NATO members Romania and Latvia say Russian drones violated their airspace
CBS ^ | 9/8/24 | CBS

Two NATO members said Sunday that Russian drones violated their airspace, as one reportedly flew into Romania during nighttime attacks on neighboring Ukraine while another crashed in eastern Latvia the previous day.

A drone entered Romanian territory early Sunday as Moscow struck "civilian targets and port infrastructure" across the Danube in Ukraine, Romania's Ministry of National Defense reported. It added that Bucharest had deployed F-16 warplanes to monitor its airspace and issued text alerts to residents of two eastern regions.

Watching the NATO troop buildup.

The same drones would have been flying over Sumy region watching the Kursk build up.

China has violated our airspace numerous times. Did we nuke them yet?

The Chinese kill tens of thousands Americans with their fentanyl, each year, and yet we do nothing.

Our own government successfully killed many around the world (including US Citizens) with its intentional covid plague. So what?

Before covid, remember the stories of Obama using drones to knock out targets halfway around the world?

Even this news triggers the anti-America posts.

Are you referring to the Chinese balloon? Other than that they have not entered our airspace.

You always post some gibberish that makes no sense and never can explain what it means.

99 Red Balloons

Clean LyricParagraph Lyric
You and I, and a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we’ve got
Set them free at the break of dawn
‘Til one by one, they were gone

Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, “Some thing’s out there”
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic lads, it’s a red alert
There’s something here from somewhere else

The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine Decision Street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry

This is what we’ve waiting for
This is it boys, this is war
The President is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine knights of the air
Riding super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone’s a super hero
Everyone’s a Captain Kirk

With orders to identify, to clarify and classify
Scrambling in the summer sky
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine dreams I have had
Every one a red balloon
Now it’s all over and I’m standin’ pretty
In this dust that was a city

If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go

I post Nuland, before God and the universe, laying the entire sordid US Colonial policy since days when they killed Kennedy and check your response.

Gibberish, my big toe. It’s not so much the job anymore, you enjoy it too much.

Say, is that a wrench in your pocket or have you and the Circulars been dreaming up a new narrative?

Heh CJ, I forgot to check my program on the CJs you got going on threads I post. I haven’t gotten to looking at the J you’ve got going on a thread about Nuland I’ve just posted.

If you haven’t seen that thread yet. Go read it, do your thing. Then copy and paste my last reply to you to it.

Again you aren’t making and sense other than confused anger, read the article you posted and that I commented on the responses to.

The article, remember the news article?

Come to think of it. My reply is all too appropriate for the J you have here.

I know! Let’s hijack this thread and discuss which of your replies to me in threads I start are genuine targets of CJs and which are not.

What do you think about the those particular CJs?

You do know who's in charge of the military for the last 4 years, no? NONE of those in charge now will admit to any violations of our airspace or land or waters. Nd they tried to make the balloon case into a 'dont-worry-about-it" kind of affair. Would you trust people like that as your bodyguards. If the balloon had not been noticed by someone in his backyard, the incident might have gone unreported. How many more went unnoticed and unreported? Likely a lot. Biden and his cabinet members did not want to raise any alarms to which they would have had to respond, like they did when the balloon was shot down, but after it had crossed the entire country. Biden was more into trying to avoid international incidents than he was about protecting the country.

I've said the same thing many times in the past.

But, the Ukraine invasion by Russia is not the same kind of incident.

We have leaders now who try to avoid international incidents at the expense of American lives. we don't want to anger China while our young are being killed by them. So, in reality, those in the White House now are just as guilty as the Chinese and Mexican drug cartels. Will we hold them accountable of will people just vote them in again. If we vote them in again, then those voting for them are just as responsible as the Chinese and Mexican cartels. Vote Trump in, and perhaps the killing via Fentanyl will stop or get reduced tremendously.

But, the Ukraine situation is not equivalent to the Fentanyl crisis.

And yet the areas the Russians have taken are majority ethnically Russian, and voted for pro-Russian politicians. Obama’s Ukrainian Spring disrupted everything.

Texas became more ethnically American than Mexican, fought for independence, then became part of the US. How is that different from Donbas?

We have Texas and the Southwest, yet Mexico is still there.

What I have discovered is the level of ethnic HATRED and historical grievance-fest towards ethic Russians and Russia itself is off the charts. It’s not Christian.
