RFK Jr urges Biden not to approve long-range missiles for Ukraine: 'Reckless escalation'
FoxNews ^ | 9-14-2024 | Anders Hagstrom

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. slammed President Biden's administration for continuing to provide Ukraine with long-range missiles on Saturday, arguing it was a major escalation of the conflict.

Kennedy called out both Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken in a statement on X, formerly Twitter. He made the comment in relation to reporting that the U.S. is set to approve Ukraine using long-range missiles to strike inside Russia.

"Putin's war in Ukraine has been a massive failure – hundreds of thousands of casualties, a brain drain, a million Russians have fled, Sweden and Finland are now NATO members, the list goes on," former CIA Moscow station chief Dan Hoffman told Fox News Digital. "The only thing he succeeded at is rhetorical nuclear brinkmanship and other threats, trying to induce the Biden administration not to give Ukraine what they need, when they need it, to defend themselves."

Hoffman said Putin’s remarks were likely tailored to Biden and his administration, which has repeatedly been slow to send Ukraine sorely needed defense equipment like tanks, F-16s and long-range ATACMS missiles before then reversing course and eventually agreeing to send the top weaponry.

"He makes these threats because he knows they work," Hoffman argued. "We shouldn't be micromanaging how [Ukrainians] conduct their war.

"Secretary Blinken, President Biden — STOP IT! Stop this reckless escalation. I say this not as a political partisan, but simply as a citizen of the world," Kennedy wrote.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said his regime will "take appropriate decisions based on the threats."

The only way our long range missiles can hit targets inside Russia is if American or NATO satellites are used and someone in the US is typing in targeting solutions.

That makes America's and NATO's satellites fair targets.

I have no dog in this Ukraine/Russia squabble. Nevertheless, RFK Jr is right. We should have absolutely nothing to do with this war. Provide no missiles. Send no money.

This is Europe’s problem. If they want to provide long-range missiles, go for it. If they want to provide pallets of cash, go for it. Just leave us out of it.

This will be a test to determine whether we have a Space Force or a space farce.

What would be the “wrong choice” for Joey to make?

With Joey’s history of making WRONG CHOICES, guess what choice Joey will make.

Space is the new military frontier. Whoever controls the space around the Earth controls the planet.

The cartel behind Biden will not take any advice from RFK Jr.

Their minds are made up, do not confuse them with some very stark realities. Poking the bear is NEVER a wise course of action.

Keep in mind: we are not even close to paying for the Valhalla of
Zelensky’s mega-billion dollar scam......the “rebuilding” of war torn Ukraine.

Knowing how this guy operates....it could be said Zelensky’s secret agenda
is to invite more war damage to get his hands on even more billions later.

Kennedy had best watch his mouth. Big Talk like that can get you assasinated on a golf course.

We can’t stay out. Joe and Hunter and their friends have received way too much money for us to just quit. We are committed.

Two-time Medal of Honor winner General Smedley D. Butler agrees with you.

I am wondering if the Trump (attempted) shooter today has an account here.
They released news that he is a rabid Ukraine supporter (and Demoncrap donor and voter).
