Russia gets missiles and drones from Iran, that it uses to strike deep into Ukraine

What’s the difference?

America expected to provide materiel and munitions to allies...*Lusitania sinks*

The world would be a better place if Britain declared war on Russia and lost.

Britain under Starmers has become a communist state.

Escalation like this simply moves the timetable up and shows who the Winner of the conflict is. For those not paying attention, the Winner is going to be Russia, and Ukraine is setting itself up for a major beatdown.

Apparently, you were repeatedly dropped on your head in your youth.

And in your old age.

[Kazan]

You're going to find out real quick how merciful the Russians have been if one of those long-range missiles does any real damage.

The Russians can and will takeout the entire electric grid in Ukraine. They could decide to level every government building in Kiev.

There is no difference. F**k both Ukraine and Russia. Trump is wise to stay silent on the issue. He warned Putin last week not to "escalate" and Vlad is doing just that, and then some. Why should Trump give a shit if ZZZ hits Russian targets? Well deserved and not our problem. There isn't going to be a WWIII, because Russia knows damn well it would be erased.

Among other things, range. The Iranian stuff does not have the 150-200 mile plus range of ATACMS or Storm Shadow. Russia has *not* been buying the counterparts to Storm Shadow, etc., from Iran.

When you are siding with a Soros, you are doing something wrong.

[iamgalt]

Precisely, it may not seem like it but Russia has limited how hard they hit because they don’t want to have rebuild all the stuff they destroy. If they start getting real damage from missiles that’s over.

[kiryandil]

I wonder what the blast radius of a Russian tactical nuke is?

The Ukies and their "advisors" had best be wondering, too - and not be around the launch sites for too long.

Or, if they're air-launched, best not be hanging around the home airfield.

[Does so]

Kamikaze drones doing well...

Trump is wise to stay silent on the issue.

Biden and Trump likely agreed on this step during their meeting last week in the White House. Trump staying uncharacteristically silent would be part of their arrangement.

Sure. Trump will transform into Joe Biden on day one of his presidency.

[SaxxonWoods]

Gen Wesley Clark said it will help keep Kursk for a while but make no difference in the outcome of the war. He says this about Biden’s general war strategy: “War doesn’t work that way.”

I think O’Biden is just trying to delay the collapse until after he leaves office so Trump can be blamed.

[know.your.why]

Of course he’s staying silent. He’s already on record a dozen times warning about WW3. Does someone need to hear it again? Would it matter? No and no.
