BREAKING: Ukraine Targets Putin with Drone Strike on the Kremlin
Russia has accused Ukraine of attempting a drone attack on the Kremlin with the aim of killing President Putin.
Russian officials said Putin was not injured, and that Moscow shot down two drones.
If you try to kill the king, don’t miss. I don’t believe for a minute that this drone originated in Russia. The Ukrainians have been pushing for a long time to strike Moscow. We have been holding them back.
“Mr Putin had not been hurt and his schedule would continue as normal, the statement said. Fragments of the drones had fallen on the Kremlin site but no-one had been hurt, it said.“
Look for pictures of the fragments to be released soon.
Seems like a Red Storm Rising moment?
These MFers really, really won’t quit until we are in another World War.
OR
Russia’s own drones crashed and they had to ‘splain it ...................
Russia has been trying for monts now but consistently fails
What a stupid move. Of course Russia will retaliate in kind.
“...Of course Russia will retaliate...”
Impossible because Russia is already attacking Kiev regularly. The 23-year dictator in the Kremlin needs to be reminded that Ukraine will continue to humiliate him and his armed forces. The countless Russian war crimes in the Donbas, including the trafficking in children, must be stopped.
Cue FDT
To your second sentence, "yup." As for the first, the last thing our adversaries want to do is unseat the current cabal. DC is probably the safest place in America right now, at least from nukes.
For sure our guys are behind this. For sure.
It might trigger such an attack--although I doubt it--but would not justify it. Anyone who thinks so is insane.
Makes me wonder if the drone wasn’t ours. Biden is probably secretly hoping for a war to get his failures off the front page and help him with his reelection
Justify in the sense of it would be according to Russian military doctrine. Ethically, that’s more a personal call. Objectively not as Russia is as guilty or more than the West/Ukraine in starting this war.
The Kremlin in no uncertain terms should proclaim that this conflict is about Russia’s independence from the emerging one world government...and that Putins’ replacement will be harsher.
God bless Pres Putin and a pox be on all the houses of his enemies.
No, this war is about Ukrainian independence. Russia can be independence without invading other countries.
You can’t launch a drone that size from Ukraine
It doesn’t have to be launched from Ukraine.
Putin started the war. Zelensky did not. Russia invaded Ukraine - not the other way around.
Zelensky started the war when he allied with NATO after being assigned power by Western forces after a violent terrorist coup. That was an act of war against Russia. Wars don’t just start when the first shot is fired. That is naive. Study military history and theory. When Athens brought Megara into the Delian league - the predecessor of the Athenian empire - they knew they were provoking war with Sparta. They made it look like a defensive alliance knowing Sparta’s Pelopponesian allies would insist on attacking Megara, drawing in Sparta and making Sparta look like the aggressor.
This is a very old and well known technique used by many empires - including the American one. Heck, the deep state knew damn well that having an obviously fake 2020 election would bring a violent backlash and thus make Trump supporters look like the aggressors. But they struck the first blow.
The American empire provoked this terrible war. Russia fired the first shot . Both are to blame.
