incandescent light bulb don’t mind gambling with WWIII and a nuclear holocaust.

The Kremlin/QAnon narrative seems to be that Biden and the Neocons (read, Joos) are helping the Ukrainian “Nazis.”

That’s a really good ‘toon. Even if you don’t agree with it, it’s clever...

‘’ , it is because the Neocons and the Dem elites are trying to goad Putin into a direct military retaliation against the US ’’

————-

It wont be direct, but one of the justification for killing Solemani was his involvement in producing some nasty IEDs that killed and maimed thousands of our troops

These folks in the Biden administration and military are obviously trying to compensate for Afghanistan et al and have thrown all prudence to the wind.

The current civilian and military leadership of this country are beyond incompetence

I personally don’t have a problem with secretly sharing secret intelligence with the Ukrainians to help them.

I do have a problem with secretly sharing secret intelligence with the Ukrainians then having the Neocon/Dem elites announce these secrets to the world in the pages of the New York Times and rub the Russians’ face in it.

No doubt the Russians assumed this was happening all along.

This of course once again illustrates the problem of having a deep state hostile to the USA and our history and principles in control of our foreign and defense policies.

Sparking a war between the USA and Russia may be in the interests of the Neocon/Dem elite global agenda, but it is not in the interest of Americans.

We’ve seen variations of this script before, such as when US intelligence agencies and law enforcement worked with agents of the Hillary campaign to fake Trump-Russia collusion in an attempt to install their preferred president.

This is retaliation for a host of cyberattacks and cyber threats over the years, plus endless hostile ratf***ing over everything. Russia has often not played nice.

Thats one way to look at it.

China has been far worse over cyberattacks fyi.

Well in the moments as you see those contrails and you realize that those are all missiles coming to destroy the United States in the last couple minutes you know who to thank.

according to senior American officials.

Are these the same senior American officials who’ve been advocating poking the bear until a nuclear war is triggered? Just asking!

Yes. This appears to be information that if true, should be kept confidential.
.............................................
Yeah right. Keep it confidential because in the Swamp that’s easy to accomplish. Geez!!

part of the same effort IMO:

US Rep. Adam Kinzinger introduces measure to allow US military intervention in Ukraine if Russia uses chemical, biological weapons

What’s horrifying is that tens of millions of Democrats are too stupid to realize that the politicians they vote for are putting their lives at risk by this nonsense!

Obviously, the Ukrainians are using the information to a great effect so I doubt that they are a source of the leaks. The Democrats are in charge of our government now so they can't help it but to rub the Russians' face in it when all they had to do was too STFU. We are at a risk of further escalation. This may be more like 1914 here if we are not careful.

goad Putin into a direct military retaliation against the US in order to justify sending US troops into Ukraine to fight the Russians

me thinks it's more to get Putin to attack the US directly as a way for the DC establishment to postpone the 2022/2024 elections.

The targeting help is part of a classified effort by the Biden administration.

Hey NYTs, this is why no one spoke to you during WWII. Hitler and Tojo would have been your biggest supporters.
