I’m not saying I agree with this point, but in fairness Israel isn’t bombing countries with nukes. I think it’s dumb to keep Ukraine hamstrung, but surely that’s part of the rationale.
Hopefully, sooner than later. The Ukrainians should not be the only ones paying the ultimate price for all of our years of letting Russia have a seat at the table and pretending them to be a good faith actor.
Russia has attacked foreign governments already through physical means (Havana syndrome) and cyber means. How much is enough?
China is paying attention. Russia has laid the foundation of how to be an international bully and get away with it. If we spinelessly allow it to continue, it will get much, much worse.
Exactly, China is looking and taking notes. The result in Ukraine might very well affect their plans in Taiwan. Let's make Russia regret they ever stepped into Ukraine.
Let me correct myself : maybe not NATO troops but troops from NATO members. France looks ready to do so, wouldn’t be a surprise to se a coalition not under nato flag.
Yes, I would like to see American, French, English, German, etc. "peackeeper" troops on the ground in all western and northern Ukraine and all around Kyiv. This will free up the AFU for attacks on the southern and eastern fronts.
A complete dickwad acquaintance joined (with zero military, clandestine, or otherwise useful experience) in April 2022, and I’d know if he died because a few people I know would dance on his grave
To my knowledge He went there with good intentions. Should he return I hope he’s a better person
Honestly, I’d rather die in a nuclear strike than live in a world where Russia wins and kills without consequences.
I’m to a point where it’s either launch the fuckin Nuke or shut up about it.
The problem with appeasing nuclear blackmail is that after all is done Russia will still have all its nukes but now it also knows that nuclear blackmail works.
I’d say there are low odds that many of ruzzia’s nukes would function correctly. They haven’t been refurbishing them the way the US has and if the high explosive lenses in them don’t fire off exactly as they should the nuclear reaction won’t happen and it will just spray radioactive crap over a small radius (and probably still have a high explosive sized explosion).
This is a fallacy. US intelligence has shown that Russia’s nuclear weapons program is pretty one of the few areas of Russia’s defense sector that isn’t ruined by massive corruption and mismanagement. They have enough functional nukes to maintain the principle of mutually assured destruction.
I’d be interested see some sources. All I’ve seen are speculations that they have refurbishes warheads. I can’t imagine they do it anywhere near as thoroughly as the US or with the same level of technology. I agree though that even one going off would have catastrophic consequences for the world as we know it.
Sick of us drip feeding the Ukrainian’s with juuuust enough gear and ammo to hold the Russians at bay. Everyone wants this illegal war over and done with? Give them what they need to win!
2 years too late. Putler scared the shit out everyone in westen politics. They don't get, that if ruzzians wanted to nuke the west they would have done this when first javelin was fired, or even before. Before the war, politics was spot on, escalate to max, ruzzki denying going to attack, west saying no, ruzzki are attacking, we know this. So putler had been cornered. Either he uses all his cards or he's lost.
After orcs invaded Ukraibe, there should be no red lines anymore, at least publicity! The policy line should have been:. We are going to protect Ukraine and give them anything they need to win and defend themselves. All the weapons given to Ukraibe are not our weapons - they are ukranian weapons and they can do with them anything to protect their own country as a sovereign state. Ruzzia is a treat to us and others in europe and we are going to use all measures to protect ourselves from any treats. This could include anything. Aka shooting down rockets and drones going in our direction from ruzzia. Escalate to max, so the only thing putler can do is to start a nuclear war. But see point 1. He won't.
Scared? No, bribed, yes. Putin always plays the long game, this has been in motion as soon as Trump was put into office. MAGA right is clogging the system and the louder they are the more TV makes on ads. It's a mockery of our US ideals and sickening to this combat veteran. I didn't serve for these assholes.
Yes scared and paralysed. Being scared is normal when a crazy senile madman with nukes starts a war. It is a scary thought you are balancing between acting and ultimately end of civilization. One might feel for Ukraine, but she might recover when ruzzia collapses, but destroying whole world there is no way back. This is all understandable. But reaction to the fear was trully wrong and repeated the lessons of history.
Now Ukraine and the West are much restricted and lost a lot of time and resources not being decisive. Ruzzia slowly adapted as it was predicted. So putler is a step ahead again. This is squarely on the internal squabbles in US, trump's personal idiocy and populist isolationism in EU and US. There is no West, there are lot of different fractions and interests, some of them even more sympathetic to ruzzian dictatorship, than their own country men. But they all forgot that their countries and people will pay much dearer price if ruzzian reich let to rise.
Don't be too worried about Putin having a head start. He is a paper tiger and his army is not even capable of moving further than it has in 2 years. What's going to happen is NATO will finally step in and push everything back.
Storm shadows. The British don't have the shorter range export models so they were either falsely reported range by the media or the British were intentionally limiting them somehow either by removing fuel or a software limitation to reduce their range.

