re: Latest Updates: Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Yes.

That's not interpretive at all. That's an overt act. This is what everyone here wants, so might as well go ahead and do it.

If they are driven in on trucks into the far Western border with Slovakia and Hungary, like arms have been doing since this began (and the West’s supply line to Ukraine have been publicly acknowledged), then the interpretation is somewhat mitigated to “supplying” rather overtly participating. (At least that’s what Putin seemed to have been interpreting until his statement today considering that Russia had not attacked NATO* yet.)

However, directly flying into the airspace armed (and who can say they aren’t armed) is a step above. Most jet-mounted missiles have ranges that exceed the horizon, putting Russian troops in danger. Combine that with taking off from Polish bases and that math adds up to solid participation rather than supplying.

*Considering that Putin has not yet attacked NATO, it seems like he is still operating on sane mode in not considering the supply of arms as requiring direct conflict...despite what he proclaimed today.

What I am hearing is nonsensical, and can’t be right, must be a error or something. Not repeating it, thought maybe something online could shed some light on it but nothing.

Sorry for asking, must be bad info

Man would you shut the frick up?

Javelins have already destroyed 220-230 Russian vehicles as of a few days days ago. I assume some of those were occupied

Exactly.

Kyeiv soon

He doesn’t have complete air superiority, so he can’t do that, which has to biggest surprise of the whole damn thing.

Apparently the ghost of Ukraine is real or something

Then why should risk this escalation to give Ukraine 75 fighter planes if the current Ukrainian Air Force is wiping the floor with Russian MiGs?

I’ve said from the beginning that overt action should not be taken until a Russian fires on a NATO nation. But we have every right as sovereign nations to supply another sovereign nation with arms.

I swear to God if I hear the word sovereign again…

Is there even such a thing as an unsovereign nation?

I’m not. If Putin’s nukes are as ‘effective’ as his military then B-2s should be taking a big fat shite on this supposed convoy.

PT losers will never admit it, but Russia’s military is all a giant bluff

You're trying to have your cake and eat it too. You either want in this thing or not. Supplying fighter aircraft, possibly armed taking off from a NATO country will 100% be considered an act of war and will likely trigger a response that is reasonably justified.
