Congressional warmonger trots out ‘map of Russia’ to 'untie Ukraine's hands' for deep strikes
X ^ | 5/23/24 | Sputnik

Posted on 05/23/2024 5:11:15 AM PDT by hardspunned

A map of Russian territory has been trotted out by House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul as a prop in Congress, as seen from footage published by C-SPAN.

McCaul was fervently advocating dropping US restrictions for Ukraine to hit targets inside Russia. McCaul rattled off a list of weapons funneled to the Kiev regime, including long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and HIMARS, claiming that restrictions on their use meant that Ukrainians had “they hands tied behind their backs.”

The MIC has implemented a full court press on its Congressional stooges. They will get their WWIII come hell or high water. I have said since this began, eventually Russia will have had enough of American bombs, targeted by Americans killing Russian civilians in Russia. WWIII begins when Russia reaches that point and attacks the NATO marshalling areas of these weapons in Poland.

If the zeepers/neocons don’t believe this will dramatically raise the risk of tactical nuclear weapons use by Moscow, I have a bridge to sell.

If the Russians do not want to be attacked within Russia then they should stop attacking Ukraine. You reap what you sow. (And no, this will not start WWIII.)

McCaul’s map was from Victoria Nuland’s ISW - Institute for the Study of War.

Those red pins inside Russia validates what the Russians have been proclaiming all along. That they needed to have Ukraine and Belarus as buffer states between them and NATO armed Europe.

This argument was put out prior to Finland and the Baltic states becoming part of NATO. Russia is now practically surround by NATO forces.

The globohomo’s are insisting on starting WW3. They WANT to achieve their twin goals of wiping out Russia and wiping out 95% of the earths population.

The ones that need to be wiped out are the Deep State globohomo’s. /spit

Nobody can predict how the Russians would respond if they are attacked in Russia with US & Nato supplied weapons. The Russian government & military leadership are fully invested in the Ukraine war, but perhaps the majority of the Russian population are not. An attack inside Russian with US & Nato supplied Russia would solidify support for Putin from the Russian populace, as 9/11 unified Americans for a while. I don’t think Russia would nuke the US, or any Nato country, but I wouldn’t put it past them to use a tactical nuke in the Ukraine to up the ante.

Just give the UKR and other bordering nations tactical nukes then we don’t have to worry about what Russia does -we’ll know.

They’re leave UKR and remain inside Russia’s borders lest what they’ve done to their neighbors is done back to them.

That even gets us further towards WW3. It is the Cuban missile crises all over again with the US and Russia in reverse positions.

Mother Russia will not use tactical nukes. She wants to continue to live, even in abject poverty

Like I said, I don’t think the majority of the Russian populace support “Putins War”, and Russian bombs on Russian villages turns more Russions against Putin. Attacks inside Russia by Ukraine with US missiles/bombs would have the opposite effect in my opinion.

Yeah but it was a dangerous time, we were very close to WW3. The clown show running our country today is a far cry from JFK. Brinkmanship with Biden and his team, yeah that’s the ticket....