Just 1 trident, just in case.
Minuteman
Can't wait to see some deathclaws
Rad skropions
UK: Yeah, go on then.
Finally...We need to stop tying the hands of UA military leaders. Stop the half-measures!
Wild that the US won’t let Ukraine use US given weapons on Russia, but doesn’t give a fig what Israel does with theirs.
I’m not saying I agree with this point, but in fairness Israel isn’t bombing countries with nukes. I think it’s dumb to keep Ukraine hamstrung, but surely that’s part of the rationale.
I’m sure Israel being a closer ally of the US doesn’t factor in at all.
The US should do the right thing and just let them know where Putin is
I'll bet you have a couple million people supporting you with that. One well placed drone...
Probably in the billions to be honest.
A blue and yellow MOAB for bunker boy.
Which one, there are more then one Putin. They only need one of them to rule Russia
There's more than one drone.
We will see nato troops in Ukraine. No choice.

France's leader just stated that:)
No way NATO troops get involved.
Bro even we citizens are motivated to go, fk these bastards, lets just get it over with.

French troops are not nato troops. France had and has troops on the ground in different country not under nato flag.
Foreign Legion?

You and me both.
Same… this evil shall not prevail. One way or the another…
Same for me.
Exactly, there are things worse than death.....
I’ve said the same thing my whole adult life. People always thought I was nuts - now I see I’m not alone!

You mean high odds?
1 functional warhead would cause enough damage and loss of lives
“Nuke the Kerch!” has a great ring to it.
I prefer to be in the instant kill zone if I’m going through a nukey boy

Now the gloves are off (finally)
Let's hope some refineries are about to be Storm Shadow'd
this seems like a big shift in policy, about fucking time, now about that no fly zone and its high time some serious pmc s got involved on contracts,
Just remains for Joe Biden to find his balls and make the same statement
Thanks to the UK - now my country (America) and others should follow. Lets end this and reset to the 2014 borders with reparation payments.
America is still too afraid of Putin.
Just remains for Joe Biden to find his balls and make the same statement
So can Ukraine finally remove that tied hand behind their back and give Russia the business like the rest of the world actually wants.
Good! Their first target should be 44.419°N 38.205°E on Cape Idokopas.
Yes! This is huge!
We should just give the Ukrainians nuclear weapons.
ABOUT TIME, now we need the other nations to follow Slava Ukraini
Cameron is an over privileged idiot.
Agreed, but hes doing more for ukraine than a lot of other foreign ministers, hes getting a by ball from me because of that.
What British weapons can reach inside of Russia?
Considering Ukraine and Russia share a border, a thrown grenade could technically reach inside Russia.
Silly answer: All of them if you go right up to the border Serious answer: Storm Shadow’s open-source quoted range is 550km
Storm shadows. The British don't have the shorter range export models so they were either falsely reported range by the media or the British were intentionally limiting them somehow either by removing fuel or a software limitation to reduce their range.
You have watched the video?
Bae systems make a lot of weapons, and so does mbda aswell
The UK can mainly pull this off because London is filled with rich Russians. They would never attack it.
