At Meeting with Zelensky, Lloyd Austin Suggests Long Range Attacks on Russia are on the Table

Wait, so are we doing this?

We’re allowing US servicemen who run the missile systems in the Ukraine to attack Moscow?

Is that what is going on here?

Does that seem like something anyone would want to happen? I mean, anyone with any kind of basic sense about the implications of full-scale war with Russia? Would anyone want that?

Do we want to go into poverty over the Donbass? Has anyone voted on this?

Lloyd Austin literally works for Raytheon.

He’s also a stupid nigger.

What is going on?

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin cautioned on Friday there was “no one capability” that would turn the war in Ukraine in Kyiv’s favour after President Volodymyr Zelenskiy urged the West to let his forces use its long-range weapons to strike Russia.

At a regular meeting of Ukraine’s allies at Ramstein U.S. Air Base in Germany, Zelenskiy repeated his plea for Western nations to supply more long-range missiles and lift restrictions on using them to hit targets such as airfields inside Russia.

He won’t just target airfields, by the way. He will attack civilians.

That’s the only thing the Ukraine does: they kill random people in terrorist attacks.

Austin said Washington and its allies would continue to give strong support to Ukraine in fighting Russia’s invasion, announcing another $250 million in U.S. security assistance.

But, questioned by reporters, the Pentagon chief pushed back on the idea that allowing deep strikes inside Russia with Western weapons would be a game-changer.

He said Russia had already moved aircraft that launch glide bombs into Ukraine beyond the range of U.S.-supplied ATACM missiles.

“There’s no one capability that will in and of itself be decisive in this campaign,” Austin told reporters at the end of the meeting.

He also said Ukraine had capabilities of its own – such as drones – to hit targets inside Russia that were beyond the reach of ATACM and British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles.

There are a lot of targets in Russia – big country, obviously,” Austin said. “And there’s a lot of capability that Ukraine has in terms of UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) and other things to address those targets.”

Among other donations, Germany pledged to supply an additional 12 self-propelled howitzers to Kyiv, while Canada said it planned to send 80,840 surplus small unarmed air-to-surface rockets as well as 1,300 warheads in the coming months.

So he hasn’t actually said it, directly. He’s just talking about the drones they already have.

But the implication is that long-range weapons to attack Moscow are now on the table.

This isn’t even going to work.

The Ukraine screwed themselves with this stupid invasion of Russia, which caused their frontline to collapse.
