We are gathering intel for their enemy. They took out our drone with some jet fuel and maybe a fender bender.
Wreckless? Looks like they accomplished exactly what they wanted to accomplish without firing a shot.

Why are they even releasing the footage at all? It’s a non-event UNLESS you want to use it as an EXCUSE to escalate into a full blown war.

They waited for Russia to go try to get the drone parts before they thought about doing it.
We have idiots running the asylum.

I don’t want war. A “proportional response” IMHO would be making it clear that our stuff remains untouched or those SU27s aren’t going to be usable for much.

It does make Russia look retarded. They may as well have just shot it down. Same result. I guess they’re trying to disable it so they can recover it.
I don’t really care to go to war over them damaging some equipment that technically is probably us giving them a middle finger by flying it around there surveying them and them giving us a middle finger by downing it.

we need to remove our people, weapons, and spying BS out of that area
YESTERDAY
So what is the draft age these days?
Could anyone say what the first bit of US interest lies in the lies of Khazaria?
Anyone?
and, moron government censorship and psyops aside, just what do you have against white people to join in the Khazars attacks of them?

One thing is obvious, the Russians could have blown up the drone with a missile, but chose to bring it down gently in order to recover it, and reverse engineer it. This is no surprise as we are in a proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. I can’t say that I necessarily blame them.
They were trying to dump gas on it it just to be obnoxious and almost killed themselves

If it can be used to back the narrative and drum up public support, why not?
Is saying "Russian downed a drone over the Black Sea" a narrative?
What if its just actually what happened?

Well they destroyed our property in international airspace by being dumbasses. Generally nothing comes of it.

We have deployed the Reaper drones for 15+ years. Russia, China, and whomever else is interested already knows everything they want to know about it. IIRC, several have been downed over the Middle East during our various clusterfricks. The Russians, Iranians, and whomever else almost assuredly got their hands on some of them.

Well being a military pilot I can tell you running into another aircraft under any circumstance is dangerous. Accidentally is extremely dangerous.

What top state secrets will Russia or anyone else get out of this? That clipping the propeller of a drone will bring it down? It's not like we gave them the plans to the deathstar. It's airplane 101. Damaged propeller causes aircraft to go down. The reports on what happened were already out there.
And reckless has a lot of definitions, one being "irresponsible". I think that most would consider intentionally bringing down another nation's aircraft over international waters is "irresponsible".

Video is easily faked.
Our institutions have lied to us so much for so long, how can we assign any credibility to anything they put out?
