Ukraine hit a Russian weapons arsenal with US-made ATACMS missiles that it fired across the border for the first time, according to two US officials, in a major escalation on the 1,000th day of war.

Summary

Ukraine fired US-made ATACMS missiles into Russia’s Bryansk region, marking the first time Ukraine has used these longer-range weapons to strike targets deep inside Russia.

The attack comes after the Biden administration authorized Ukraine to use these weapons against targets inside Russia.

In response, President Putin updated Russia’s nuclear doctrine, labeling aggression from non-nuclear states supported by nuclear powers as a joint attack on Russia.

    feels very odd to watch an American president do correct things for the wrong reasons.

    Lol, war with Iran… A correct thing?

      No, I’m referring to getting us out of Afghanistan and Syria specifically.

      But you’ve noted, surely, that the US does largely support war with Iran by funneling WMD’s to Israel, right? Unless you voted Green, you explicitly lent your support to it via your ballot.

        No, I’m referring to getting us out of Afghanistan and Syria specifically.

        Oh yeah, how are the people in those two countries doing now?

        you’ve noted, surely, that the US does largely support war with Iran by funneling WMD’s to Israel, right?

        Yeah, it was pretty much guaranteed after the pull out from the nuclear deal…almost like elections have consequences.

        Unless you voted Green, you explicitly lent your support to it via your ballot.

        Lol, it’s a two party system. If you voted green you still lent your support to supporting a genocide, just in an incredibly stupid way.

        We all pay taxes to a government supporting a genocide, some of us just don’t want it to get even worse.

          I could not care less. I’m more concerned with how people are doing here in the US.

          Yeah, it was pretty much guaranteed after the pull out from the nuclear deal…almost like elections have consequences.

          I’m sure feeding WMD’s to the Israelis for use against Iran won’t be problematic for that.

          Lol, it’s a two party system. If you voted green you still lent your support to supporting a genocide

          False. The Greens are the only party expressly opposed to helping Israel murder people at will, but you can create whatever justification you like for the support you lend to it.

            Lol, at least you admit it.

            I’m sure feeding WMD’s to the Israelis

            I’m pretty sure you don’t care about that.

            The Greens are the only party expressly opposed to helping Israel murder people at will, but you can create whatever justification you like for the support you lend to it.

            Again, I think you need to look up what a two party system is.

              Thank you for the discussion.

              It’s fascinating to watch you and others engage with people who you know disagree with you in this way, especially after two weeks ago.
