Ukraine for the first time has begun using long-range ballistic missiles provided secretly by the United States, bombing a Russian military airfield in Crimea last week and Russian forces in another occupied area overnight, American officials said Wednesday.

Gotta love it.
Pause. "We can't be trusted!"
Oh really. What’s Russia going to do about it? Invade Ukraine?
________________________________________________________
You’re right, there’s nothing overtly or covertly that Russia could possible do about it? /s
Furthermore, this will undermine the thesis that the United States ever desired to push NATO to the very borders of Russia. /s
In any event this whole military adventure has been a complete debacle for Putin.

Oh sure...Putin is almost as afraid losing this conflict strategically as the Democrats are of losing control of California.
Six O’clock AM the guns will started with a barge on Poland and Latvia. Thats my guess. What does your Ouija Board say for WW III?
The Ukrainians have already been fed to the meatgrindrs by Little Vloddy and the West, and they're both covering up that fact.
It's also why the mutinies and refusals to obey orders to march into the meatgrindrs are happening in a big big way.
ATACMS to the front! Sic em. Make the Orcs pay dearly.
A few? 1,000 ATACMS is “few”?
It's called "obtuseness". You suffer from it.
“Furthermore, this will undermine the thesis that the United States ever desired to push NATO to the very borders of Russia.”
NATO never pushed its borders up against Russia. Not at all. Countries along Russia’s border whom Russia threatened with invasion freely sought membership in NATO.
Sweden and Finland were actually against joining NATO. Right up until Russia sent nuclear armed aircraft into their sovereign airspace.
Russia convinced Sweden and Finland to join NATO in the space of a few hours. That was something the USA wasn’t able to do in seventy years! Only Russia could do that.
Now what matters is defeating Russia in Ukraine and keeping them under sanction until such time as they swear off invading their neighbors.
And part of defeating Russia means Ukraine must take the war to the Russian people. The Russians cheer and brag when they destroy apartments, schools, and hospitals in Ukraine now we can see how they like it when they can’t refine oil, they can’t turn on their lights, and when their central steam plants stop operating.
Let them feel the pain their damnable dictator inflicted on Ukraine!
Ukraine ping
OVERTIME: [How about this: Start an atomic war.
They have repeatedly said they would if they were cornered.
A document leaked by a US offical to the New York Times claimed that the CIA assessed the probaility to be “50-50”.
.
In war ganes, when one side sues an atomic bomb the other side escalates, until they both destroy the world.]
A Russia completely overrun can come back, maybe even take over the lower 48. A Russia killed to the last, because its leaders used nukes against a peer nuclear power, will never again be anything, except a depopulated province of the Mongols in the neighboring Stans.
Russian first use nuclear threats are empty ones not because the leaders are nice guys but because at minimum the Friends and Family nuclear targeting plan will take care of anyone remotely associated with them, permanently. Jimmy Carter was a mega dove, but even in his time, retaliatory nuclear targeting emphasized the elimination of ethnic Russians by default, an objective Zbig, Carter’s NSA, made sure to emphasize.
If you love Russia and hate Ukraine, nothing but the destruction of Ukraine and its incorporation into the Russian empire will make you happy. For others indifferent between the two, there is no possibility of Russia using nukes. It did not when it lost half its territory with the collapse of the original Russian empire in the 90s. Why would it do so over a loss in Ukraine that’s not even 10% of that earlier loss, that it did not even own at the beginning of the invasion?
Especially when a nuclear first strike would mean the end of Russia for the rest of time? Russia can come back even from foreign occupation. It will never come back from a pile of ashes. To put this in terms you can understand, Russia will not use nukes for the same reason not even the biggest Ukraine-hating Russophile has tried to take out his Congressman for his Ukraine vote. His fear of the personal consequences keeps his weapon holstered.
Well; dat cat's outta da bag!
“Six O’clock AM the guns will started with a barge on Poland and Latvia. Thats my guess. What does your Ouija Board say for WW III?”
It says it will be much slower and sloppier getting going. More like WWI. French troops in Ukraine will test that theory.
Do you think it would have been much different if we had FR in 1939?
Every post would be accusing someone of being a “Hitler Lover” or “FDR Lover”.
buzz off, zeeper.
