Did Russia Just Strike Poland? No, Ukraine Did!
The Gateway Pundit ^ | November 15, 2022 at 8:40pm | Larry Johnson

Today (Tuesday) marks the largest Russian bombardment of Ukraine with precision guided missiles and drones. The Ukrainian equivalent of the Pentagon reported was struck in Kiev. And Western media now is reporting frantically that Russia fired a missile at a target in Poland. Russia denies it vehemently and initial pictures of the “device” that landed in Poland appear to show a S-300 anti-air defense missile. The big unanswered question is whether this was an error, i.e., Ukraine fired at incoming Russian missiles and the S-300 missed its target and fell inside Polish territory, or was it an attempt to manufacture a false flag, i.e., blame Russia for firing the missile and create a pretext to invoke Article 5 of the NATO treaty and bring the rest of NATO into the war to stop Russia. The jury is still out.

The picture below shows first, one of the fragments of the S-300 that landed in Poland with a bang, and second, a fully intact S-300 rocket.

Neither Poland nor the Brits appear inclined to wait for facts to develop and are rattling swords about the need to invoke article 5 of the NATO Charter.

The United States, by contrast, is exercising great caution. Part of the reason for that hesitancy is the financial collapse of FTX, which is exposing evidence that the Democrats, some Republicans, the Ukrainians and FTX organized an elaborate financial kickback scheme. The scheme involved promising members of Congress who sent money to Ukraine a hefty contribution in turn from a Democrat benefactor. In this case, the owner of FTX. Once the U.S. dollars were credited to Ukraine’s account, President Zelensky and his partners diverted some of the proceeds to purchase crypto currency from FTX...

Remember the duplicitous Governor (Charles Durning) in "The Best Little Whitehouse In Texas"...?

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep,
now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and,
ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
Cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

Are you calling Poland's President a Russian propagandist?

The blast crater is too large to have been made by a surface-to-air missile. It was made by a surface-to-surface missile. Also, the detonation criteria was contact with a surface, logically inconsistent with a SAM.

Poland, NATO Agree Deadly Polish Border ‘Russian Attack’ Was Errant Ukrainian Missile

> NOV 16
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/poland-nato-agree-deadly-poland-border-russian-attack-was-errant-ukrainian-missile

A mere less than 24 hours ago, before the dust had settled from the explosion and before investigators could come to any definitive conclusions after the deadly incident on the Polish border village of Przewodów, the Western public was already being harangued and forewarned to stay away from ‘conspiracy theories’ as the early mainstream headlines - pushed especially based on an anonymous US official in an Associated Press report - were fast out the gate with “Russian missiles hit Poland, killing two”.

“Article 5” - the NATO collective defense treaty which many had long worried would be the first invoked act leading to WWIII, began trending on Twitter, as Western officials issued confident statements of ‘solidarity’. Almost immediately and without evidence, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky demanded “action” from the West over the supposed brazen aggression against a NATO member. “Hitting NATO territory with missiles… This is a Russian missile attack on collective security! This is a really significant escalation. Action is needed,” Zelensky said his Tuesday night video address.

If NATO does anything they best come to the aide of a fellow member regarding missile strikes on Poland territory by a non-NATO country. NATO knows a thing or two about taking out infrastructure. Get to it.

S-300 missiles are big...some of them have more HE than a 500 pound GP bomb.

Assuming it was an S-300 missile, then what I can't understand is why it didn't self destruct when it lost track on the target.

If it was an S-300 missile, then it is most certainly Ukrainian since the missiles don't have the range to fly from eastern Ukraine to Poland.

“the early mainstream headlines - pushed especially based on an anonymous US official in an Associated Press report - were fast out the gate with “Russian missiles hit Poland, killing two”.”

Just like with so many lies of the disinformation media, the false story stays on the internet forever, available for any search about ...... missile kills farmer in Poland. Possibly even pushed to the top by Google, etc.

Infuriating.
