Summary
Ukraine fired US-made ATACMS missiles into Russia’s Bryansk region, marking the first time Ukraine has used these longer-range weapons to strike targets deep inside Russia.
The attack comes after the Biden administration authorized Ukraine to use these weapons against targets inside Russia.
In response, President Putin updated Russia’s nuclear doctrine, labeling aggression from non-nuclear states supported by nuclear powers as a joint attack on Russia.
I wonder what the mental calculus about this is, considering that Biden knows a fucking moron is going to have to handle the fallout
Well…
I think he know Trump is going to help Russia in every way possible, so he might as well let Ukraine get since more serious hits in now while they can
yeah… with ukraine already talking diplomatic peace talks, i think they’re just trying to use the next 60 days to get the best possible terms
I think he’s delivering on his promises to the MIC to maximize the money they invested in him before Trump enters office. If he gets us wrapped up in a conflict that requires deployment of US troops, so much the better for the stockholders depending on the Federal Government to get us as involved as possible.
Trump, while he did it for the wrong reasons, did pull the US military out of foreign wars during his first term. I imagine Raytheon and Boeing and Lockheed definitely do not want that.
Lol, my dude… You do remember he also ended the nuclear agreement with Iran and then assassinated their most idolized military commander?
The pretext of Israel’s ethnic cleansing is to rope America into a hot war with Iran. Trump is and has always been great for the mic.
Such a bad take.
I recall, yes.
It feels very odd to watch an American president do correct things for the wrong reasons. It’s much more familiar to watch people like Bush, Obama, and Biden doing the wrong things for reasons that aren’t provided to the public, because the narratives given around US wars are nearly always false.
Lol, war with Iran… A correct thing?
No, I’m referring to getting us out of Afghanistan and Syria specifically.
But you’ve noted, surely, that the US does largely support war with Iran by funneling WMD’s to Israel, right? Unless you voted Green, you explicitly lent your support to it via your ballot.
Oh yeah, how are the people in those two countries doing now?
Yeah, it was pretty much guaranteed after the pull out from the nuclear deal…almost like elections have consequences.
Lol, it’s a two party system. If you voted green you still lent your support to supporting a genocide, just in an incredibly stupid way.
We all pay taxes to a government supporting a genocide, some of us just don’t want it to get even worse.
I could not care less. I’m more concerned with how people are doing here in the US.
I’m sure feeding WMD’s to the Israelis for use against Iran won’t be problematic for that.
False. The Greens are the only party expressly opposed to helping Israel murder people at will, but you can create whatever justification you like for the support you lend to it.
Russia says there’s going to be no peace talks without recognizing the new boundaries so, might as well carve out a big part of Russia for the Ukraine
Ukraine*. “the Ukraine” is an outdated term coined by people who never recognized Ukraine’s cultural sovereignty
“The Ukraine” and “Kiev” were two outdated 80s terms I had to update in my head when the war started.
one of my best friends told me in 2020 it hurt her feelings a little when people used the term. not because they hurt her feelings, but because it meant societally, our understanding of her and her family’s struggles came predominantly from people who hated them. it’s worth relearning for the people it effects.
Personally, I don’t want WW3 for stupid Ukraine.
Territorial freeze where they at works for me, just hope they don’t start a ww3
Give up a chunk of your own country to “apease” putin then. What do you think about that? Maybe Alaska if you’re American?
It’s Russia the agressor, not Ukraine.
Look its geopolitics/ real politics whatever u want to call it.
I hope u not gonna deny that US funded that overthrow in Ukraine and otherwise meddled there for decades?
Ukraine borders Russia so I can understand they don’t want hostile state right there, especially with nuclear ambitions. So what followed is just what followed.
Imo deal was pretty fair for them in the beginning, but as zelensky refused to settle - well body costs got higher so now it’s going to have to be territorial losses and they going to get higher with time.
Imo Ukraine can’t win this and Trump agrees,so might as well settle it. Imo conditions for Ukrainians are more than fair - Russia gives them citizenship, all the native rights, it’s very different from how Israeli treat Palestinians for example - pure genicide
Make sure to add some salt to your next mouthful of vatnik propaganda
thats the spirit.
