Sort of like the Russian Buk antiaircraft system the shot that Dutch airliner down with, killing 298 innocent people?
You OK with that?
From the last US customs report I read, small arms smuggling into Mexico begins in eastern Europe and Germany. From there, the arms are shipped into Venezuela. From Venezuela, arms merchants smuggle the weapons into Central America. Then it’s a short trip into Mexico. Soon, we’ll see Mexican drug cartels armed with manpads, RPGs, mortars and machineguns.
What are the chances of Biden weapons ending up in the southern United States? You tell me.
Russians as a people make Palestinians seem honorable that’s how scummy they are. And like you they adore their kgb master. But you did make it to three in counting, way to go progress!
“Sort of like the Russian Buk antiaircraft system the shot that Dutch airliner down with, killing 298 innocent people?

I recall that incident. Everyone blamed the Russians because according to the media they were the only ones that had BUK1s.
Funny how the Ukrainians are now bragging about using their BUK1s to shoot down russian planes. I thought they didn’t have any nor the trained personnel to use them??
“Yeah I can see some of those surface to air manpads getting into terrorist hands…no doubt…soon to bring down commercial airliners…”
After Russia’s failed Afghanistan venture, there was incredible terrorism concern about the 300 stingers that we donated to the Taliban and were simply lost.
Now we are sending thousands of manpads, antitank weapons, mines, portable drones, small arms, heavy machineguns, artillery, etc to Ukraine.
Meanwhile Ukraine is turning prisoners out and forcibly conscripting them to fight. Essentially we are putting thousands of extremely dangerous & unaccountable weapons into the hands of Ukrainian mafia members. What could go wrong????
I wonder what the going price for a case of javelins or stingers is in Kyiv these days? And how sketchy would a customer have to be for the Ukrainian mob to turn them away?
The Dutch investigation discovered that it was Buc operated and fired by the Russian 53rd Antiaircraft Regiment from eastern Ukraine territory. The Russians have refused to turn them over for trial.
Not Lancaster, and not a Russian tank (well it is now).
That investigation was based on the narrative that former com block Ukraine did not have any such soviet weapons. Why would a former soviet country have soviet weapons???
Am pretty sure that the info from the current conflict soundly refutes that.
Why “some”?
There is a video on Telegram of the Ukrainian officer selling the DNR militia a BTR for $15k and a Javelin for R100k ($1300).
So the investigating team didn’t do their job properly, in you opinion?
