Blinken hints at lifting UKR restrictions on strikes in RUS

I will support Ukraine to the end.

SLAVA Ukraine!

What's the end look like?

World War 3?

Who gives a shit?

JD Vance shared an inaccurate cat meme.

Russia blinked. The red line that they intimated would result in nukes has been crossed, and Russia did.....NOTHING.

Ukraine invaded Russia's Kursk region nearly unopposed, taking American and European light armor with them and Russia did nothing.

Now, Ukraine is attacking Moscow itself, burning oil refineries around the country, and still, what has Russia done? Nothing.

If Russia's nuclear arsenal is in any way like their Navy, then it is unkept, decrepit, and likely non-functional.

Not saying they couldn't drop one from a plane, but if they escalate, likely they will see themselves not only at odds with the West, but China as well.

Yeah, Austria thought that too at one time. They were right, until they weren't.

Going up the escalation ladder is a dangerous game. You can't assume they'll never react.

Whether they drop one or not depends on how threatened they feel. Like say, lifting restrictions on long range weapons.


There's a lot of division in Nato about lifting these restrictions, because it would be escalatory.

I suspect we're doing a bit of sabre-rattling on our own. We'll see.

When did I say I didn’t want Ukrainians to fight for Ukraine? That’s a straw man.

I will say that it’s getting harder and harder for Ukraine to find Ukrainians to fight for Donbas. That’s well documented.
