Russia summons the American ambassador over a deadly attack that Moscow says used US-made missiles
ABC News ^ | June 24, 2024 | The Associated Press

Posted on 06/24/2024 5:46:03 AM PDT by McGruff

The Russian Foreign Ministry summoned the American ambassador on Monday to protest what it says was the use of U.S.-made advanced missiles in a Ukrainian attack on Russian-annexed Crimea that reportedly killed four people and wounded more than 150.

Washington “has effectively become a party” to the war on Ukraine’s side, the ministry said in a statement, adding, “Retaliatory measures will certainly follow.” It did not elaborate.

Kyiv’s forces have relied heavily on Western-supplied weaponry since Russia’s invasion more than three years ago.

It’s obvious that this ends in a general war between NATO and Russia before the Russians are able to complete their victory over Ukraine this summer. Putin understands the NATO end game as well. Look at the the intensifying provocations, the concert hall terror, attacks on nuclear early warning radars, ATACMS all over Mother Russia, more “ISIS” terrorism all over Russia. US ATCMS cluster attacks on civilians might be the final straw.

Have you checked to see what projected fallout zone your house will be in.

The U.S. has invaded more foreign countries and toppled more governments in my lifetime than the rest of the world combined.

Nobody should feel obligated to keep a straight face when any American sanctimoniously complains about Russia invading a sovereign neighbor.

Am I wrong that this was debris from a shot-down missile? I believe I saw that 4 of 5 missiles were destroyed completely, but this one was hit and missed its intended target and killed civilians.

First NATO arms terrorists who commit atrocities in Russia against peaceful Jews and Christians. Then the US is effectively attacking Russia with missiles using Ukraine as its catspaw. Gee, I sure hope NATO troops don’t attack a Russian radio station just across the Russian border from Poland.

How much more can peaceful Russia take? /Off Sarc

If Russia armed an enemy of the US, or in your case Canada, with advanced weapons and then aided in an attack in which women and children were killed on a beach in Florida or in your case somewhere in Toronto, I would expect America/Canada to retaliate. The reverse happened in this case when America armed Ukraine and then guided an attack on innocent ppl. As to your point about Russia going home, they are home. This Russian/Ukraine war started long before 2022, so it’s probably best you get up to speed before leading headfirst into an argument.

“Maybe the Russians should leave Ukrainian territory and go home?”

How is that the business of the US?

I do not believe we know yet with certainty

But I can believe the US drone circling over the sea is providing firing solutions to the missiles the US gave ukraine.

Muscovites began as barbarians, and remain barbarians.

And they're proud of it!

Williams, you have been wrong about Biden’s warmongering from the start. Why would anyone listen to you now?

I predict that you're going to be awfully disappointed when it doesn't. Stock up on antidepressants.

I believe these missiles are GPS guided...by satellites. A US drone in the area makes a convenient squirrel to point to, but it’s likely for recon purposes.

...they are home...

Even you know perfectly well they're not, but you repeat Putin's lie for some twisted reason of your own. I wish I knew what it was.

In SIMPLE terms....Just because you've stolen my car and given it a paint job doesn't make it yours.

“How is that the business of the US”

I suppose if yo see a mugger attack an innocent person you would say that was none of your business. An intenational war monger with super power attributes is a danger to everyone on the planet and it is definitely our business.

We have no business meddling in Ukraine government and starting color revolutions to install people that will do our bidding over the welfare of their own people.
