Biden is a lame duck president with NO PUBLIC MANDATE and subterranean approval rating, he got ousted by his own party before the election for being mentally incapacitated, his defense against a Justice Department inquiry is he's too old and senile, his party just got BTFO in a national election. No NATO or NATO proxies have ever launched long range missiles into Russia in living memory. How is this guy brump fit for office

STOP EATING CRAYONS AND DO YOUR FUCKING JERB. "Senile old man sends young people to WW3 out of spite"

we need to ban the usage of 'WW3'

[this user supports Russia but does not think they're gonna start firing off nukes anytime soon - happy to be proved wrong but I don't think anyone on Hexbear.net has their eyes on Putin's nuclear briefcase]

WW3 is not shorthand for nukes. It's shorthand for multiple countries engaged in a simultaneous hot war on the basis of alliances and mutual escalation. Russia v Ukraine is not WW3. Russia v Ukraine and USA is the beginning of WW3. Russia and China and Iran v Ukraine and USA and Israel and UK and France and Germany is definitely WW3. No nukes required

Who cares.

It's a weapon that Ukraine has, they're at war, it's not a nuke, it ethically doesn't matter whether they made it themselves or received it as a gift*, of course they're going to shoot it at a target in the country that destroyed their infrastructure and turned part of their countryside into a no-man's-land and is occupying places they lived just 3 years ago.

If you wanna get mad at American weapons being used overseas in illegal wars, there are plenty being dropped on defenseless people, out of Israeli aircraft, every single day.

The reason this is a big deal is because Russia is the 3rd biggest military in the world, and Ukraine would not be able to strike Russian territory with long range missiles unless the USA intervened. This creates a potential casus belli between Russia and the USA and if Russia chooses to ignore it then it sets the conditions for additional escalation of the threat against Russian national security. It's not a moral issue.

Ukraine isn’t using it, American personnel are. This is America shooting missiles directly at Russia, qualitatively changing the conflict from a proxy war to a direct war.
