Actually probably not.
It was Ukraine, which restrained itself from attack on Russian territory in the beginning of the war. Russians have the tendency to rally around the leader when attacked, so attack on Russia could backfire.
But now, Ukraine realized the Russians are thoroughly fed up with this enterprise, so attack on Russian soil will not get them excited to support Putin anymore!

lol… if it was a weekend we could use these as a drinking game. We are doing nothing short of inciting nuclear holocaust.
That would get gates and co closer to their population targets much faster.

What surprises me is since Russia having air superiority, as everyone seems to agree; why haven’t they destroyed the drone launch sites, warehouses and manufacturing facilities??

Moscow doesn't have air superiority over Ukraine, which is why they're resorting to crude glide bombs that are launched from far enough away that Ukrainian missiles can't take down the launching aircraft. Glide bombs haven't the range to reach the factories, and it takes no infrastructure at all to launch these small drones, so there's nothing to hit.

Vlad shows much restraint, your collective West, senile Joe, and St Zelensky show nothing but escalation and gross incompetence …..in everything they touch.

Things would be much different if the West didn’t have such comical leadership.

My two impressions:

1. Drone warfare is where it’s at. The US better start cranking them out like there’s no tomorrow.

2. I’m cool with anything that hurts Putin’s Russia right now.

Their “air superiority” is only over Russian territory 40 miles or so from the Ukraine border. Closer and they are shot down; with the arrival of F-16s, sometime this year, that distance will be significantly pushed back.

The West is rapidly climbing the escalation ladder.


A ladder erected by Lil’ Putin.

well he doing the next best thing by slow walking the military aid they need, allowing you pals to kill more UKR troops. Now the House GOP has chimed in killing any further military aid until Joe changes his policy. So you see that politicians on both sides of the isle in the US are firmly in Putin’s Pocket.

Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for either of the strikes, but is known to be in the middle of a campaign of destruction against Russian industrial facilities.

Why would they not take credit, they are in a war, unless it wasn't a UK strike?

Don’t get excited - the target was NOT the reactor, but the steam vents.

So is it safe to assume you believe the opposite is true? That is:

3. Our adversary’s leader is inherently good and resembles the true God.

If you believe this about Putin, I feel sorry for you.

Of course, Glowie, these CIA guided attacks on Russian cities using ‘Ukranian” drones will not go unanswered.

Zeeping along into WW III all in the cause of Corrupt Ukraine and VIctoria Nuland. Keep that war propaganda Zeeping in here, Glowie.

We’d better not get drawn into a war on behalf of creepy Z. . And I don’t want to send him another weapon or dollar.

What did Ukraine ever do for us? Zip, zero, nada.

Both populations were shielded from the changing ideas of the world for over 70 years. Let’s knock it off with the blame.

Just go to the next step in evolution, which is peaceful resolution, or there won’t be any more steps.
