Rep. Liz Cheney on Sunday agreed with Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the use of chemical weapons should be a “red line” for NATO to intervene in Ukraine.
“I think that we in the West, the United States and NATO — we need to stop telling the Russians what we won't do,” Cheney (R-Wyo.) said. “We need to be very clear that we are considering all options, that the use of chemical weapons is certainly something that would alter our calculations.”
Russian forces have bombed schools, hospitals and other civilian centers within the four weeks of their assault on Ukraine. Now, global leaders are concerned Russia is about to employ the use of chemical weapons.
Earlier in the month, Russia accused Ukraine of harboring chemical weapons, which U.S. officials believe to be a “false-flag” strategy to give Russia justification to use its own chemical or biological weaponry.
The term “red line” was also used by then-President Barack Obama in 2013. Obama had threatened airstrikes against Syrian government forces as a consequence for using chemical weapons. In that situation, Russian leader Vladimir Putin offered to force close ally Syrian President Bashar Assad to surrender his chemical arsenal if Obama promised not to bomb.

The truth is whatever they say it is.
War is on the horizon.
It was already used. The Nazis broke a tank with ammonia in Sumy and scream that it is a Russian chemical attack. Surprisingly, the MSM isn’t catching it up so far.
NATO is planning a chemical attack no doubt. Luckily this lunatic has absolutely no say in the response. Sleepy isn’t going to wake up just to go to war with Russia but if he is ousted, all bets are off. It’s cute how her and that Kinzer clown represent about 100k people total and act like they speak for 300m people
No, this was faked by our side 3 times in Syria. This psycho neocon witch is going to get us into a nuclear war. The idiot has just telegraphed to the nazis what needs to happen for NATO to join in on their side.
So it will quickly happen.
Sounds like “a tell”.
Let’s assume for a moment that chemical weapons will be used in Ukraine. Then take your pick:
A. They will be used by an increasingly desperate Putin to pull out a win.
B. They will be used by the CIA as a false-flag operation to get the US involved.
C. They will be used by Ukraine as a false-flag operation to get the US involved.
I’m a betting man. But anything is possible here. So I believe I’d sit this bet out.
The Bush League Republican red line that Trump crossed was daring to secure the border and stop the invasion of the USA.
They colluded with Democrats to cheat him out to keep the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) going.
War is on the horizon.
Not much consolation when that is only six miles away.
Of course for the folks in Mariupol it’s a little closer.
The MSM is repeating and amplifing the Uke propaganda, and completely blacking out any anti-Uke news.
Liz is considering all options in case Vlad is considering all options.
AT least we can have the happy feeling of knowing Cheyenne and her hometown of DC are the very pinnacle of the Russian ICBM target list. They’ll get those 58 megaton “Tsar Bombas”.
The Cheney family has never seen a war they didn’t want to profit from. Especially as long as some other family’s kids were doing the fighting & dying.
D) toxins are accidentally released from a Fauci sponsored biotech lab in a combat zone, with A through C all offered as alternative explanations.
Obviously Russia has no need to use chemical weapons and wouldn’t want the negative press that comes with it. If there is a claim of Russia using chemical weapons to justify NATO involvement, few are going to believe such a story.
War monger, just like her father.
“we need to stop telling the Russians what we won’t do”
I can’t believe that I found something that Cheney and I agree with. This should apply to all foreign policy matters.
My other foreign policy pet peeve is drawing lines in the sand without backing them up.
I don’t even wanna know what is happening to him to make his eyes bug out like that. Chasten giving it to him right up the wazzoo I bet.
I’m sorry, who? This cheney bitch does not speak for me. And why would Russia use chemical weapons? They have the fire power to do anything they want.
