Russian invasion of Ukraine

[ultimateharold]

i hope Poland responds by giving Ukraine it’s most up to date high tech military equipment with the instructions “use it how you deem fit”

They've been getting plenty already but more is always good. PL has been stocking up on more up to date gear to replace it.

What a surprise a BBC correspondent casting doubts saying it must have been a mistake

Obviously it's a mistake? Why would it be deliberate?

As are the pentagon, who know a damn site more the dicks who want WW3 posting on here.

Why have they said it was a mistake?

Obviously it's a mistake? Why would it be deliberate?

To test Nato, and why Obviously?

To be honest this was inevitable if you fire that many missiles at once, and with all the air defences around the various Cities, it's only a surpise it's taken so long, probably not good for russia that it's happend in the middle of the G20 conference though, possibly the worst timing (unless it was intentional).

I can't see it changing much at this point, though I expect the words to get stronger, much stronger.

Hopefully NATO will use it as justification for a member state to supply some more advanced long range weaponry to Ukraine.

Is that not pretty likely though? I can’t see a polish farm being top of Russians military targets. The bbc suggestions are not completely implausible.

1 missile could be an accident but more than 1 landing at the same location would seem deliberate.

They have American made equipment that the Americans wouldn’t allow them to send to Ukraine
Hopefully this incident will make the Americans relax that restriction

 

[frothy]

It might have been a mistake though. When hundreds of missiles are fired it’s inevitable that some will go astray. The bigger surprise is that it’s taken so long.

So that makes it ok?

Could be a deliberate mistake to test NATO or fracture the West. Plausibly explained as a mistake but was intentional.

What would be a good outcome for Russia from this test?

1) Nato stops supporting Ukraine for fear of more attacks from Russia.
2) Nato continues as is, and Russia continues to have its arse kicked.
3) Nato supports Ukraine even more, and Russia gets its arse kicked even harder and faster.

(1) isn't going to happen so there's no possible good outcome for Russia. They're not that stupid.
